The Cooperative Education & Careers Division is organising a major on-campus Careers Fair on
Thursday 4 October 2018. The Fair will take place in the Sports Arena
and will be open to students from 12.00pm until 4.00pm.
What's it all about?
For those of you who have never attended a Careers Fair (or Recruitment Fair),
this provides you with a unique opportunity to meet with a number of employers
who plan to recruit graduates in the year 2019. Some of these employers will
also have immediate vacancies to fill.
What companies will attend?
We will have more than 160 organisations participating in the Fair. This will
include large and small companies, local, national and international companies,
across all disciplines. What they have in common is an interest in meeting
students who may be potential employees in 2019. Details of participating companies are included in Opportunities 4 U
2018/19 which will be available in hard copy in September at the Careers Service,
EO019.

SO DON'T MISS OUT!
This is a special careers event which is designed for Education students, and others interested in teaching opportunities. The Careers Service is organising a Teaching Fair on campus on Wednesday 7 March 2018 in EGO10 between 12.00 and 3.00pm. The idea is to provide final-year and postgraduate Education students with information on some of the teaching opportunities that will be available on graduation.
We expect to have 40 organisations attending the Fair, representing schools, education support services, teacher recruitment organisations in Ireland, UK and some international schools. Representatives from these organisations will be available to meet with students and to advise them on what kind of jobs will be available and how to apply for vacancies. This event is open to students from all disciplines and all years of study.
