Get Recruitment Ready 2025 Semester One
This employer-led event series is here to guide you through the application and recruitment process for internships and graduate roles.
Are you graduating or looking for internships?
Our 'Get Recruitment Ready' (GRR) series will help you if you're applying for internships, graduate programme, and other roles.
This series kicks off with a half-day bootcamp (aimed at penultimate and final year students), where a wide variety of employers will talk about their application process, how you can get to the top of their 'yes' pile, and give you inside information on the types of candidate they look for.
We'll be hosting several employer-led workshops following our bootcamp, which are open to all students. These workshops will focus on topics relating to the application and recruitment process.
By the end of the series, we hope you have:
- A better understanding of the graduate and internship recruitment process
- Increased your confidence when it comes to applying (e.g. knowing what you should/shouldn’t include on your application)
- Better awareness of the capabilities that employers look for in their new grads/interns
- Expanded your professional network and learnt about a variety of career paths
