2025 Business and Law Expo
Meet representatives from New Zealand’s top companies and law firms.
Why attend the expo?
"The speakers at the event were very helpful, informative and friendly. There were plenty of great companies to get to know and I was pleased overall with the info I gathered from the event."
The annual CDES Business and Law Career Expo is the perfect event for students interested in exploring professional services roles or careers in the business and legal sectors. Open to students from all majors and subject areas, the expo offers a valuable opportunity to connect with a diverse range of organisations.
Organisations attending the event typically include top law firms, the Big 4, financial and professional services firms, infrastructure and construction firms, and professional membership organisations. We also host other New Zealand companies (e.g. in the medical, agricultural and supply chain sectors) that are looking to attract students interested into the professional services areas of their business.
The expo provides a fantastic opportunity to explore a wide range of organisations offering internships and graduate roles. Attendees can connect with staff members and gain valuable insights into each organisation's opportunities and work environment, giving them a valuable head start in the professional world.
