Employer events & recordings
Attending an employer event is one of the best ways to find out about the world of work, direct from industry professionals. It's also an invaluable opportunity to build your confidence when meeting employers, and develop important skills such as commercial awareness and networking.
The employers and professionals who join us at all the events and sessions we run are all keen to meet you, tell you about the opportunities their organisation is offering, give you lots of tips as you take your next steps and share their career journey with you.
Many are Aber alumni too!
We offer a range of event formats - something for everyone, for example:
Sector-specific panels Different employers from the same sector discussing opportunities and trends and providing job search advice, with Q&A at the end
Ask Me Anything about... Insights from individuals and professionals about their career journey, their current role or even their recent placement year
Skills workshops Delivered by graduate recruiters, giving you the most up-to-date insight into current recruitment and selection practices
