"I’m a recent graduate and I found this job fair really useful as I wanted to see what jobs and sectors were open to me in the Leicestershire area."
Weronika, Leicester Jobs Fair, 23/07/2025
"I have recently been laid off, so am looking into different avenues for a career change. Having looked on indeed I found it more difficult to decide where I would fit, I’ve come to the jobs fair today and have had a look round a few different options with Marston holdings and the DVSA sparking my interest. It was well worth my time coming today."
Spencer, Southampton Jobs Fair, 18/07/2025
"Nice relaxed atmosphere. It was good to be able to pick and choose what interested me from a good selection of stands. The people at the stands were very informative and helpful."
Isabelle, Burnley Jobs Fair, 27/06/2025
"Today was really useful to speak with career help services about the support they offer and how to access it. It was also good to speak with these experts about where the demand for work currently lies."
Ellie, Burnley Jobs Fair, 27/06/2025
"I have been made redundant from a leading management role and have never experienced this situation before in over twenty years of work. The idea of a jobs fair had never registered with me before but has come as some relief to me. I think that the lists of available vacancies is fantastic and the various employers who are available to talk to are a great idea. Thank you for the opportunity. "
Kevin, Brighton & Hove Jobs Fair, 27/06/2025
"Burnley Job Fair is a great place to start- it’s great to see employers and recruiters face to face and build those networks. They can answer questions directly in a way that’s more personal than online."
Kate, Burnley Jobs Fair, 27/06/2025
"Really good event, a lot of employers that are eager to speak to you and find out more about you. You are able to ask employers questions that I probably wouldn’t be able to get answers for from just a job description. Good way to see what roles are out there and learn about business values and what the recruitment process is like."
Anisa, Burnley Jobs Fair, 27/06/2025
