Employer presentations and Career fairs

Bookings for Employer presentations and Career fairs will be made through myAdvantage.

The Employer Connect team are able to inform employers of the number of students booked to attend any bookable events; however, this is not always an accurate reflection of numbers attending on the day. We will use all steps possible to encourage attendance and offer a range of additional marketing options to employers, but we are unable to take responsibility in regards to student attendance on the day/evening of the event.

Job vacancies

Job vacancies may be published on behalf of employers subject to approval in accordance with our Vacancy Advertising Policy. 

And finally, what we expect of you:

• To make effective use of our services, employers are expected to take responsibility for their event bookings and job vacancy listings.
• To enable us to provide an effective and equitable service to all our service users within limited resources, we expect our services to be used with consideration and respect for our staff and other service users. This means attending events and appointments as booked and informing us within a reasonable period of time if you are unable to attend for any reason.
• To provide our service users with up to date, accurate information on our services, we use our website and myAdvantage.  We expect our service users to engage with our online resources and where possible use our interactive system for information on events, vacancies and making bookings.
• To ensure that our services meet the needs of our employers, we encourage feedback on what we do well and where we could do better, as well as information on any changing needs.
