GradConnection Virtual Event

Looking to apply for internship or graduate opportunities this year?

Meet the Employers is back – join a day relevant to your discipline and top grad employers will share all you need to know about getting a job or internship with them this year.

Hosted live on the virtual platform Airmeet, you’ll be able to:

  • Listen to employers pitch to you at live presentations and learn about all the opportunities on offer
  • Chat directly with employer representatives and have the option to practice your interview skills (if you’d like!)
  • Make yourself known to potential recruiters and get a head start in your career journey!

Have you always wanted to ask a current employee what a day in their life looks like? Or are you simply scoping out different companies to get a feel of what you might like? Come along! Each day will be dedicated to a specific industry with a diverse range of employers, and no matter what stage of your degree you’re in, we recommend attending!

Get a head start in your career and register now!
