A recruitment event was held in the hired@UCB suite to show students on UCB’s Health and Social Care and Childcare courses what opportunities await them after graduation.
The event was open to students studying college courses, apprenticeships and undergraduate degrees. Students in their final year of study were able to see the variety of career pathways and graduate schemes available, whilst first and second year students had the chance to speak to people about potential opportunities and how to develop their practical experiences by networking with industry professionals.
Attending the event were various recruiters advertising employment opportunities in social care and education such as care and classroom assistants or Specialist Educational Needs (SEN) workers as well as opportunities to work with very young children in crèches and nurseries.
Representatives from universities such as Worcester, Cardiff and Birmingham City University spoke to students about their courses. There were also stands for organisations such as Cultural Care, who were raising student awareness of au pair opportunities in the USA.
