The UK Careers Fair will come to Sheffield next week with employers seeking to keep talent in the community whilst appealing to all sectors of the workforce.
The UK’s number one platform for face-to-face recruitment connects with companies nationwide and stretches across more than 80 locations. This free event brings together job seekers with local businesses and can lead to new job opportunities.
Head of content for The UK Careers Fair, Joanna Lawson said: “Our events connect job seekers with industry professionals and raise awareness of jobs within the area, keeping talent in the community rather than people seeking employment elsewhere.
“Those looking to switch careers or re-enter the workforce after a break for whatever reason, can explore new industries and pathways. Engaging with employers in this type of supportive environment helps job seekers build confidence in their own abilities.”
On Thursday 20 March, between 10am – 2pm, the event will be hosted at Sheffield Town Hall, offering a vast range of opportunities for potential career paths.
Individuals of all backgrounds, experience levels, and fields of interest will be encouraged to attend. From recent graduates to seasoned professionals, attendees can find a wide range of career opportunities across sectors such as healthcare, technology, retail, education, and more.
Ms Lawson said: “My advice to someone going to one of our events for the first time is not to worry, be yourself, be open minded and interact with as many employers as possible. You may attend thinking that you may wish to work in the hospitality sector, only to find that you actually want to pursue a role in transportation and logistics.”
Job seekers may also find flexible and work from home opportunities along with resources such as career guidance, access to national job boards and CV advice, which guests will be encouraged to bring.
The UK Careers Fair stresses how maintaining a positive attitude and open-mindedness is crucial to keeping you motivated and focused whilst making the event more worthwhile and enjoyable.
Whether you’re looking to kick-start your career, explore new industries, or find your next job opportunity, this event is the place to meet with potential employers and take the next step in your professional journey.
