TOP TIPS Asking killer questions Ensure to turn up prepared with questions that will help you decide if a particular organisation is the one for you.

These might be about work culture, long-term career prospects, opportunities to work internationally and opportunities for professional qualifications. You may also wish to ask questions about recent news stories or big issues facing a particular organisation or industry.

Avoid asking questions which are easily answered with basic research.

Get ahead of the game For top tips, etiquette and best practice when preparing for a Careers Fair, read the resource document created by our careers consultant team at: careershub.city.ac.uk/docs/37/Making-the-Most-of-CareersEvents.pdf

Making the most of your time with employers The Fairs will take place on Symplicity. During the Fair employers will be hosting presentations about their organisations as well as one-to-one chats wih students. Find out more about how to use the Symplicity Fair system and and see the schedule of the group presentations at: https://buff.ly/3AW6GWv

Getting off to a great start Remember that employers are there to meet you too. Expect to be asked questions such as ‘tell me about your course and why you decided to study it’ and ‘what interests you about our organisation or field?’

Introduce yourself with your name, course and year of study.

You may want to say a few words about your career aspirations, areas of interest and why you have approached the employer in front of you.

Notes

On the day

DO

Approach the employer as you would do for an interview – first impressions count Start conversations with expressions such as “I am interested in...” or “I know about your company and would like to find out more about...”

Be proactive, keen and upload an up-to-date copy of your CV to the Symplicity platform ahead of the event Briefly outline your knowledge of the company and express enthusiasm in what the company does Ask employers what skills and experience they require so you can tailor your responses to what they are looking for Use the space in the guide to note down the name of anyone you enjoyed talking to. If they inspired you to work for their organisation, mention this in your application form Dress to project a professional image – present yourself as you would at an interview Follow standard virtual etiquette, keep your microphone on mute unless speaking and make others in your household aware that you will be in a video meeting.

DON'T

Monopolise a single person during presentation Q&As Ask questions that a quick search of the employer’s website could answer for you Dress too casually (jeans, trainers and baseball caps are not recommended).

What would your ideal candidate look like?

“We are looking for individuals from a range of academic disciplines. There is no ‘standard’ Bank of England employee.

Even if you have never thought of working at the Central Bank, you might be the right person for us. Our ideal candidate will have an open and curious mind, not afraid to challenge existing ideas, thinks with an analytical approach and is not afraid to share their views and opinions.” Bank of England

“Our ideal candidate is someone with a degree and internships in business, HR, finance, or something related.

Someone who is a great communicator and a self-starter. Someone interested in technology and consulting. Our associate consultant position is best suited for self-starters who are eager to work with customers and dive headfirst into all phases of Workday system implementations.”

Collaborative Solutions

“Bring your energy and enthusiasm and we'll give you the freedom, support and opportunities to grow a meaningful career. Students need to share our valued behaviours as they shape our culture and reflect what we expect of ourselves and each other: do the right thing, never settle and better together.”

Standard Chartered Bank

“We are looking for candidates who embrace the Programme’s core value, career exploration. The Programme provides the chance to explore careers different from those traditionally associated with their degree. You don’t need experience to be eligible for the Programme but we are looking for students who demonstrate proactivity, enthusiasm and professional etiquette.”

City, University of London Micro-Placements Programme

“The ideal candidate would be dependable, able to structure both their thinking and written output, attentive and a team player. We are looking for someone who has studied economics, or a related subject, holds an interest in policy and has an ability to use analytical skills and critical thought to deliver solutions to complex challenges.”

Cambridge Economic Policy Associates

“Ahead of anything else, we look for individualism and diversity in our graduate intake – so it's very important at every stage of the selection process that you take every opportunity to show us what you're really like. Be honest and above all, be yourself. Bear in mind that we'll also be looking at your application form for evidence of knowledge of the property industry.” Savills UK
