Career Chat sessions are compact and designed to keep you up to date with the latest developments in the world of employment.

Presentations are held via Zoom, where participants can listen to presenters and ask questions about that session’s ‘Careers Chat’. For those that are unable to attend, the sessions will be recorded and uploaded for you to watch at your convenience.

Past Careers Chats have featured topics such as: Online Interview Skills, Staying Motivated While Applying For Work, Finding a Job While You Study, and more. You can catch up on past Careers Chats in CareerHub here.
