"I’ve come today as I’ve just received my degree in computer science, currently looking for a full time job using this or a part time job in between. I’ve spoke to AWE where I would be able to put my degree to use, and found a few companies offering part time work that would suit me. I'm glad I came today, it was really worth my time."

"A good place to see multiple job opportunities at once. I was able to have face-to-face communication with exhibitors rather than applying online and getting no feedback. Lots of opportunities in one place."

It feels a lot more accessible and has allowed me to make meaningful connections with employers, who have been very open and friendly. It has also allowed me to learn more about the values and culture of the different companies, to gain a deeper insight of what it would feel like to be part of their team and the support they offer to their staff. It has been a very engaging and interactive experience, and I would recommend these events to anyone seeking employment."
