Candidate Testimonials
From candidates who have attended our Job Fairs
"This is my first time at a jobs fair and at first I found it difficult as it was busy but after going on a second loop, I found a role that I will be applying for. The face to face contact with employers is fantastic and they are very happy to answer any questions. I would definitely recommend coming."

"I have been made redundant from a leading management role and have never experienced this situation before in over twenty years of work. The idea of a jobs fair had never registered with me before but has come as some relief to me. I think that the lists of available vacancies is fantastic and the various employers who are available to talk to are a great idea. Thank you for the opportunity. "

"Burnley Job Fair is a great place to start- it’s great to see employers and recruiters face to face and build those networks. They can answer questions directly in a way that’s more personal than online."

"Really good event, a lot of employers that are eager to speak to you and find out more about you. You are able to ask employers questions that I probably wouldn’t be able to get answers for from just a job description. Good way to see what roles are out there and learn about business values and what the recruitment process is like."

"I’m losing my job in August working in a section of the NHS, so thought I’d come and see what opportunities are available now so I don’t go long without a role. It was worth speaking with companies even if it was to build up some contacts!"
