"I came to the Brighton Jobs Fair today to look for work as I’ve not had much luck online. Been good to see and speak to employers face-to-face rather than submitting CVs online."
Kristina, Brighton & Hove, 21/06/2024
"Speaking directly to the employers was really useful. I prefer this to online applications."
Tejon, Leicester, 12/06/2024
"I was in the Army for 25 years, now looking to change careers. I’ve applied to Northern trains today. I’m going to go home and follow up with some of the other companies too."
Neil, Blackburn, 05/06/2024
"I’ve come today as I’m bored of retirement, I have a history in automotive manufacturing and I’ve been a brand ambassador. I wasn’t sure where my skills were transferable and I’ve spoke to multiple companies today and have come away with a good idea of type of jobs I can apply for going forward."
Steve, Doncaster, 24/05/2024
"I came in with an open mind and spoke to the majority of the companies. I enjoyed having the conversations I had and look forward to going home and following up."

Kelly, West London, 24/05/2024
"I’ve just been made redundant so I took the opportunity to step outside my comfort zone and pop to the Jobs Fair. It gives you a chance to speak to potential employers and a good variety of jobs, at small and large companies."
Rebecca, Bournemouth, 08/05/2024
"Really happy with the outcome of today. Had plenty of promising conversations with the businesses recruiting."
Stewart, Middlesbrough, 03/05/2024
"I wasn’t expecting very much from today but I’m very glad I came, I’ve found some really promising opportunities. I have even been offered a trial day with an employer which I’m looking forward to."
Morgan, Huddersfield, 01/05/2024
"I wasn’t going to come today, I only got my ticket yesterday. I’m so glad I attended as I have now found the pathway I need to help me move forward in my career. This has been so helpful to me and I’m glad I took the time to attend."
