News release: Just the job for north west graduates

Abstract

The University of Central Lancashire is bringing employers and graduates together in
Preston for its second annual graduate recruitment fair on Wednesday 29 May. All
graduates are encouraged to come along and meet representatives from industry,
commerce, the public sector and the services, who will be searching the area for the
rising stars emerging from education this year*.
Graduates will also get an opportunity to talk to institutions about postgraduate study;
look at alternatives such as voluntary work; explore the possibility of work placements;
talk to careers' advisers about job applications and CV s.
Peter Rankin, the University's Head of Careers said, ''This is both a chance for our
students and graduates to meet employers face to face and for employers to showcase
their organisations. These are real vacancies and our new graduates will be there to show
just what they can offer to employers".
The Recruitment Fair will be taking place in Foster Building, the University of Central
Lancashire from 11.00 am to 4.00 pm. Please contact the University Careers' Service on
01772 892584 for advice, or check out the website www.uclan.ac.uk/careers.
