2 Employability Festival: Programme of Events
INTRODUCTION
The University of Kent is committed to preparing its students for

graduate employment. The Employability Festival is organised by
the Careers and Employability Service so that Academic Schools,
Professional Services and the Students Union can come together to
offer students an exciting range of events.
As a student you can get valuable advice for personal development on topics such as CV writing,
interview tips, work experience, learning what employers want from graduates, balancing part-time
work, study and much more. You will receive Employability Points for attending talks and workshops
(see below for more information).
The Employability Festival includes several bespoke mini-fairs; Work and Study Abroad Fair
(Tuesday 24 October), Kent Union Volunteering Fair (Wednesday 25 October), JobShop Recruitment
Fair (Thursday 2 November) and Language Jobs Fair (Friday 3 November) located in Keynes Atrium
and of course Kents annual Careers Fair (Tuesday 31 October) where you can meet and speak to over
100 graduate employers looking for students just like you.
Use this programme to keep track of whats happening to help you decide what you want to get
involved with, and dont forget to join the conversation using #EmpFest17
We look forward to seeing you soon!
