Sign up to the Oxford University Careers Fair

At the Oxford University Careers Fair, you will be able to meet a number of major recruiters, compare different organisations, and find out about graduate and work experience opportunities. Not all the recruiters participating in this event are giving a presentation in Oxford this year, so this may be your only chance to meet them informally.

Whether you know precisely what you want for your future career, whether you are still deciding, or whether you are just starting to think about your career path, this is your chance to find out more.

Recruiters

The Oxford University Careers Fair is designed to present students with a range of graduate opportunities, across a variety of sectors, and to highlight the diverse roles available. This is our only fair with a broad non-sector specific appeal and so we are keen to attract employers from a variety of sectors ranging from retail and manufacturing, the creative arts and communications, to non-profits and teaching, covering both national and local businesses, as well as professional organisations.

The fair falls at the beginning of our Autumn term, when undergraduate and postgraduate students are highly motivated in planning their careers and looking for opportunities. This is a key time to engage with them, before the full rigours of the term take over and when they are very receptive to broadening their horizons by hearing about your varied roles. This fair is therefore an ideal opportunity for you to raise awareness of your organisation and discuss your opportunities with Oxford University students.

If you want to get involved, find out how you can register on our recruiter information page.
