• More than 50 companies and organisations participated in Career Day 2019.

• A unique bridge between our students and graduates with the industry. Multiple opportunities for internships or full-time jobs.

• Recruiters gave particularly positive feedback on our students’ professionalism, level of knowledge and readiness for the job market.

Another Career Day took place successfully at CITY College, International Faculty of the University of Sheffield acting as bridge between leading companies and organizations and our students and graduates. Aspiring to shape their future, more than 100 bachelors and masters students had the opportunity to explore industries, connect with employers, and talk to recruiters from many different sectors of employment. 

Themed ‘Shape your Future’, the event was organised by the Career, Employability and Enterprise Centre of CITY College and was an ideal opportunity for networking, bringing together students and alumni company representatives and recruiters from a variety of industry sectors.  More than 50 companies participated this year at the event, interviewed students and graduates to be selected for full time or internship positions, collected CVs for future openings, while at the same time helped them gain insight into the variety of career paths and current market trends. Company representatives gave particularly positive feedback on our students’ professionalism and level of their knowledge and readiness for the job market.

To better prepare our students for the event, this year the Career, Employability and Enterprise Centre organised a series of ‘Warm-up events’ before the Career Day that proved particularly helpful for our students.

Over the years the Annual Career Day has become a tradition at CITY College aiming at enhancing students’ employability skills and connection to the job market and also at bringing the industry closer to academia for a mutually beneficial relationship and exchange. The Career Day comes in line with our strategic goals and mission for extroversion and bridging of academia with the industry.

Our Career Day has often served as the jump-start for many of our alumni now enjoying a successful career and making a difference in Greece, Europe and all over the world!
