Careers events for International students

The below careers events include those run externally in collaboration with other universities and external partners, and events run by Careers Network targeted specifically at International students.

Some events give our International students information on how they might find employment within the UK. Other events may be run by global employers who are aiming to recruit International students for work in non-UK arms of their business.

Asia Careers Insight Series

Asia Careers Insight Series (ACIS) took place on 7-9 March 2023. This was an opportunity to familiarise yourself with organisations looking to hire students and graduates across Asia and includes a series of employer presentations, panel discussions and skills workshops to help you enhance your employability and become more attractive to local and international employers. 

ACIS sessions are designed for all students and graduates – regardless of nationality, degree or year of study. Many organisations will consider a number of nationalities when recruiting and offer a variety of opportunities, from internships, placements and graduate schemes to part-time roles and roles undertaken remotely. 

Recordings will shortly be available from the 2023 Asia Careers Insight Series. Recordings are also available for the webinars from the ACIS which took place in March 2022.
