This week we were at the Live & Work in Birmingham 2015 event, organised by BPS Birmingham Future, which focuses on students who are looking to secure the next step in their careers after graduation.
The event, now in its third consecutive year, was specifically created to give students the best opportunity to meet top employers from around the Midlands, who are looking to hire graduates and give them the helping hand they need to get themselves into the world of work.
We were amongst over 40 employment and lifestyle exhibitors and brands including Deutche Bank, DLA Piper, Deloitte, Lloyds Bank, DWF, GVA, Mondelēz International, Colliers, FleetMilne, Envision and many more.
The day brought lots of bright young individuals from Birmingham-based universities and colleges, who wanted to find out what local employers had to offer them.
BPS Birmingham Future provide opportunities for young professionals to become Birmingham’s future business leaders, through helping them to build their personal and professional profiles with free networking events, mentoring schemes, workshops, seminars and more.
So if you’re a Birmingham-based student planning your next move after university, or you’re looking to move to the area to start your career, BPS Birmingham Future can offer you the support you need.
