Pre-experience Skills Workshop: Commercial Awareness - Tuesday 15th June, 4-5pm

Commercial awareness remains one of the top five key attributes that graduate employers value most in candidates. In this one-hour virtual event, we'll be joined by leading commercial awareness expert and author, Chris Stoakes, who will give you everything you need to know to demonstrate this skill to employers you'll meet both during and after Internship Experience UK. Join us to discover practical methods to improve your sector and industry knowledge before your stream starts so you can get even more out of the live experiences.

Pre-experience Skills Workshop: Networking -Tuesday 22nd June, 4-5pm

At this year's experiences, there are even more top employers partnering with us, not to mention graduates currently working in the sector and fellow peers taking part in your stream. These are golden opportunities to maximise your connections and boost your chances of securing a role following Internship Experience UK - like 1000s of others did last year. World-renowned networking expert and author, Kelly Hoey, joins us for an exclusive one-hour webinar to help you discover how to make the most of each of these opportunities. You'll also gain practical advice on how to leverage all your new contacts to help you in your job search going forward.
