  • Page within this section

With all the career options available to university students, it's important that you get an insider look at the different sectors out there and the many opportunities potential employers offer. A recruitment brochure can only offer you so much information, you need to speak to actual employees at the organisations that interest you to find out what it's really like to work there. And this is exactly what a TARGETchances event can do for you. Of course, TARGETchances also looks excellent on your CV and job applications. It shows that you have real insight into the sector that interests you, and that you're proactive when it comes to landing an internship or placement.

Student testimonials

It was great to meet professionals from so many different backgrounds and nationalities. Seeing all these different people come together made me realise that I have just as much chance as anyone else.
Kartik, University of Birmingham, Economics

I have had the chance to see how everyone operates in the legal practice, rather than relying on how I perceived it to be. You don't have to take their word for it on the brochures and websites; you can speak to real people to find out what it's like.
Bhavna, Keele University, Law with Criminology

I really enjoyed today's event. I am definitely going to apply to at least 3 or 4 of the companies who were in attendance; ones that before I may not have considered.
Carolyn, University College Dublin, Commerce

I found it so insightful to get an experience of how the financial sector operates first hand, which is so much more useful than anything that I could merely read about. The value of the event definitely exceeded my expectations and I consider it very well organised and structured so we were able to get an idea of the operations of a cross section of the varying departments. I am already recommending your services to peers and look forward to future events I may be able to attend!
Lucy, University of Leeds, English
