A well organised event, friendly team, and a good flow of students from different universities showing interest in our opportunities.
GradFest is THE up-and-coming event for all employers! I was blown away by the quality and quantity of candidates in attendance and trust they will form a huge part of many company's recruitment season.
Brilliant event with strong attendance and useful conversations. The organisers planned everything well and our ambassadors enjoyed the day! We left the event feeling like it had been a successful and that attendees would be applying for our graduate roles.
