0:07 It's really nice after covid to come back and be in one place and meet potential employers face to face and really

0:14 see what's out there. It's hard to ignore all the opportunities that are ahead of me when they're

0:20 literally in the room in front of you and it's so nice to be out and about networking and meeting

0:25 people who have never done it before. Know what you want coming in filter out what you don't want

0:30 look for what you do want. Come prepared and ready to sort of present yourself as an opportunity

0:36 rather than just being given an opportunity, you know have confidence in yourself too. See yourself

0:41 as an asset and sell yourself to these potential employers.

0:48 So at this point, this event is really really crucial for me because I'm in my final year now so I am already looking for a

0:54 graduate job and obviously I've spoken to so many employers to generate leads so when I graduate and

0:59 I've got a pipeline where I'm going to go and I've got a job planned already.

1:04 So my best advice for future students would be to would be literally just get involved take part especially

1:10 in Bangor University. Bangor University has so much to offer, this is going to help

1:14 you build not your academic skills but your interpersonal skills which are really really

1:18 crucial in this competitive job market these days you don't only need academic skill you need

1:23 interpersonal skills as well these activities are a really important part of your studies.

1:32 It's really done well and I would like students to come in and you know like see this fair this festival

1:38 especially I would like to like request all the advice all the you know International

1:43 students to come and see that yes there are more like opportunities than you think there is.

1:51 So we've been developing like CV work right now so I've had a look at my CV and what sort of things I want to do

1:56 so that's really helped me for future career advice and things like that. It helps students explore different places they can go

2:02 ask questions that tutors or professors may not be able to ask. Come prepared

2:07 that's a massive thing do your research and even if it's just a five minute search into the

2:11 business do it. Don't be worried about asking silly questions because ask any question that you want

2:16 to ask they'll answer anything. Know what you're looking for it's a massive help if you go in there

2:20 with you don't really know what you're going to do your anxiety about this sort of thing

2:24 will go up massively know what you're going to do and you're going to be perfectly fine.
