We run a campaign of events each year to help raise awareness of careers paths in the creative & cultural industries.

The Scottish Graduate Jobs Fair is Scotland's largest summer recruitment fair, designed to help your organisation connect with and recruit high-calibre, graduating students from across all Scottish universities in a virtual setting.

Discover Careers is our highest profile on-campus event in Semester 1. The event will provide a discovery-themed, exploratory welcome into the world of careers, employability and meeting recruiters for students from any discipline, any level of study and at any stage in career planning. It is a great opportunity for all kinds of recruiters to connect with our talented students and to collaborate with us as we jointly provide students with a fun and friendly first taste of in-person careers inspiration in week 3 or 4 of the academic year.

The Careers in Law Fair is designed to connect organisations with legal career opportunities in Scotland, UK and/or international legal jurisdictions with talented University of Edinburgh LLB Law students/graduates as well as students studying other disciplines who are interested in legal careers.
