The industries covered will be Tech & Engineering, Accountancy & Professional Services, Banking & Finance, The Public Sector and Law.
Not only do attendees get an introduction to each sector, they’ll also get the chance to ask questions to a panel of professionals currently working in that industry! The panel will also describe how they got into their field and impart knowledge about how to successfully pursue a career in their sector.
