The north’s biggest digital careers fair returns to the first direct bank arena Leeds on Tuesday 30 September.
The free-to-attend Leeds Digital Careers Fair, hosted by Leeds City Council, will see over 50 leading digital and technology companies from across the region, including this year’s sponsor, Bank of England, showcasing career opportunities at all levels, providing details of training opportunities, and giving interactive demonstrations and talks.
In addition to having access to some of the north’s biggest digital employers, attendees can also speak to training providers offering courses such as T-levels, apprenticeships, boot camps, and degree courses.
On the day, some of the biggest names in tech, such as Microsoft, will host a range of interactive sessions and talks covering topics such as ‘building an interactive app’, ‘using virtual reality for health and safety in construction’, ‘tips for getting hired in the tech sector’, and ‘jobseeker AI’ workshops.
Attendees will also have the chance to see local community radio station LDC broadcasting live from the event, meet social media personality Danny Malin, get free professional LinkedIn profile headshots, and access financial management and careers advice from seasoned professionals.
