[JOB DATE 2026] From Student to Professional: Land Your First Job in the UK

Applied to countless jobs but still not getting interviews or being ghosted by the recruiters?

You are not alone in this journey.

Many international students and recent graduates spend months sending applications without understanding what recruiters are actually looking for.

JOB DATE isn't another lecture about writing a CV. 

It's an interactive workshop designed to help you identify what's holding your applications back and give you practical tools you can start using immediately.

Together, we'll explore why applications get ignored, how recruiters actually assess candidates, and how to turn your experience into stronger job applications.

During the workshop, you'll:

🎯 Identify what's holding your applications back
🔍 Learn how to decode UK job descriptions
✍️ Turn your experience into stronger CV evidence
💡 Gain practical insights into the UK hiring process
🤝 Connect with like-minded students and professionals

After the workshop, stay for dinner, networking and boardgames because sometimes the best career conversations happen after the workshop.

Open to all:

✔ Final-year undergraduate student

✔ Master's student

✔ Recent graduate

✔ Looking for internships or graduate jobs

✔ Feeling stuck with your UK job search
