Ways of engaging with Cranfield talent

Industry networking events Host a stand, provide a guest speaker or simply come along as an attendee to a Cranfield subject specific event. You will be able to interact with our students and network with peers in your industry including Cranfield alumni. Employer speed dating sessions An excellent way to get to know our students through short one-to-one sessions. The conversation topic is up to you - It could be discussing a specific vacancy, a general career chat or providing students with your tips and advice on the recruitment process.

There are many ways as an employer you can tap into Cranfield talent. You may just want to consider one specific way or work with us to create a package of activity from our standard items that would best suit your company’s needs. Advertising a vacancy Access our online career and recruitment platform Symplicity www.cranfield-csm.symplicity.com/employers You can post job opportunities directly to our students and alumni, select target students to engage with and manage applications. On-campus recruitment activities can also be arranged and managed via Symplicity. Careers Fair Engage with over 1,200 postgraduate students across all of our subject specialisms at our flagship annual careers event held in November. Employer presentations Employer presentations offer you the opportunity to raise brand awareness, share an insight into your company and the industry you represent, provide an overview of recruitment opportunities and network with the target student audience.

“It was my first time here at the Careers Fair. Fantastic location, a huge amount of energy and passion in the room, both from the presenters and from the students themselves, so it’s really electrifying. “We’ve had some fascinating discussions with students and they’ve been telling us about the projects they’ve been working on, which have been really inspiring.” Nicola Thomson, Development Manager in Production and Supply, Syngenta

“We’re not necessarily looking for one type of person, we know that if someone’s come to Cranfield they’re going to be a committed, dedicated individual who’s very bright.” Joe Robinson, Plant General Manager, DPD Group
