Parent/Carer Information Evening with PwC, HSBC, M&S & others!

At Young Professionals, we ran a ‘Your Child, Their Future’ Event back in September 2021 and we had a staggering 3000+ parents and carers attend virtually from all over the UK. After such an incredible turnout and amazing feedback, we are now planning our second parent information evening in February 2022.

The job market for students leaving school or university can be difficult to navigate and now more than ever we need to help our young people by making them aware of all the opportunities available to them, as well as providing them with advice and tips on securing the very best opportunities when they enter the workplace. Therefore, we would like to extend our invitation to all parents and carers to attend our ‘Your Child, Their Future’ Event on Thursday 3rd February at 6pm – 7.30pm.

We have leaders from some of the biggest employers in their industry including M&S, HSBC, PwC, Capgemini, Linklaters and more who will each come along to talk to you, as parents and carers, about how your son/daughter/young person can best navigate the job market to find some incredible work experience/internship placements, as well as graduate and apprenticeship opportunities. We will be sharing some useful tips around psychometric testing, how to prepare for assessment centres, putting together a CV, filling out application forms, as well as advice on how you can prepare your child/young person for the working world.

This event is completely free of charge and it will be running via Zoom on Thursday 3rd February at 6pm – 7.30pm. You will have the opportunity to join this event virtually with your son/daughter/young person, or the whole family and ask any questions that you may have, directly to leading employers.

The booking link can be found below here, so please do sign up if you would like to attend. The zoom link will be emailed to you nearer the time.
