Applications Will Open in Semester Two
Employer Insight Visits
Visualise Your Future in a Real World Setting.
Employer Insight Visits will take place in Semester two 2025/2026
Employer Insight Visits give students the opportunity to spend a day in participating organisations to get an insight into an organisation and sector and observe professionals in practice.
The objective is for you to gain very important real life organisation insights into work and have the chance to engage in meaningful conversations and observations in a workplace setting.
The day itself will involve, but not be limited to: a facilities/site tour, opportunity to ask questions of the team, to include lunch and observe some work in action.
Details of companies involved and the dates of the opportunities you can apply to take part in during Employer Insight Visits will be found on our career management tool MyFuture once applications open.
Benefits of Employer Insight Visits
Benefits to students: Bringing a job to life and helping you to visualise your future in a real world setting to decide if a particular career is right for you, it also gives students the opportunity to observe professionals in the workplace.
Benefits to Employers: This is an opportunity to increase your brand profile on campus and to expose students to your company values. It offers graduate recruiters an early insight into student motivations and priorities when it comes to career planning and what they are looking for in a graduate role.
