The weekend will have speakers from HSBC and Amnesty International. The weekend will also take into account the whole process of finding the right job for you, from accessing what type of companies you want to work for, different ways to get interviews and what to do in the interview itself. They have developed a range of activities with a fantastic range of speakers to take you through the process.
