• What are employers looking for in a fresh graduate?
• How do I start a career in marketing?
• What does an accountant actually do on a daily basis?
• How can I develop my employability?

If employers want to source work ready graduates, with the specific skills, knowledge and attitudes they value, they need to engage in a dialogue with students and faculty to share their expectations.

MIDDLESEX MENTORING SCHEME
