Event description

Year 10 speed networking and inspirational careers event

Business leaders participate in a series of 5 minute conversations with groups of 5-8 students who ask a wide range of questions about your role, career pathway, education and often salary! There are four sessions of 55 minutes throughout the day, during each session you will see 10 groups.

It is a good idea to bring banners, handouts, freebies, props etc. to produce an interesting and engaging table.

Speed networking offers students the opportunity to ask to gain an insight into the business leader's working life and receive advice on the skills that are needed to be successful in today’s economy.
