The Virtual International Career Fair we are organising is free of charge for employers. If British Chamber of Commerce Southwest China or any of your members are interested to participate, you will have a virtual ‘booth’ to raise your profile on campus and advertise your vacancies. Interested students will leave questions for you to answer. You can also have a virtual lecture theatre to present in front of the students (presentations can be pre-recorded and uploaded in advance), and have a live chat afterwards.
The fair will be taking place in w/c 20 March.
To set up the ‘booth’ we will need:
– Your company logo – as a high resolution JPEG or EPS
– A sales statement, theme or message to be display across your booth

If you would like to hold an employer presentation in our virtual lecture theatre, my colleague Ellie Shepherd (copied in) will get in touch shortly to confirm a slot in w/c 20 March for your presentation/live chat. One slot lasts one hour.
