Preparing for Open Days and Events

✅ Research the organisation/organisations as much as possible. Read the “About Section” on their website. Explore their social channels and visit their LinkedIn page

✅ Prepare some interesting questions. Try not to ask ‘basic questions” like “What do you do” because it shows that you haven’t researched and aren’t interested. If you research, you can say things like, “I can see that you do (X); what else do you do?

✅ Take a notepad/device for note-taking. Be prepared to ask for emails/web links to get more information on the opportunity. You don’t need a hard copy of your CV but do need to be ready to send it if you are asked for it.
