Sector Focused Careers Weeks

Our sector-focused careers weeks host a curated calendar of targeted recruitment activity during our Michaelmas and Epiphany terms. As a hybrid approach, each Sector Careers Week will include a mix of in-person and virtual events, providing plenty of opportunity to connect with exceptional students looking for employment and work experience in your sector.

If you would like to host your own recruitment event separate to the careers week campaign, please take a look at Other Recruitment Events.

Please read Durham University's Careers Events Terms and Conditions before reaching out to hold an event with us.
