Jobs available at Hastings Direct. Meet them at the Careers Fair.

Hastings Direct recruits at Careers Fairs. Here are their top 3 tips to impress and increase your chances of landing a job.

 

What do they do?

Hastings Direct is an award winning insurance company with over 1.7 million customers and one of UK’s leading insurance providers.

Interested in working for a big company with a relaxed work environment? Here’s some advice from Rebecca Harper, Resourcing Executive.

Top 3 tips

1. Try and do some research prior to attending the fair. If you know that there will be some businesses of interest, have a look at their website and get a real understanding of what they do. We are always impressed with those students who know a bit about Hastings Direct and have clearly done a little bit of preparation.

2. Come open-minded, be confident and feel free to ask as many questions as you like. That’s what we are here for!

3. If you are graduating next year, bring along a copy of your CV. Despite the looming workload, it is never too early to start thinking about the big wide world beyond graduating.

Who are they looking for?

You. A well-rounded graduate.

They look for high achievers but also students that can bring something a bit different to the table, someone with new ideas and suggestions. As a fast growing business, they want to recruit future leaders who have bags of ambition, enthusiasm and vision.

What do I do now?

Dust off your CV, do your homework and look for employers you are interested in at the Careers Fair on the 4^th of November.

Why you should do your homework before meeting employers? Well, a Careers Officer once told me that asking “what do you do?” at the Careers Fair was like halfway through a date saying “so, what’s your name?”.

Don’t know who will be there? Here’s the list.

Let us know if you got a job, placement or internship at the Careers Fair. And if so, what kind of advice would you give to other students?

Good luck!
