You'll be allocated to an employer (if you're a student) or a group of students (if you're an employer) and have the opportunity to pitch yourself. Employers will then be cycled round groups. Are they your dream employer to work for? Would they make the perfect candidate for the role you're trying to fill? Sign up now to find out!
