The multi-company event will be held on the afternoon of Wednesday 26th February 2020. It will focus on providing a chance for all Aston University students to network with some amazing brands whilst improving their employability skills, which will support them with their future job application processes.
Lets be honest, wouldn't you want a challenge mock assessment centre at one of the biggest brands before the application period?!
Our objective is to deliver a high quality event by having widely-recognised companies and organisations from different sectors.
We are Aston Bright Futures Society part of the MyKindaFuture brand. The society has 7 committee members including an additional 4 brand ambassadors. We work with leading businesses across a wide range of sectors and organise employer-led events that benefits students at university who are looking for career-related opportunities.
We have around 73 members in our society in addition to 181 who are registered within the MyKindaFuture brand since August 2019.
We have already contacted 43 companies for the multi-company event. We are also looking to expand our network within the university and help as many students as possible with their career prospects.
Previous organisations we worked with have included Shell, Capgemini, Microsoft, and Deloitte - just to name a few!
• ‘Most Diverse Society of the Year’ in 2012/13
• ‘Most Inclusive and Diverse Society of the Year’ in 2016/17
• ‘President of the Year’ in 2016/17
• ‘Best Impact with Campus Networks’ in 2018/19
• ‘Society of the Year in 2019’ in 2018/19
• Bright Futures have never organised such a large event; this is a new challenge we have set ourselves. We want to help as many students as possible especially 1st years who are looking for internships, 2nd years who are undertaking a compulsory industrial placement programmes and final years who are looking for graduate opportunities.
• We want to collaborate with public and private sector companies; who are willing to present prospective students ranging from 1st years to final years who are looking for career opportunities to maximise their potential!
Its important for us as a brand and for the university to help students by having these types of events.Your donations will enable us to grow as a society and host new events aimed to help our peers.
