Careers Fairs

Having a presence at school careers fairs can help to raise awareness of your organisation and any entry-level positions, such as apprenticeships, that you can offer young people.

Schools throughout Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire have started scheduling their careers fairs for the academic session 2024-25.

The form here allows you to check the list of dates and schools, and register your interest. Our team will guide you through the next steps once you have indicated that you are keen to support.

Mock Interviews

Participating in a mock interview with an industry professional is an invaluable experience for a young person who will soon be taking their first steps into the world of work.

Mock interviews can also help volunteers improve their own interviewing techniques and gain experience. We'll equip you with the questions and evaluation sheets - all we ask is an hour or two of your time. We're currently looking for support with mock interviews in the schools below. Please click on the relevant form link to view dates and times, and register your interest.
