Dear LSR Member,
It’s the TechStartupJobs Fair on Tuesday next week (11 September) and it’s going to be a busy one! There are already 200 job seekers registered with 17 companies exhibiting and presenting which means there are plenty of jobs for those of you looking. The venue is pretty much at capacity now so grab the last few tickets before they all go! There are only a couple more lightning slot opportunities for employers left now, and you can book those online too.
Re the job fair: I’m looking for someone who take photos on the night, between 6:30 – 8:30pm so email me if you’re interested.
On that note, for all you employers out there, a reminder that our Partners HR Insight are offering an initial, free consultation (worth £180) to our members where they can review your HR practices and advice you on any appropriate improvements. You can find out more and book this here.
Enjoy your weekend!
