Feedback from attendees so far
"I have recently completed the Careers Accelerator Programme with Keele University. This was a very helpful few days and gave a great insight into the recruitment process. Not only does it show you have to view your application through the eyes of an employer, but it also helps to build your confidence by reflecting on your personal and academic achievements"

“Attended the Careers Accelerator Programme (CAP) by the Keele Careers team and it was truly insightful about the job application process. My personal favourite part was the Planned Happenstance theory which is creating events which can turn into opportunities. I am glad I took the chance to be a part of this workshop as I now have a clearer idea of what I need to next, thank you Ben, Bernadette, Sarah, Andrew, and Robert, for such a great session over the last 3 days”
