This fast-paced volunteer activity is an opportunity to help local young people practise their networking skills and build their confidence to talk to new people. Networking is a vital part of everyone’s career, but many of us still find it daunting. So this event is also a chance to practise your own networking skills and get to know volunteers from other Bankside businesses.
Ahead of the event, the Bankside Futures team will share an overview of the types of questions to expect from the young people, focusing on your current role and career pathway, along with tips for handling difficult or personal questions.
There will also be a full briefing at the start of the event before the young people arrive. It’s a great opportunity for anyone who wants to build their confidence to network, making it an ideal volunteering opportunity for people in the early stages of their own career journeys.
Participation in this event is limited to individuals who work in Bankside.
