VUT hosts annual career fair to connect students with industry leaders

This year’s career fair is much bigger and far more exciting, we have more reputable companies from all industries, just to name a few, the likes of Coca Cola Company is present, Lion Match, LANCET laboratories, and two Eskom Power stations, all present and eager to meet and engage with our talented students.

Adding to the dynamic atmosphere is a high-energy activation by Power Play, where students are enjoying cold refreshments and lively outdoor activities that blend fun with information.

Sanlam also brought extra excitement to the event with a prize-giving competition. The lucky winner will be announced next week at our offices.

In a new addition to this year’s format, we are making use of the African Languages Auditorium (PS Building) for company presentations. Unlike the larger White Marquee, this space provides a quieter, more focused environment where students can engage in in-depth discussions, ask informed questions, and make more meaningful connections with industry representatives.
