It was very amazing to participate in the Jobs Fair. We met lots of employers and had discussions with them. We appreciate Compass for arranging this event. Thanks you. Legimms Bhaberes The event was well organised and the room was big enough for its purpose. Staff were friendly and efficient. Caroline Fitzgerald This event has been really useful to me as a student social worker.

Found some of the seminars useful. Sian Padfield, Student Social Worker Very worthwhile visit. Friendly staff and a good source of information. Well organised. Lynda Berriamn Event was very friendly with lots of give-aways. Good atmosphere without being too crushed. Nice environment. Rosemary Smith, Student Social Worker Found the children’s trust in Kent very interesting and a lot of valuable information given. BASW talk very good. Amanda Thompson, Student Social Worker Attended talk on trust of children and felt that it was very interesting to hear how other councils deal with youths and how they treat people involved with trust issues. Also felt that the seminars were very good in making people aware of the improvements that can be made which can improve a shared attitude in the field of social work. Emma Kirkland, Student Social Worker Very well organised and well informed staff. Maria McCormack Really good experience. Good chance to explore lots of different options for my future career.

Lucy Kimble It’s a well organised Jobs Fair. The exhibitors were very eager to clarify the doubts. Jijo Mathai Really impressed with the overall exhibition and information available. I found the seminars particularly useful and the information regarding jobs etc was invaluable. I feel much happier about applying for my first job in social work. Thank you very much, a very enjoyable day! Lucy Bethel, Student Social Worker A very useful day, there were lots of seminars and a great amount of choice. I attended 5 seminars and I feel much more informed about social work as a result of this. I was impressed with the number of stands at the venue, all stands gave helpful information and lots of leaflets. The Compass staff have been very helpful and well organised. Thanks for a good day! Laura Parkes, Social Work Student An excellent array of stalls with lots of information passed on with enthusiasm. Good to see the opportunities for employment that are out there. Excellent seminars – short sweet but very informative. Emma Blinkhorn, Student Social Worker A very useful visit. Information was available from a good cross-section of local authorities and agency employers. Venue for event was very impressive however, seating for refreshment was minimal, meaning we had to sit on the floor space. Helen Turner, Student Social Worker This was a very informative and helpful event. The seminars were interesting and the people on the stands were helpful and friendly. I hope I can find a job with one of the agencies I applied for. Victoria Chamberlain Very interesting, very good variety about different aspects of social work in terms of employment, career opportunities, stress relate issues and getting into social work. Irene Voerber Lots of positions, good day. Shirley Bailey
