Milkround School Leavers will welcome pupils thinking about their 18+ options to a London careers event as part of its ongoing drive to provide young people the chance to speak face-to-face with employers.
Senior Marketing Manager Francesca Hall said: “National Careers Week and National Apprenticeships Week put options at 18+ firmly front-of-mind for pupils, parents and teachers so it is important they are all getting a broad range of information on everything from going to college or university on a long term career path right through to starting out in an entry level job or apprenticeship.
“The supplement in The Times today aims to provide food for career thought and highlights our commitment to only the most insightful advice about real opportunities for school leavers. All the articles can be found on our advice site which sits alongside our jobs board with 100s of apprenticeships, courses and jobs for 18+ plus The Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide 2016 league table for help choosing the right university.
