All current Employers are confirmed, but attendance may vary on the day - Please be aware there is a national train strike planned for the 5th October, which may also affect exhibitors.

 

This fair hosts organisations from multiple sectors all of which are either advertising part time, casual jobs, vacation work or internships. Our Fair is also open to agencies working on behalf of companies. Many part time roles are local to Exeter or Penryn and Summer vacation roles are national and international.
