The Big Meet

THE BIG MEET

 

 

What is The Big Meet?
The Big Meet is a one-day careers fair which is promoted to all students from all universities in the host city. Big Meet events will take place in Perth, Melbourne and Sydney in March 2011. All Big Meet events are organised by the Australian Association of Graduate Employers (AAGE).

 

 

The Concept
The Big Meet Careers Fairs have been created as a result of feedback received from employers from both the private and public sector. Employers have asked for a cheaper or more efficient way of promoting themselves to potential candidates rather than attending several different careers fairs in the same city. Each Big Meet event is held at a purpose built exhibition venue at a central location.

 

 

The Benefits

  1. The Big Meet Careers Fairs offer a range of unique benefits:
  2. Promote your organisation across an entire city in just a single day.
  3. Promote your organisation to students from several universities at a single event.
  4. Access over 2,000 genuine job seekers. 
  5. Receive contact details for all candidates who pre-register for the event.
  6. Students wear badges indicating their university and year of study.
  7. Floor plan and exhibitor spaces clearly indicate the residency requirements of each exhibitor.

 

 

Why Exhibit?
The Big Meet provides the perfect solution for exhibitors wishing to maximise their exposure to potential candidates whilst minimising their costs. If you have limited time, resources or budget, The Big Meet is the ideal way to reach the right students from a range of universities in one day. Feedback from previous exhibitors confirms The Big Meet as one of the best careers fairs in the country.
