King's College London Vacation Work and Internship Fair : Fairs :King's College London Text only Current students Staff Contact Feedback Search You are here: Home > About > /... / > Academic registry > Careers > Events programme > Fairs Fairs must be changed for each item -- Careers Fairs King's Careers Info Fair King's Law Fair King's Vac Work and Internship Fair King's Part-time Work Fair Making the most of careers fairs Representing your organisation at fairs King's College London Vacation Work and Internship Fair Print version To help both students and recruiters, the careers service hosts a fair specifically aimed at vacation work, internships and placements for the Christmas, Easter and Summer vacations. Many students do not have the chance of a work placement as a formal part of their course but they do want to use their time during the vacation as an opportunity to gain invaluable experience (and supplement their finances!). At the same time many organisations approach us each year with vacancies (whether one-offs or formal internship schemes). This event brings these complementary needs together. The 2005 fair will be on Wednesday 2 November from 14:00 to 17:00. Information for visitors Vacation jobs, along part-time work, are a great way to supplement your finances and gain valuable work experience. Previous exhibitors have offered a wide spectrum of vacation opportunities from leisure camps to finance in settings ranging from volunteering to highly structured formal schemes. See our article Making the most of fair . There is no need to book: just turn up on the day. The Fair is open only to students/GradClub members of King's College London and other member institutions of The Careers Group, University of London consortium . Information for exhibitors This is an excellent forum for filling all kinds of schemes whether you have short work experiences placements or longer, formal internships, and whether the opportunities are for paid work or volunteering programmes. Meet hundreds of students keen to make a contribution in the real world of work. If you would like to exhibit at the 2005 Fair please contact Claire Charlton or download the booking form through the link at the bottom of this article.

Larger post offices will offer more service, including domestic and international parcel post, telephone calls, domestic and international express letters, Internet service and currency exchange.
The post can take some time to be delivered in Russia. For quicker and more reliable service, use American Express if you are a member or a private delivery service.
