Joining a club or society can significantly enhance your University experience and your employability. Make sure to watch our Online Societies Fair to find out more about the benefits involved.
Joining a society, or better still being on the committee, can enhance your employability skills such as team working, leadership, time management skills and, depending on your role, finance skills, project / events management skills, marketing and social media skills. It can make your CV stand out and provide examples of your skills to highlight in interviews and applications.
