On their Wavelength
Insights from research and real candidate journeys
6th August    |    Online    |    12-1pmOur experts reveal where candidate expectations and reality aren’t quite aligning, and where employers can have the greatest impact
Throughout Spring 2026 we surveyed 818 students, graduates and apprentices across the UK to understand how they experience the early careers market, the barriers they face, and how ready they feel for work.
In our latest webinar, we discuss what employers need to do to ensure that they’re driving engagement with content that really works.
