Are you ready to meet your future employer? You can prepare for your job search, and connect with well-known, local and international companies at the RSM Graduate Jobs Festival 2021. The companies are keen to hire RSM graduates and master students, as you embark on your journey to bring your forward-thinking, ethical and sustainable principles into the business world.  

Grab your chance to talk to the right people to make sure you grab the position you want! Plan your own tour through the event. Visit the companies that interest you, decide which sessions to attend, and apply for speed interviews.
