Curio Insights
Innovating in employability
Show Notes

The global pandemic has accelerated innovation in employability. We're working with students who are eager to secure work in an uncertain economic landscape. Our work has shifted online, creating both opportunities and challenges for student and employer engagement. Some of our innovations have been successful, while others such as virtual careers fairs have fallen short.

By listening to this episode, you'll learn about innovations that might endure in the medium to long term, how we can best work with our students in the coming years, and where we might focus our efforts in terms of delivering exceptional employability offerings.
