Participate in Navigating the London CF Webinar + Q&A

Let's start your preparation here together!

The most common question is, "When and what kind of preparation should I do before the London Career Forum in February?"

Two past participants who received job offers, will share their schedules and key preparation points.

They will also share their "Self-PR" and "Gakuchika" that helped them through the interview process.

A one-time-only event, this is a must-attend webinar for UK & EU students, as it will also cover the schedule of all the upcoming official London Career Forum support content and how to utilise each one.
