Bridie Killoran (Head of the Careers Service) GMIT says, “It is so rewarding to talk to final year students about all the exciting opportunities that are available to them now compared to five years ago. Employers seek GMIT graduates because they believe they have the necessary skills, adaptability and knowledge to take their place within their organisations.  In 2017, 92% of our graduates were either in employment or further study six months after graduating.”

“It is also great to see many of the same companies return each year including the ABP Food Group, Aldi, Cisco, Ericsson, Fidelity Investments, Kepak, Lidl, Linesight, Siteminder, and many more. For the full list of organisations attending, see:  http://www.gmit.ie/graduate-careers-fair
