Get involved with Bankside Futures this summer by volunteering for this fun speed-networking event.
This fast-paced volunteer activity is an opportunity to help local young people practice their networking skills and build their confidence to talk to new people. Networking is a vital part of everyone’s career, but many of us can still find it daunting. So this event is also a chance to practice your own networking skills and get to know volunteers from other Bankside businesses.
Ahead of the event, the Bankside Futures team will share an overview of the types of questions to expect from the young people, focusing on your current role and career pathway, along with some tips on handling difficult or personal questions.
There will also be a full briefing at the start of the event, and a chance to practice networking with the other volunteers before the young people arrive. It’s a great opportunity for anyone who wants to build their own confidence to network, making it an ideal volunteering opportunity for young professionals in particular.
