“I’ve spoken to a few target employers, and I’m happy to receive positive feedback from HR. We’ll discuss detail of the position in the upcoming interview. ”

Wenjia Wang, a student from the University of Nottingham Ningbo China (UNNC), shared her success in progressing to the next interview round at the University's Autumn Career Fair held on 14 November.

The event attracted over 100 leading enterprises, including Fortune 500 companies, state-owned enterprises, public institutions and listed firms, collectively offering more than 3,500 high-quality positions to UNNC students. Long queues formed at popular employer booths such as Alibaba Corp Real Estate, Decathlon, SF Express, Joyson Electronics and CITIC Securities, where students actively engaged with company representatives, sought advice, and submitted their CVs. A dedicated online section also enabled efficient connections with even more top employers.

In the competitive hunt for talent, HR professionals prize UNNC graduates for their unique blend of global vision, cross-cultural competence, and academic rigour—the qualities that make them stand out.

"What stands out is the comprehensive quality of UNNC students," noted Jing Wang, SF Group's recruitment specialist. "Their global perspective and proven ability to solve complex problems are a perfect match for our strategic goals and the competencies we seek."
