UniSA Business students are invited to our 11th face-to-face speed-networking event, building on the success of our April 2025 event.

Meet industry professionals actively seeking interns and placement students in a fast-paced, face-to-face networking session. You’ll connect with employers matched to your discipline and explore even more opportunities in the open networking segment.

Get access to resources to best prepare for the event and how to craft a 30-second pitch that goes beyond just asking for a placement. This is available right now on the dedicated networking event Learnonline site.

FAQs

What do I need to prepare? You will have a 30 second 'elevator pitch' outlining what you're studying, what your interests are, and when you are seeking to undertake a placement.

Will I have the opportunity to meet every/any industry partner I want to? Due to the scale of the event this is likely not possible. However, we do try and rotate people as much as possible. These rotations are all formulated prior to the event based on preferences noted by industry partners when registering. This worked well at the last event and will be improved further based on lessons learned and participant feedback.

Will you share the list of Industry Partners prior to the event? Yes, this is located on the Event-specific Learnonline page that UniSA Business maintains, we will include this in pre-event updates in the fortnight preceding the event. We recommend you undertake some research prior to the event to assist you when connecting with the industry partners.

Venue COVID-19 Rules (Will be updated as required)
There are currently no restrictions relating to COVID-19 however we will still be providing plenty of hand sanitiser and you are welcome to wear a mask if that makes you feel more comfortable.
