Let’s CHat: International Careers is part of a series of industry networking events for current pupils and Old Waconians (alumni). Parents are also invited to attend. The event will consist of a panel discussion during which industry professionals will give a brief overview of their careers and the path they took to get there. Following this attendees will have the chance to speak to a broader range of professionals and ask questions individually while enjoying light refreshments.
