National Career Service area manager Martin Ford said: ‘When applying for a job it is vitally important to get the right CV, while top interview techniques will really make you stand out from the crowd.

‘I encourage everyone who is looking for work or a change of career to come on the day to improve their employability skills.’

Representatives from dozens of industries including the Armed Forces, car agencies, retail and more will be on hand to offer jobs and advice.

In total, 50 exhibitors will offer in excess of 500 jobs and apprenticeships.
