2020 has been a year that none of us could have predicted or planned for and it has changed the way we have had to manage career guidance for students as well as the way that students are accessing information about their future career choices.

Fortunately, LikeToBe has developed the technology and platform to offer students an experience resembling a traditional career event in a digital format with the following benefits:

• 24/7 year-round Access
• Ask questions at any time in the forum
• Access a range of employers and professionals in one place
• View organisation profiles to learn more about them and their opportunities available
