MY CSL STORY

George's Story

University is great but I am looking forward to finishing next summer and starting to get the career started. After going to CSL last year it was clear from the speakers that the more experience you could get under your belt the better.

After visiting the event in Sheffield I took the time to write to more than 50 local marketing companies and managed to get an 8-week placement over the summer in a small marketing agency.

I was a great experience and gave me a real taste of what it is like to work in marketing and has definately added to my CV for when I apply for jobs.

I'm not sure if I would have taken the time to write to the companies had I not heard from the speakers at CSL.
