黑料不打烊

Brand Awareness are one of our most popular types of event at 黑料不打烊. They are a great opportunity to meet with high numbers of students on an individual basis, in an informal setting.

These activities are particularly useful for companies wishing to raise their profile as a recruiter amongst a wider student body.

Concepts that have been popular by attracting high volumes of students, and resulted in successful outcomes for employers are:

• Food carts, such as popcorn machines or sweets.
• Interactive games, such as a ‘spin the wheel’ where students could win a gift voucher or merchandise from your organisation.

Students are drawn to stands where there are eye catching displays and interesting giveaways/freebies. Having approachable and pro-active representatives, will also help to make your event a success.

This is only a guide however, and the format is entirely your choice. We are happy to discuss any ideas and suggestions you might have.

The University takes its responsibility for the environment seriously and understands the need to respond to the challenges we face globally around issues such as climate change, human wellbeing, food, water and energy security.

Please help us to respond to these challenges by making greener choices. This can be achieved by:

• Freebies - As you plan what to bring onto campus, we encourage you to choose items that are reusable, purposeful, and high quality. Based on a recent student focus group, practical, sought-after items are more likely to spark conversations and leave a lasting impression. We recommend avoiding single-use plastics, textiles, and items that are unlikely to be kept or used, such as tote bags, to reduce carbon emissions. Instead, consider practical, sought-after items like reusable water bottles, clothing (such as socks), or other quality branded goods that students will genuinely value and hold onto long after the fair.
• If you plan to bring free edible items, please ensure these are pre-packaged and allergens are clearly labelled on the packaging.
• Bring a reusable travel cup and a water bottle with you. We have water fountains and refreshments available at the Fair for you to refill.
• Reduce waste by using reusable resources that can be used at other events.
• Using public transport when visiting the University. A train station is situated 10 minutes away from the university, and buses run regularly onto campus.
