About this Event
Event Photos

Are you a Architecture BA, MArch, Interior Architecture or Architectural Technologist student graduating this year.


Do you have questions about applying for jobs and placements in architecture?


Are you unsure of how to approach applying for jobs?


Want tips on job applications and CVs?


Got questions about the Part Three course?


Hopefully the Employment Forum can help you. Join us for a discussion forum about experiences with employment in architecture.

This forum is looking to discuss the current employment situation across the wider spectrum of students, architects, and practice directors. We are hoping to discuss the challenges that the panellists are experiencing in practice, and how they have worked through them. The idea is that wherever you sit along the employment spectrum that you know that you are not alone. Many of the challenges we have all faced recently are shared by others.

Hopefully you will find this discussion supportive, and useful.

We have a panel of architecture professionals from part 1 & |l architectural assistants to practice directors that we hope can assist you on your journey. Come along to the event and ask your questions and hopefully we can provide some constructive feedback.

This event is free to all students from both Liverpool schools of architecture.


Panel:

Anika Kohli - Part One Architectural Assistant, MGMA Architects

Kitty Allum - Part I Graduate, RIBA

Lucy Fell - Architect, Falconer Chester Hall

Matthew Quinton - Associate Director, 10 Architect

Mathew Giles - Director, MGMA Architects
