Limkokwing University Implements Career Fair to Enhance Student Employment Opportunities
Limkokwing University of Creative Technology in Sierra Leone has successfully institutionalized a career fair aimed at bridging the gap between education and employment for its students. This initiative was inspired by a workshop organized by the Education Collaborative, which provided practical tools for building career-readiness strategies. The career fair, first held in October 2024, attracted nearly 700 students and over 20 companies from various sectors, including banking, telecommunications, and technology. The event featured workshops on CV writing, interview preparation, and cover letter development, facilitated by industry experts. The fair has since become a permanent fixture on the university's calendar, with the second edition in October 2025 drawing 22 companies and over 500 students. The initiative has led to systemic changes within the university, integrating previously siloed activities like internships and employer engagement into a coordinated career services structure.
