Warwick Academy students look to the future at jobs fair
Contemplating a potential calling in life can be daunting when school graduation is the closer prospect.
However, The Royal Gazette was on hand yesterday with 36 other businesses to showcase the variety of opportunities in the island’s workplaces for the Warwick Academy career expo.
The school said the jobs fair returned “bigger and better than ever”, with pupils across a range of ages able to hear first-hand about employment options in Bermuda as well as posing questions to industry heads on setting their possible career goals — or learning more about what really happens within different jobs.
The Department of Corrections, the Royal Bermuda Regiment, the Bermuda Police Service, the Bermuda Hospitals Board and the Department of Marine and Ports joined businesses and charities, with careers ranging from hospitality to law, and electrical technology to paediatrics.
Options were as varied as Masterworks Museum of Bermuda Art to CariGenetics and the reinsurance industry.
Dexter Smith, the Editor of the Gazette, highlighted Bermuda’s rich opportunities for journalism to a string of prospective young interns.
In many cases, pupils at the school were able to meet alumni who described finding their way into the working world.
