Terms & conditions of advertising, attending and hosting events with Cambridge Careers Service
Cambridge Careers Service will advertise careers-related events to students, including networking events, employer presentations and skills sessions, on Handshake, free of charge. All events and skills sessions specific to Cambridge should be requested via the request form on our website, and then posted via Handshake. All events are subject to screening by a member of the Careers Service team.
Cambridge Careers Service reserves the right to not advertise events which are not considered to be in the best interests of our students. These include but are not limited to events which:
- Are not of graduate calibre
- Do not comply with the University’s Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Policy
- Do not provide a clear and detailed description of what they entail
- Promote or endorse illegal activity
- Require students to pay an upfront fee, deposit or advertise paid services
- Require excessive amounts of personal data to be distributed by data subjects
- Primarily offer the same services as those offered by the Cambridge Careers Service or are scheduled at a time that is inappropriate for students
- Are not relevant to programmes and courses offered by the University of Cambridge
- Take students outside of Cambridge during term-time (See term dates here)
- Take place between 9am and noon in term-time as this may clash with lectures
- Takes place during the examination period
- Create a significant clash between events in the same industry/sector. We may be in contact to rearrange
- Include employers who are not listed on Handshake with the University of Cambridge
Our students are heavily targeted. To ensure balance, organisations may post no more than 5 events per employer per term, including online events (exceptions may be granted to events relating to EDI, at the Careers Service’s discretion).
