The NUML Job Fair 2024 in Islamabad was a significant event that brought together students, employers, and career development experts in a dynamic environment. Job fairs like this one play a crucial role in helping students bridge the gap between academic learning and professional careers. They offer a platform for students to connect with potential employers, explore various career opportunities, and gain valuable insights into the job market.
Purpose of the Job Fair
The primary purpose of the NUML Job Fair was to provide students with direct access to employers from various industries, allowing them to learn about different career paths, network with professionals, and apply for internships and jobs.

JS&D’s Contribution: Supporting Students’ Career Readiness
At the job fair, JS&D Consultants played a pivotal role in enhancing the career readiness of participating students. Our team conducted interviews, providing students with the experience of real-world interview scenarios. This not only helped them practice their interview skills but also gave them valuable feedback on how to improve their performance.
We also took the time to examine students’ resumes, offering personalized advice on how to make them more effective and aligned with industry expectations. This included suggestions on structure, content, and the use of keywords to ensure their resumes would stand out in a competitive job market.
In addition to resume reviews and interviews, JS&D conducted a thorough assessment of the training needs of the students. We identified key skills deficiencies and provided guidance on addressing these gaps. This analysis was essential in helping students understand where they needed to focus their efforts to be more competitive candidates in their chosen fields.
