Public events
Recruitment events took place in February 2024 and March 2023 in Kilmarnock and Cumnock.
At these events we had over 20 services showcasing the best of what they do for young and aspiring apprentices and job seekers. They were a great success and gave attendees an opportunity to interact with and speak to different field experts, allowing them to see the variety of jobs we have to offer.
