An I2I Marketing product story

Edited by the Marketingweek Marketplace editorial team Sep 22, 2009

I2I Marketing has been hired to co-ordinate a face-to-face careers roadshow for Nextstep West Midlands.

The agency was appointed by Coventry Solihull and Warwick Partnership (CSWP), which manages Nextstep in the West Midlands.

The roadshow, which kicks off in September with a two-week appearance at the Guildhall shopping centre in Stafford, will offer free face-to-face learning and careers support to any local job-seeker aged 20 or over.

In addition, 18-19-year-olds referred by their local Jobcentre Plus can also use the Nextstep service.

Visitors to the branded stand will be able to chat to I2I brand ambassadors and experienced Nextstep careers advisers on topics such as finding or changing jobs, improving CV and interview skills, help with redundancy, getting back to work and general career planning.

An educational DVD will run on a loop.

In coming months, the roadshow will visit a series of libraries, shopping centres and recruitment fairs across the West Midlands.

The events will play a key role in Nextstep West Midlands' plan to provide practical careers advice to a further 40,000 people in the next 10 months.
