To mark International Women’s Day, students attended an inspiring careers talk at the Ludgate Hub, where a panel of accomplished women shared their personal career journeys and experiences across a range of industries.

The speakers provided valuable insight into what it truly takes to build a successful and fulfilling career. Key themes included resilience, adaptability, teamwork and hard work, with honest reflections on overcoming setbacks and embracing opportunities for growth. One quote that particularly resonated with students was:

“Hard‑working people are luckier.”

The session encouraged students to reflect on their own strengths and ambitions, while highlighting the importance of perseverance, collaboration and continuous learning. It was an engaging and motivating event that showcased strong female role models and left students with practical advice they can carry forward into their future careers.
