OS Networking Drinks
5 September 2019
OS Careers’ Networking Event – Thursday 5 September.
On Thursday 5 September, we were delighted to hold our Careers Networking Drinks at The Phene in Chelsea. We were delighted to welcome over fifty Old Stoics, made up of OS mentors and recent leavers.
The evening began with drinks, followed by an array of delicious canapés. Once everyone arrived, our guests became reacquainted with old friends as well as making new ones. The recent leavers were enthusiastic and proactive in seeking out mentors in their chosen fields, as well as chatting with professionals who were able to offer advice and guidance for those undecided on their employment path. We were regaled with memories and stories of days gone by as well as healthy exchanges of business and employment information.
During the course of the evening, the OS Chairman, Hannah Durden (Nugent 01), thanked everyone for attending and explained the advantages to coming along to evenings such as these, as well as keeping in regular contact with the Old Stoic Society, whom have a vast register of OS business contacts on hand, to offer guidance, advice, support and inspire, where required.
The evening allowed our recent leavers the opportunity to build their own professional network as well as take informal advice from our more established members. As our group of Mentors and Old Stoics grow, it is more important that this evening remains a regular fixture on our events calendar.
From beginning to end, the evening was a great success.
