The experience is invaluable for pupils as many will be required to attend an interview for employment, further education or training.

The Year 12 pupils took great pride in their appearance and conducted themselves professionally throughout the day.

Mrs T Mullan, Head of Careers at Dunluce, who organised the event, is grateful to all the volunteer advisors and to Barbara Hume without whom this day would not have been possible.
