On 14 October, Unicaja took part in the fourth edition of the Santander Job Fair, an initiative organised by the University of Cantabria (UC) and Santander City Council, which each year connects the business community with university talent to promote their training and professional development.
The event, held at the Santander Exhibition and Conference Centre, facilitated direct contact between more than 120 companies and institutions and university students and recent graduates, enabling them to learn about training programmes, work placement opportunities and job vacancies. The aim is to enhance young people’s employability and ease their transition into the labour market by building bridges between the academic and business worlds.
Commitment to the training and development of talent
Unicaja’s Recruitment and Talent Acquisition team was present at this fair with its own stand, which served as a meeting and information point. Here, as well as learning about the financial institution, interested students were able to find out about its various training and professional development programmes and initiatives.
This event also provided a unique opportunity to gain first-hand insight into the concerns and expectations of the next generation of professionals and to strengthen the organisation’s ties with the university community, in line with its commitment to attracting, developing and nurturing young talent.
Unicaja’s participation in this fair is part of its commitment to education, training and the employability of young people, helping to bridge the gap between university talent and the business world. This commitment is in line with the objectives of its 2025–2027 Strategic Plan, which identifies people and talent as key enablers and includes initiatives focused on education, training, the recruitment of new profiles and professional development.
