ERIC began as a careers festival for Gen Z that swapped static stalls and free pens with workshops and live entertainment. And they have recently launched their very own app. The app is free for young creatives to download, and is a space for them to explore, up-skill and land their first job in the creative industries. They are therefore the go to platform for any creative company trying to outreach and attract the next generation of diverse talent!
Claire Fennelow, EVCOM’s Exec Director days, “ERIC have been instrumental in helping us reach young Black filmmakers and filmmakers of colour for The FOCUS Award. Without them we wouldn’t have connected with so many amazing filmmakers and had the chance to bring them into our industry. They are doing things differently, which is exactly what we need if we want change to happen.”
ERIC normally charge for an employer profile but they are kindly offering all EVCOM members a complimentary profile if they post any jobs or opportunities on ERIC. So if you want to reach young diverse creatives, get involved with ERIC today. Find out more below or via the website here.
