Building trust and credibility
JCC Career Insights Series
The Unwritten Rules of the Workplace
What Employers Expect But Rarely Explain
Date: 15 June 2026
Time: 18:30 UK Time
Format: Online via Zoom
Designed for students, graduates and early-career professionals preparing for real workplace environments.
Why This Session Matters
Academic ability can open the door, but professional success often depends on how students communicate, respond to feedback, manage expectations and build trust in everyday working situations.
This session is designed to help students understand the informal rules of the workplace before they step into internships, work experience, placements or graduate roles.
