Whitehouse Communications delivered a public affairs and communications insights session with 180 Degrees Consulting King’s College London students.
Two members of the Whitehouse’s team, Laura Contin and Saagar Dattani, yesterday (28th April) provided an introduction to political consulting in the United Kingdom and the European Union and what a day at Whitehouse Communications involves. They shared some advice on what to look out for when applying for roles, key points to consider, and what consultancies look for in prospective applicants.
Thank you to all students who joined and contributed to the discussion. For those interested in applying for a role at Whitehouse Communications, please check out our careers page for more information!
