Graduate Placements
Get quality experience on your CV

We are talking to and placing a lot of graduates at the moment. All are saying the same thing – The competition for graduate jobs in the UK and USA is very intense.

Many graduates have been told despite having a 2:1, they do not have the relevant work experience.

Check out the Sydney & Melbourne Internships page to see the great graduate internships available.

The name of the game when we spoke to HR managers in the UK is that they are looking for something different, a CV to jump out to them. These days a 2:1 on it’s own just won’t do that.

We can accept your application now to start anytime this year or early 2011. If you want to start in January/ February 2011 we can have you placed and everything sorted by December this year.
