Hire a placement student
In addition to our mainstream 1-year programmes, we offer students Masters degrees with a credit-bearing industry placement built into their programme. Industry placement programmes are popular among students as it allows them to apply academic learning within a work environment and enhance their employability. Industry placements also deepen a student's commercial understanding of their chosen field ahead of graduating.
Our dedicated team of Student Placement Co-ordinators work with employers to ensure all industry placements are beneficial experiences for both the employer and student. Student Placement Co-ordinators can assist throughout the recruitment process and will continue to be on-hand throughout the placement experience itself.
Hiring a Placement Student provides many tangible benefits to your business:
- A cost-effective, low-risk resourcing solution
- Opportunity to drive forward a new or existing project
- Creates a graduate recruitment pipeline
- Access to emerging talent who can bring fresh ideas into your workplace
- Increase your company's profile amongst student talent
What our employers say...
We have found that the intern we employed has been excellent; bringing a fresh set of eyes to the process and has looked at our specific business and the whole area of knowledge transfer. The intern helped us to deliver a number of new ways of working and been able to provide an overview of certain aspects of the business that we hadn't considered.
The whole process has been very straightforward and a big success, enabling Kenoteq to complete valuable market research, while working with a young and passionate intern student who we would look upon favourably in the future if a job vacancy became available. We would not hesitate to take other internship placements, based on this experience.
