Will Gradcracker come and talk to students at my university?
Our university liaison team is now field based and visits universities up and down the country. If you would like Angela to come to your university to talk to your students or just to introduce Gradcracker to you and see how we can work together just give her a call on 07772 697055.
Can Gradcracker help our students find work placements?
Yes we can. Students can complete a very simple form, enabling their availability for work placements to be listed by university and degree course. Employers can search by these criteria and are then directed to the appropriate Placement Advisor within the university. The more students you can encourage to register the more popular your university will become with employers. This service is free of charge to universities, students and employers.
Can you help with employer presentations, skills sessions etc?
Yes of course! We have held highly successful seminars, supported by our employers, at a number of universities around the UK. The students get to not just listen to employers but to ask questions too. Contact Angela to find out more and/or read about some recent events.
