TARGETjobs

From fresher to finalist, TARGETjobs is unique in its multichannel approach that provides students with the information and resources they need to find internships, placements, and graduate jobs and schemes.

We work closely with university careers offices to ensure that students are given the best possible information about their future career and postgraduate options after graduation.

Online

targetjobs.co.uk advertises over 3,000 work experience and graduate job vacancies from employers large and small every year. We ensure that the students and graduates who use our site are the best candidates by combining employment opportunities with expert careers advice and independent employer information on how to get hired.

We manage a consistent database of 900,000+ students and recent graduates, making us the most effective graduate job board for recruiters.

Within TARGETjobs are sector microsites, run by our expert sector editors, that bring together all career advice and tools related to that sector. We work in partnership with many key websites and organisations including AGCAS and STEP to ensure that users to our site are able to access material written by industry-leading professionals. We also have an exclusive agreement with the Law Society to support its publication Becoming a Solicitor.
