New Service for Recruiters in Wales & South West England!

We actively encourage students to gain work experience. We actively encourage employers to offer work experience.

However, students and graduates often don't know how to find quality roles and recruiters often don't have the budget to advertise.

We offer the solution! Free recruitment advertising for paid internships, placements & projects of up to 12 weeks duration in Wales and south west England*

Take advantage of this great new free service from Gradsouthwest & GradWales now!

>>> Post your internship, placement or project in the south west

>>> Post your internship, placement or project in Wales

*This service is limited to two free recruitment adverts per company / organisation per annum. The role must be paid at least minimum wage and must be a position which could be reasonably assumed to be at undergraduate or graduate level.

GradWales Launched!

In direct response to demand from students and employers at careers fairs at the Universities of Cardiff, Cardiff Met and South Wales, we have launched our 'sister' site GradWales.com.

The service will promote Wales as a great place for graduates to develop their careers. It will give recruiters a central place to advertise vacancies to students and graduates who love Wales and want to work there. We've been delighted by the positive response to the launch.

If you have graduate job roles to advertise in Wales please get in touch with Nick by emailing recruit@gradwales.comor calling 029 2000 2301. Diolch!

Speed Networking

We will be at the ‘Meet the Employers’ speed networking event to be held on Tuesday 21 May at the University of Gloucestershire.

If you have a vacancy you'd like us to promote to students at this event please do get in touch.
