GRB Recruitment Surgery Anyone?

Happy Friday everyone

The momentum continues at GRB this week with our team representing many graduates as they apply for jobs we have with our clients. Normally this time of year is the low season because as you'd expect most activity takes place in the Summer/Autumn yet we seem to be bucking the trend and unusually busy because I think companies are in "rebound mode" as they play catch up with any shortfall they have from their graduate programmes and schemes from 2009.

Equally we have had more than usual enquiries from recruiters seeking graduates to join them as interns so keep an eye out for these jobs to be advertised shortly on our site. Barclay's is already on there.

Other news to mention is that we have now launched a monthly poll for graduate recruiters to participate in so these results will make useful reading for them but also for graduates. The first poll asks what time period they expect to hire a graduate and early indications are positive.

Finally, I am thinking of running a "Recruitment Surgery" for my Facebook friends and wondered what day and time would suit most people. I plan to allocate one hour to answer questions from job-seeking graduates so let me know and if enough people request it - I'll do it!

Best regards

Dan
