Frequently Asked Questions

Are internships really that important?

The simple answer here is: yes. Graduate recruitment is becoming more and more important and eating up more and more of companies' budgets. The ability to spot talent early, see it in the working environment and offer training for a number of weeks is invaluable to a big recruiter. It is more and more clear that an internship is a big firm's preferred method of recruitment and is the key to a job in virtually all the industries featured on our site.

Is it really that hard to get an internship?

The figures here speak for themselves: every year talented students face ratios of ten or twenty to one for internship places. The employment market becomes more competitive with every year, as rewards go higher and opportunities become greater. If you want to give the big chance your best shot, you need every advantage you can get.
