Graduate Recruitment

4. Finding Your Graduate

There are more than 160 universities and higher education institutions in the UK. Focus your efforts, to avoid wasting time and money.

4.1 Target the university or institution of choice.

  • If you want specialist degrees, go to the UCAS website and research the degree courses to identify a suitable university or institution.
  • Do not base your choice on unresearched beliefs, such as your own experience. They may be out of date.
  • Make yourself known as soon as possible to the careers service at your chosen universities or institutions. Get your name entered onto their databases, so that your details are circulated to potential recruits.

4.2 Do not ignore your local universities. Get to know the careers advisers and even individual tutors if you can.

  • You may find students who, although they originate from further afield, have settled in the area and would like to stay there.
