Graduate Recruitment

7. Advertising for Candidates

Another way to find a graduate is to advertise.

7.1 Advertising on site at the universities is usually very cheap.

• All university careers services offer a range of services to employers, including notice boards and career vacancy bulletins.

7.2 There is one main national graduate newspaper, called Prospects Today (0161 277 5200), which is available on campus.

• Prospects Today is published weekly. It also has a good website, which gives advertisers a wide range of relevant information.

7.3 Advertising on graduate specific recruitment websites is often less expensive than traditional off-line advertising. Visit www.milkround.com, www.doctorjob.com and www.graduate-jobs.com for more information.

7.4 National newspapers carry regular 'graduate appointment' features.

• The trade magazine for your industry may carry graduate recruitment advertisements.
