Applications have opened for Advance Plus’s programme to help unemployed graduates get into work.
The ‘Graduates into Employment’ programme will start on 25 November, giving locally-qualified graduates, who have registered as unemployed, the opportunity to obtain training and valuable work experience. The closing date for applications is 15 November 2013.
Successful applicants have one-to-one mentoring, industry-specific work placements, and training in a diverse range of areas designed to help them succeed in their chosen field. Over the course of the training programme, each graduate trainee will spend up to five weeks on a work placement specifically created to showcase their skills and provide a direct route into the workplace.
Advance Plus manager Digby Ellis-Brecknell said: “The graduates programme will ensure that candidates gain work-based knowledge and experience that will increase their employability by developing new transferable skills to complement their degree. We are looking forward to working with graduates to help kick-start their careers.”
Advance Plus, one of Back to Work’s employment schemes, runs a number of industry-targeted programmes year-round and has a proven track record of getting individuals into work.
