Student and Graduate case studies

I received an alert from the Graduate Jobs Southampton project on a weekly basis, which was really helpful as it informed me of the jobs that were available for graduates. The jobs that were posted were good quality and eclectic. I received an email regarding a Press and PR Account Executive position at a firm in Southampton by the name of Carswell Gould. The job was exactly what I was looking for, so after going on the firm’s website I applied for the job via email and had an interview by the end of the week. A second interview quickly followed, and I was offered the job a week later. If it wasn’t for the Graduate Jobs Southampton email alert I would have probably not have heard of the position available at Carswell Gould so I am extremely grateful for the service.

It’s a very easy website to use, after you log in, its easy to find jobs that are relevant to you. I also really liked that you apply for the jobs from the website, rather than going on to a separate company website.

I was intrigued to work with a small company, because I wanted the experience where you could feel that you really knew what was going on in the whole company. I wanted to work somewhere I could contribute to the running and to how the company progresses and to really feel like you make a difference.
