surprisingly well-placed in the grand scheme of things. Few of us own property, few have dependants and most are welcome to live in and work from their parents' place. Employment-wise, we've got degrees - and if we can't find work, we're in a good position to reconsider postgrad study. I don't have a lot to complain about today. In fact, I'd .... Read Full Post

.... are on the scheme which is supplemented by an individual learning fund which you can use to boost your skills. I have spent some of my fund on an accountancy qualification but you don't necessarily need to spend it on formal classroom learning. Other graduates have spent their funds on less traditional (but still valuable) development activities like funding training and travel for the Microsoft Challenge Charity event!

Lloyds TSB has a big charity culture as well as its own charitable foundation. Earlier this year I was involved in organising an Emerging Talent charity event that raised nearly £10,000 for our previous charity of the year, Barnardo's. The green agenda is big here too - we are on a mission to reduce our carbon footprint! We also support more unorthodox charities like Opportunity International that provide micro-finance in developing countries. .... Read the full Editorial

.... a rolling training scheme of more specialised techniques, in which there is some scope for the trainee to input into the direction that their training takes. This rolling scheme means that even after a year in the job, there are still new things for me to learn, which I like as it means that my job is constantly changing and evolving, which stops it from becoming monotonous.

As I have become trained in, and competent in, a greater range of histological techniques, I have also found that the level of responsibility to which I am exposed has increased. This is reflected in the number and type of tasks which I am set on a daily basis, and the direction in which my training has gone. However, the department is set up to introduce responsibility gradually, and so whilst the level of responsibility that I have taken on over the last year has grown, it is likely to further increase as I spend longer in the job. ....

Just five years after joining the graduate training scheme, Tom Osborne is responsible for developing the brand strategies and programmes that are designed to reclaim the UK market leadership for JTI/Gallaher. Since the acquisition by Japan Tobacco International (JTI) in April 2007, he finds himself with a key role at the heart of the world’s third largest tobacco company.

“I’ve always had a strong entrepreneurial side and the big brands, size and reach of JTI/Gallaher was a big draw for me,” says Tom, who joined the development scheme in September 2003, having graduated from Bristol University with a degree in Sociology. .... Read the full Editorial

.... scheme stood out from the rest. Not only tailored to my individual needs, it also offered continuous support in my career development. I felt that I'd benefit greatly from a scheme offering experience in a number of roles. Theirs consisted of three different placements: one in Field Sales, one in a Head Office-based Sales role, and the third, either another Sales role or a role in Customer Marketing.

I began my life with Nestle Rowntree in Sheffield, as a Business Development Executive (BDE). As part of a regional team, I was responsible for managing my own territory and the accounts within it. These ranged from small Co-ops to massive Tesco Extras. Each call involved ensuring stores were compliant with Head Officeagreed activity, influencing additional orders and negotiating discretionary space for incremental displays. ....
