Regr/cession
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

I'll let you know next time). So - a lucky escape with Reed, or am I punching below my weight? And what do you think of .... Read Full Post

again. I've found a work experience scheme for print journalism, but it's in Dublin. Travelling and living abroad relies on huge reserves of excitement and a thirst for adventure. But mine was quenched in Paris last autumn. What I really want is to get some good work experience in the UK. But no-one wants me!! Anyone else finding it hard .... Read Full Post

.... Ambassadors Scheme (SEAS) and I absolutely love it!We go out to schools in the local community and get students involved with and excited about science.

Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
I do see myself still working at Dstl in five years. Hopefully I will have completed a research masters - something I'm currently looking into - and could possibly be looking at a secondment to another part of MOD.

Why Dstl?
I came to work at Dstl after my 'A' levels, for a placement year organised by the 'Year in Industry' scheme. Dstl then sponsored me throughout my degree and I came back during the summer holidays and then after I graduated. .... Read the full Editorial

.... 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

Each year the Group takes on over 50 graduates as trainee managers, who fall into three categories; year-out students currently studying a construction-related degree, postgraduate trainees with a construction-related degree or graduates with no prior construction experience who take a special conversion diploma.

Graduates focus on one of the following disciplines; quantity surveying, site management, planning, estimating and preconstruction.

What are we looking for?
Whilst we prefer graduate trainees with a minimum of a 2:1 degree who have had either a year's industrial placement or some relevant experience, we will also consider under graduates. .... Read the full Editorial

.... This scheme gave me the perfect mix.

My first experience was a two-week induction to introduce me to the company and to meet most of the senior directors, including lunch with the Chairman and dinner with the Chief Executive. Spending time with the other graduates in my group helped to create a strong relationship with people who would be going through the same challenges for the next 12 months.

The first few months gave me a chance to get stuck into all aspects of the business, from laying bricks to designing sales centres. I worked with some great people, who ensured that my learning curve was incredibly steep. Although the focus was placed on my development, it was also really refreshing to have senior managers and directors actually sitting back and taking notice of my ideas and suggestions. ....

.... TUI Travel trainee scheme appealed because of the opportunities and diversity of the placements spread out over an 18 months contract. With more than 47,000 employees across the world and over 200 brands, including two out of the three largest Travel companies in the UK (Thomson and First Choice) it was clear that it was more a case of deciding what route I personally wanted to explore rather then being told in which areas of the business I should gain work experience. With the Group split into 5 main sectors, Mainstream, Activity, Specialist and Emerging Markets, Joint Venture and Online Destinations Services, there was certainly no lack of choice, and I was excited about the opportunities available to me not only in the UK but also abroad, for example at TUI Espana in Spain or TUI Deutschland in Germany or further opportunities in Russia and China. ....

I graduated from York University with a BSc (hons) in Biology in 2006, and in April 2007, I joined ....
.... 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. ....
