Work placements are now standard in many organisations and these can provide many benefits, both to students and also for businesses.

It can be very difficult for students to gain employment, without some practical experience in the working environment and this is one of the main benefits of a work placement. Students can gain valuable insight into the industry they wish to work in and learn more from colleagues. It can also greatly improve employment prospects as most businesses look to recruit people with experience, not just qualifications.

It is also the opportunity to meet new people and build confidence and of course, earn some money!

Work placements usually take place during study holidays and this employment based educationcan eventually lead to a firm offer, when studies are completed.

The benefit for companies is that they get a chance to find out what the student can offer to the business, without any long term commitment.

At Talent Xperts, we have built strong relationships with businesses, both locally and internationally and together, we have designed courses which provide the most benefits to students, in terms of the skills which are applicable to the specific industry.

Many organisations will conduct interviews with our students and we offer support to both businesses and to students on how to prepare for interview.

We are strong advocates of work placements and the wealth of benefits they can offer. We do our upmost to ensure students gain experience in the right industry to suit their future career goals.
