Following on from our first Graduate Recruitment Briefing back in February, we are delighted to announce our next briefing which will take place in the spectacular Vice Chancellor's Lodge in Sefton Park.

The early talent recruitment landscape is changing fast. Where traditionally a graduate may have been the only option for your business there are now a variety of different ways to go. So how do you make the decision between an apprentice, a placement student or a graduate? What can each bring to your business and what will it cost? How will the Apprenticeship Levy and the recent HE White Paper affect your recruitment?

We are delighted to welcome Rebecca Fielding and Charlie Reeve from GradConsult – true recruitment experts - to lead our briefing. As usual there will be plenty of opportunity to network with fellow recruiters and the University’s Employer Engagement Team, all in the beautiful surroundings of the Vice Chancellor’s Lodge in Sefton Park.
