Dear All,
Happy New Year! I do hope you had a nice break over Christmas and are having a great start to the year. We have many new and exciting initiatives planned for this year, so please do keep a regular look out on our website.
In our first Finance E-News Bulletin of the year, as many graduate schemes close until early autumn, we move our focus to work experience, internships and industrial placements.
In this month’s bulletin, we have included articles to help those students interested in gaining valuable and practical work experience, strengthening their applications for those always competitive City and Finance roles. In line with this, we are currently interested in hearing from students that have recently completed an internship; if any of your students have internship experiences they would like to share with others, we would love to publish their testimonials online.
Please feel free to share this newsletter with your students and colleagues, through our newsletter web page or by copying and pasting the content into your own communications.
Kind regards,
Laura McFarlane,
Editor, Inside Careers

User Survey
We will be conducting a user survey as of next Monday 14th January; this will be open for two weeks and one lucky entrant will be able to win a £50 Amazon voucher. If you could inform your students about this opportunity, that would be brilliant.
Find out more and forward our survey here.

Internship Profiles
We are keen to publish profiles of those who have recently undertaken internships in order to help students seeking, planning or considering an internship with an insight into what it may be like and therefore help them to make a focused, high quality application.
If you could inform your students about this initiative in any way, it would be much appreciated.
Here’s a look at our very first internship profile.
