One Step Ahead: The Edinburgh Chamber of Commerce's recession support initiative



Looking to recruit students or graduates? Advertise for free!

Published 5 June 2009

Higher Education Careers Services in Scotland have developed a free 'one-stop-shop' Shared Vacancies Service for all employers to help them bring vacancies to the attention of students and recent graduates.

Whether your vacancy has an immediate start date or you are looking for someone to start at a future date; is in the UK or overseas, it can be advertised on the service for free. The Shared Vacancies Service can help you with vacancies that are suitable for new or recent graduates and also for internships or summer/other placements.

Nick Thow, Director of the Careers Service at Heriot-Watt says, "We have been delighted at how, across Scotland, we have worked together to provide this valuable service to employers. Sharing our expertise is one of the strengths of our collaboration as Careers Services in Higher Education in Scotland."

The Service will enable you to promote your vacancies to tens of thousands of students across Scotland faster and more efficiently.
