We’re very pleased to announce that we’ve partnered with The Guardian, widely regarded as one of the best sources for graduate jobs and career advice.
The Student Room is the largest student website in the UK and Careers is one of the fastest growing site areas. Approximately 245,000 unique users checked out our career forums in June and in response to demand we’ve expanded our career forums by about 50% adding new forums (listed at the bottom of this post)
By aligning The Guardian’s editorial excellence and job vacancies with our own unmatched peer support we aim to create an unrivalled destination for young people looking for advice, shared experience and job opportunities.
A new job search powered by The Guardian will be appearing on the site shortly and over the next few months, together with the team at The Guardian, we’ll be updating the careers homepage giving it far more of a graduate focus, incorporating more shared experiences of interviews, assessment centers, application forms, work experience etc.
If you have ideas and suggestions for the section please leave them as comments on the blog or else post them into the career forums.
We’re very excited by the potential of this partnership. With the apprehension currently surrounding job prospects, specifically for new graduates, the timing is perfect for something new. Together with The Guardian we hope to take the fear factor out of finding work and beginning your career and as always the TSR community and membership will be at the heart of what we do.
