If you have recently been offered a placement – CONGRATULATIONS! You must inform the Placements Team of this as soon as possible, particularly as at this point in the year it is likely you will be starting your placement within the next few weeks.   Your placement needs to be signed off by the Placements Team, and paperwork needs to be in place, so ensure you let us know your good news as soon as possible!

The placements team are here all through the summer! Call 0161 247 3711, email businessplacements@mmu.ac.uk or go to the Business Placements desk in the Employability Hub to arrange an appointment – if you’re not in Manchester we offer support via email and the telephone too!

Remember that you can also apply for roles outside of your degree area, just check the job application requirements. Above is just a selection of the placements currently advertised so ensure you check on a regular basis for new/other opportunities. 

 
As always, remember the key tips for applying:

·        Make your application targeted to the company and role that you are applying for

·        Demonstrate your passion for the placement by doing your research and explaining to the employer why you want to work for them

·        Ensure that you match your skills to the skills sought by the employer, and explain when/how you have demonstrated those skills

 

If you have any questions at all don’t hesitate to let me know!

 

Kind regards

 

Shauna
