Why Choose Placement UK?

Bespoke Service

1. We recruit for your placement specifically. We do not draw from a general database of possible candidates. Or trawl online third party databases. We promote your specific opportunity to our own vast audience, and only talk to those who apply directly for it.
2. Other placement services may simply send you a list of CV's hoping one might take your fancy. The applicants will probably not even be aware of your vacancy and will lack motivation and commitment as a result. Indeed they may not be interested or available anymore. This is a blunderbuss approach that wastes your time.

Pan European Coverage

1. Many placement services are limited or restricted to candidates from narrowly defined areas - Eastern Europe for example, or from just one country in particular, or even from just a single university.
2. With direct contacts in over 1800 universities and business schools from every country of the EU and EEA, we have an unsurpassed depth and breadth of coverage.

Client Focussed

1. You are the fee-paying client. We charge you for our service, not the student. Whilst this might not sound like a benefit, let us explain why it is...
2. All our services are focussed on pleasing YOU. We do not get paid unless we do so. Our future revenue stream depends on keeping you as a client.
3. We search, screen, interview and shortlist to put only the best candidates in front of you. You know that these people are motivated, committed and meet your criteria.
4. We guarantee satisfaction.

Free to Students

1. Our services are free to candidates, ensuring massive usage, and therefore massive choice of candidates for you. Many other placement agencies charge the student. Typical agency fees can be around €600 (over £500) for a placement, and registration fees are often charged even if the placement company fail to place them.
2. Such companies are not too concerned if things do not work out for you. It is the students that pay them after all, and giving a free service to companies, new clients may be not so hard to find.
3. Is it really fair and ethical to charge cash-strapped students? We don't think so
