TARGETjobs news roundup


Hello and welcome to the TARGETjobs news roundup.Are you sitting comfortably? Then let’s begin.


We’ll kick things off by looking at the sectors. This week there has been a real mix, we’ve got news about everything from law to engineering. However, the sector that is leading the way is the built environment where there have been interesting developments in both the construction and property sectors



  • We’ve got some top tips for property job hunters. There may not be many positions available at the moment, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t any out there. If you’re currently looking, we have some interesting tips for you.
There is plenty going on in the other sectors too. Law, insurance, engineering and consulting job hunters all have something to talk about this week:
It has also been an interesting week for developments in the wider world of graduate jobs.

  • We also ran the TARGETjobs Breakfast News event yesterday, our regular networking event with employers. This time we discussed whether apprenticeships were better than degrees. Special guest was Phillip Taylor, star of BBC’s ‘The Apprentice’. Join the debate on our Facebook page.
