For graduates
See our leaflet on internships for general information on these schemes which offer short term employment with good work experience, something to add to your CV and the possibility of longer term employment if it's worked well.
If you live in Brighton & Hove, see Brighton and Hove Graduate Jobs which includes links to University of Brighton and University of Sussex careers services.
