Samantha Hearn - Intern with Artswork Ltd

"I think the Graduate Jobs South scheme is amazing, and is helping to overcome the problems when it comes to getting paid 'graduate jobs' and 'work experience' which is often very difficult, particularly in hard to reach sectors of employment, e.g. Media and Arts (believe me I know!)."

 

David Marcus - Intern with Southampton City Council

"This was the first internship that directly related to my degree discipline that I had the opportunity to apply for."

 

Tanya Roberts - Intern with Artswork Ltd

"This is a great way to gain experience whilst being paid. It allows you to spend time within the industry and get your name know through networking. It can open so many doors for you that perhaps you had not even considered."

 

Christina O'Hare - Intern with Northwood Ltd

"From being unsuccessful with finding employment, an internship seemed more accessible, and combined two of my interests - marketing and design."

 

Anthony March - Intern with Super Fun Days Out Ltd

"It has proved challenging and interesting. I have had more input and autonomy than I expected and a permanent role has been discussed for the future."

 

Rhiannon Broadbent - Intern with Open Sky Ltd

"Everyone is fun and professional. I was told exactly what was expected of me during the interview process."

 

Jonathan Boys - Intern with Southampton Solent University

"I am enjoying the internship greatly. It’s what I expected and more."

 

Martyn Drabik-Hamshare - Intern with Hampshire & Isle of White Wildlife Trust

"So far, the internship has increased my enthusiasm for not only ecology, but also for British Wildlife. Through both the training and my personal project, I have witnessed and learned more about many British animal and plant species than I would have, were I not involved."

 

Laura Jayne Fynney - Intern with Spotty Gift Boxes Ltd

"I think that the GJS service is great, it offers graduates a great chance to get into the working environment and gain some crucial skills in businesses that many not always seek to employ graduates."
