AGCAS shares recession experiences at GTI breakfast meeting

Anne-Marie Martin of the Careers Group at the University of London has spoken, on behalf of AGCAS, to an audience of graduate recruiters and careers service heads. The occasion was a GTI Breakfast News meeting. Anne-Marie summarised research carried out amongst AGCAS members about the impact of the recession on campus and she told the audience what careers services are doing to help students.

Anne-Marie also used the occasion to encourage employers to get involved with HE careers services and with AGCAS, and especially to use the AGCAS Biennial Conference in September 2009 to network with careers practitioners. 

Latest insights

This was AGCAS's first invitation to nominate a speaker for GTI's well-established series of early morning meetings, designed to offer the latest insights into the state of the graduate recruitment market.

Other speakers included: Bryan Finn of Business Economics, whose slides showing the state of the economy made really interesting if scary reading; Neil Harrison of TMP Worldwide who talked about student confidence levels and the role and promotion of internships; and Carl Gilleard of AGR who gave a snapshot of current graduate recruiter confidence.

AGCAS will provide speakers for future meetings.

The presentation slides from the meeting are available below to AGCAS members who have registered with the site and signed in. Careers services wishing to use the data supplied in the slides should acknowledge TARGETjobs Breakfast News from GTI as the source.
