Milkround teams up with Accommodation for Students

The UK’s most widely-used graduate recruitment website has teamed up with the UK’s leading accommodation website to help students and graduates find work and a place to live.
 
Milkround, the site used by the most finalists in The UK Graduate Careers Survey 2011, has entered into a partnership with Accommodation for Students. Every user who signs up with Accommodation for Students will now be offered the chance to register with Milkround to aid their job hunt.
 
Accommodation for Students has been the leading student website for 10 years and even turned down an offer from the Dragon’s Den entrepreneurs to stay independent. Through www.accommodationforstudents.com and www.lettings.net, hundreds of thousands of students and graduates find accommodation every year. 
 
Milkround has now been the most-used graduate recruitment website in The UK Graduate Careers Survey in seven out of the last eleven years. Milkround has an exclusive database of more than 700,000 students and graduates offering them a personalised email service to help pick out the internships, placements, graduate jobs and schemes.
 
Accommodation for Students Director and Co-Founder Simon Thompson said: “We are delighted to be working with Milkround and provide the 300,000 students that register with us each year with an early opportunity to get ahead in their career, as we know how competitive the graduate employment market is right now and we are keen to support our students in every way we can.”
 
Milkround General Manager Jenni Joplin said: “We know how tough it is to find decent student and graduate accommodation at a fair price with trusted landlords so we are pleased to recommend Accommodation for Students as the place to find somewhere to live whether you are studying or just starting to look for work. Accommodation for Students users will find Milkround just as easy to use and perfect to find their way around the jobs market of internships, placements, graduate jobs and schemes in all the major industries on our site.”
