Erratum - ATA Selection gives graduates travel time

After three years' study, what student wouldn't welcome a six month holiday? Unfortunately, the pressure to get a job and pay back the mountain of debt often puts paid to any time off before 'the real world' beckons. However, sun, rum and guilt-free reflection time come courtesy of ATA Selection. The UK-based recruitment specialist and graduate employer is offering students graduating in summer 07 a chance to apply now for their internal positions as recruitment consultants, to secure employment commencing in January 2008.

This new recruitment scheme is aimed at graduates looking for a job as a recruitment consultant, but who want to travel first. The successful applicants can go travelling with the security of starting a job in January that offers genuine career prospects - so they don't begin a cycle of simply accepting any casual job because money is urgently needed.

ATA Selection is recruiting for its ten branches throughout the UK - based in Newcastle, Manchester, Leeds, Derby, Leicester, Birmingham, Bristol, Enfield, Croydon and Slough.

Andrew Bailey, Group Managing Director, comments: As a company, we are keen to invest in our employees with all of our managers and directors having started at ATA Selection as consultants after graduating. As the majority of employees nationwide joined ATA Selection following university, we do understand that some students feel a real need to take time out before embarking upon a full time career and our scheme really supports that choice.

ATA Selection is also offering immediate starts to graduates who wish to start work as consultants without delay after completing their degree course.
