TARGETjobs has launched the most advanced online careers matching tool in the UK today. TARGETjobs Careers Report is produced by GTI Media, publishers of TARGETjobs graduate careers publications and targetjobs.co.uk, in partnership with the leading psychometric testing outfit cut-e.
The aim of TARGETjobs Careers Report is to help undergraduates to identify their key skills, motivations and values and then to produce a list of graduate careers that match their profile. Developed with the help of leading guidance specialists, TARGETjobs Careers Report is particularly helpful to the many thousands of undergraduates who don’t know what they want to do or even what is available to them, career wise. It’s also a powerful tool for students to understand more about their skills and aptitudes and therefore become better and more focused job applicants.
The service is entirely free for students to use and, once they have completed the various stages online, they can display or print out a detailed 16 page report of their results. They can even log back in and take the TARGETjobs Careers Report again to develop their profile or to get valuable practice in the aptitude tests that graduate recruiters use for selection.
Chris Phillips, Publishing Director for targetjobs.co.uk says, “It is estimated that around 50 per cent of undergraduates don’t know what they want to do after graduation, so it’s been exciting to develop this cutting-edge matching tool with Cut-e, which will give students a better understanding of graduate jobs. It’s also great to think that the other 50 per cent will benefit too; by understanding their own skills and abilities, they will make much better job applications.”
The TARGETjobs Careers Report is now available to use at http://targetjobs.co.uk/careers-report. In order to use this service, users will need to log in or register at http://targetjobs.co.uk/registration and will then have access to a database of over 350 graduate job descriptions.
The TARGETjobs Careers Report provides even the most vocationally unaware student with a list of well-matched jobs and a better understanding of what they have to offer potential graduate recruiters! That’s good news for them and even better news for recruiters who want motivated and well-prepared candidates.
