Graduate recruitment specialist Hobsons has been appointed managing agent of a Government-financed project, which will find UK internships for 20 graduates from top Hong Kong universities. Hobsons was selected for the project following the success of its UK-China Graduate Work Experience Programme, which it also manages on behalf of the UK Government.

The first group of students will arrive in Spring 2008 and employers wishing to be involved in the programme should register their interest now. Apart from internsí salaries, all costs are met. Emma Waltham, Director of Creative Services at Hobsons, believes that this is an ideal opportunity for recruiters to access skilled, motivated and talented graduates from some of the best universities in the region.

ëMany UK companies are keen to benefit from the skills that Hong Kongís students have to offer,í she says. ëHong Kong is one of the worldís business capitals, and the students taking part in the project have a unique insight into the regionís business culture. We are looking forward to welcoming the students to the UK next year.í
