Connect to talent

Teesside University offers a range of opportunities to connect to our talent pool of students and graduates who have skills and knowledge tailored to your industry and fresh perspectives and ideas that could provide you with a competitive edge.

Flexible internships and placements

We provide a low-risk route to access and assess our highly skilled graduates and students who could be the perfect fit for your business needs, including:

• Internships: typically lasting between two to six months and an excellent choice for shorter-term projects or busy periods.
• Placements: benefit from sector-leading skills and expertise over a twelve months period. It's also a route to securing top talent before students complete their studies.

Access to events and opportunities

Our recruitment events, in-person and virtual, connect you with motivated individuals actively exploring graduate and undergraduate opportunities. They're an excellent platform for networking with prospective employees and promoting your organisation to a talent pool. We can tailor our events to align with your recruitment processes. We can also promote your vacancies through targeted newsletters and our online jobs portal, at no cost.
