Bottom line

Graduate-jobs.com fits UK employers and graduate recruitment agencies hiring for graduate schemes, entry-level roles and internships. It combines job posts, weekly job emails and a CV database that the site says holds 382,000+ published graduate CVs. There is no public price list: fees are set in each client's contract and exclude VAT. It is a self-serve advertising board, not a recruitment agency.

Stands out for: Employers can search and contact graduates directly through a CV database rather than only waiting for applications. The service terms include a refund if your vacancy has not reached graduate job seekers within 14 days.

Watch out for: Prices are not published, so you need a quote before you can compare cost. A standard post runs for 21 days unless you pay for a longer period, and renewals are charged at the normal rate.

Overview

Graduate-jobs.com is a UK job board for graduates and undergraduates, operated by graduate-jobs.com Limited, a company registered in England and Wales and based in Manchester. It says it has been running since 1999 and works with direct employers and graduate recruitment agencies across sectors such as engineering, sales and management.

Employers advertise through job posts, display adverts, banners and scheme pages. Each job post covers one vacancy, stays live for 21 days or the agreed paid period, and is emailed weekly to members whose preferences match the role. Clients are told by email before a post expires and can renew it.

The CV search service gives paying clients access to graduate CVs, subject to each member's availability settings. The homepage states 382,152 published CVs and 6,623 approved graduate recruiters. Clients must get a member's permission before passing a CV to their own client.

Fees are agreed in a contract rather than published, are exclusive of VAT and are invoiced on 30-day terms. For candidates the site is free, and graduate-jobs.com states that it is not a recruitment agency and does not act as an employment agency.
