entry-level talent

Candidates are trained, rigorously screened and vetted so that you interview only the brightest and best.

Grow your own!

When you’re growing a media business it’s hard to find and afford superb talent. All the good people already have jobs, and paying for a mid-level person can be prohibitively expensive. So what’s the alternative?

Have you considered growing your own talent with an “always-on” talent pipeline, and a recruitment partner who understands your business' goals and culture.

Good engagement to establish what we were looking for in our candidates. Delivered a curated list of strong candidates to our shortlist. We liked the platform as it kept all interactions and information in one place.

Strong candidates, easy process

We had a great experience with Digital Grads. Not only did they have a very strong bank of candidates, I feel they were genuinely routing for the candidates and made sure that communication kept flowing from us and the candidates. The best recruitment process I've experienced so far!

HARRY

Paid Media Exec at Fox & Bear

Above and beyond expectations

Digital Grads were completely different to recruitment agencies. After receiving multiple offers through different recruiters they were extremely supportive to chat through these and showed genuine care for my future and helping me make the right decision, as opposed to trying to sell me a job on their platform.

Beyond this after finding me a great job within 3 weeks the team continued to be there to offer support and answer any questions as I settled into work life. Thanks DigitalGrads!

Jack

Digital Media Assistant at Anything is Possible

The best job agency

Had been looking for a grad job ever since I got back from travelling. Places like Linked-inn and indeed had the jobs on offer however to me it was extremely hard to be seen. This website was easy and simple to show off yourself, it allowed me to showcase the best version of myself to employer's. Special thanks to Kasia for checking up on me throughout my progress and thank you for allowing me to find a job that is career worthy.

An incredible team and company

I would absolutely recommend (and have done many times). The team were amazing and they were with me every step of the way after they found me a fantastic position, even up past my trial and into salary negotiations. The position has opened doors for me after university and kick-started my career at a very difficult time for everyone. Kristina and Lucy, you're both awesome, thanks you for everything!
