Placement 23-31 October 2009
Posted: Thu, October 22, 2009
 

Mid-term Break: You may wish to download some copies of the "BBS Introductory Leaflet" on the website explaining the work placement program.  These can be distributed, along with your CV, to companies in your local area during the break.  A copy of this leaflet is also on the board in the work placement office at D18.

Interviews this week include Hilti (Thursday) and Statestreet (Friday)

Update on previous opportunities:  Unfortunately E&Y Waterford are unable to get approval to offer a placement this year even though they were highly impressed with the students who interviewed.   Swiss Financial have also informed us that they are  unable to take a placement in 2010.

New Opportunities

We are delighted that VHI have confirmed that they wish to take work placement students from any stream into their customer service centre in Kilkenny.    

Let us know asap at bbsplacement@wit.ie if you want your CV to be sent to VHI as they wish to interview very shortly.

Check e-mails, website and mobile phones during the Mid-Term Break
Again we remind you to check your e-mail at least twice daily and check the website regularly in case e-mails are not getting through to you.  We are sending e-mails to your WIT e-mail address only.   Check your text messages regularly and respond immediately.   You may miss out on a possible interview should you fail to do so.
