targetjobs’ partnerships: how we create our advice
The aim of targetjobs’ advice content is to provide objective and impartial information and guidance – it is editorially independent, except where content is labelled as an advertising feature.
As part of this objective, we commission recruiters and industry practitioners (graduate and senior employees) to provide us with their insights. We also work in partnership with other organisations that provide impartial content for students. Currently, these include:
-
The Association of Graduate Careers Advisory Services (AGCAS): AGCAS members have written or sourced our teaching content and targetjobs has edited it
-
Student Minds, a student-focused mental health charity
-
MyPlus, an organisation focused on supporting students and graduates with disabilities.
At targetjobs, there is a huge network of careers experts, content creators and learning architects all working together to give students and graduates the best chance of career success. In turn, we are part of and supported by the wider Group GTI network.
About Group GTI, its history, products and services
Group GTI is a leading player in the world of early careers recruitment, with more than three decades of experience in connecting and supporting students, employers and universities. More than 30 years ago, two friends at university were frustrated that they couldn’t find the sector-specific careers advice they were seeking. They decided to create their own in the form of a printed journal and GTI (or Graduates to Industry) was born.
Since then, GTI has far outgrown its publishing roots. We now embody the future of Career Tech, enabling students, employers and careers advisers to achieve their ambitions. We do this through:
-
targetjobs and gradireland, our careers advice and jobs platforms in the UK and Ireland
-
targetconnect, our tech platform for university careers services and student support services
-
our application tracking systems (application form tech) for employers
