IBM
About us:
IBM and innovation have always been great partners. Over the last 100 years, IBM has worked to make technology faster, more effective and more accessible. Today, we’re focused on how we can make the planet a better place to work and live, by creating systems that improve people’s lives. Systems that can make energy grids more effective, improve water management, make healthcare more affordable and transform the global supply chain.
IBM employ talented, smart people in almost every area, in just about every country, so no matter where your talents and aspirations lie, it’s not hard to find like-minded people who share your interests. At IBM graduates will gain knowledge and experience like nowhere else.
You’ll also be challenged and supported to achieve everything you want in your career. And you’ll find everything you need to build the kind of career you want. But it’s up to you how it goes. You’ll be the one in charge, putting forward your ideas, taking on responsibilities and making choices about how you get the job done.
To make sure graduates get exactly the help and skills they need, IBM provide targeted training that includes a range of opportunities – from a formal mentoring programme and tailored skills and career development to peer support and professional development through monthly forums and the IBM volunteering programme.
So it’s no wonder we’ve been voted ‘Graduate Employer of Choice for IT’ at The Times Graduate Recruitment Awards time and time again. Quite an achievement – but nothing compared to the great things our people go on to accomplish.

This is the fourth year IBM have attended IT's not just for the boys! event and the reason we keep coming back is the event delivers fantastic candidates who have already been pre-selected for us. The students are always extremely engaged, technology focused and eager to find out more about our organisation. Each year we have received a great number of applications and offers from IT's not just for the boys! attendees

I learned not all IT careers focus on programming, there are so many options out there which require the skills I have!
Student
Extremely helpful and interesting. Has opened my eyes to more opportunities within the sector. The sky is the limit!
Student
A fantastic opportunity to meet some truly inspirational women in the technology sector!
Student
This event showed me the sector is much more diverse than I originally thought, it is possible to reach the top regardless of gender!
Student
Thank you to all the TARGETjobs Events team as the whole event is really excellent. I have been to so many events in the tech space and for young women there really isn't anything like it.

IT's not just for the boys was once again my favourite event this academic year. It is amazing to be around so many inspiring females and young upcoming techies that are so passionate about the industry. The layout of the event is perfect, the skills session and team challenge really allowed me to see how they would work in a team and I got to see them in an environment that I wouldn't at any other event. The calibre of candidates is also very impressive. Getting all their details, CV's and whether they are interested is fantastic for me to follow up!

Isban attended INJFTB for the first time last year and were hugely impressed! We are not a well-known brand in our own right, this event gave us the opportunity to tell our story to an enthused female technical audience. ITNJFTB was a very successful source of interns & graduates, and we will be returning in 2018!
Isban
An excellent day focusing on you and your strengths rather than you as a female student. I often forgot it was a female only event and left feeling empowered!

We loved hosting IT's not just for the boys! at Bloomberg again this year. It is a fantastic opportunity to meet some of the top prospective engineers around the UK, and we truly benefit from having the opportunity to engage in such interactive sessions. The events are extremely well organised, and the students are very well prepared to network with sponsors and make the most of their experience. We look forward to continued partnership with TARGETjobs Events on their fantastic work in bringing more focus to women in technology!
