Hear from people to took up placements:

‘I just completed the first week of the placement and while I’m very tired from it, the placement is everything I hoped for. The finance manager is going through the ACCA training matrix with me, so I can tick off as much as possible during the 9 months.’

‘I am having a great time, gaining lots of experience and getting exposure to systems and software that I have never worked with before.’

Martin (Junior Systems Analyst/Developer Placement)

‘After participating in WPP I have found a career in a firm in which I am very happy.I would highly recommend the programme.My advice is that in this current climate the most important thing is to build your CV, ensure there are no gaps as far as possible, to build on your experience and to get your name out there.’
