Playing to your strengths
“Being in touch with your strengths
and weaknesses, as well as what
motivates you, will help
you be more
successful in your job.”

Working for SMEs
A survey of 200 UK graduates
commissioned by Give A Grad
A Go found:
• 91% believed big corporations
paid more
• 79% felt they provided greater
job security
• 74% felt they offered better
career progression.
And they felt that SMEs
encouraged
• creativity in the
workplace(95%)
• provided greater job
satisfaction(82%)
• better work ethic (75%)
• better work-life balance
"Graduates are often
unaware of the fantastic
career opportunities
that exist in SMEs,
and certainly have
no idea how to take
advantage of them.”
Cary Curtis, GAGAGO

Myths of internships ...
How do we dispel 'myths' ?
1. What you overthink, worry, expect will happen?
2. What other’s think about internships? i.e.
Parents, friends, wider circle of friends
3. “Society” views of internships
What do you really want to happen ?
