How placements work
A placement is usually a year in a firm between your second and final years, taken as part of a sandwich degree. It is paid, and at many firms it leads to a graduate offer.
Placements open on a similar timetable to summer internships, mostly in the autumn for a start the following summer, and also close when they are full. Check that your university allows a placement year before you apply.
Questions
Who can apply for a placement?
Students whose degree includes, or allows, a year in industry. Your university's placement office can confirm whether yours does.
When do placements open?
Mostly between September and December for a start the following summer, though some open later in the year.
Is a placement better than an internship?
It is longer and you do more real work, but it adds a year to your degree. Many firms offer both; the right one depends on your course and plans.
Where this list comes from
Each firm's own careers site, read politely and under our own name every one to fifteen minutes, depending on the site. We show the title, the firm, the place and the dates, and link to the firm for everything else. Not every firm can be read like this, so check the firms you care most about yourself as well. More on how this works.
Start whenever
An hour to get on with it, fifteen free minutes if you would rather talk first, or a message if you would rather write.
