"We thank York St John University for giving us a chance to host their young, talented, and disciplined students as part of their internships.

Eapps Global Limited
"Finding a placement in London was a daunting process as the job market for international students was very competitive. However, the placement officers guided me with preparing my CV and assisted with mock interview questions. They also provided me with plenty of motivation while looking for opportunities. Their guidance helped me with identifying suitable positions in accordance with the placement requirements and being successful in securing a position. Moreover they were also proactive responding to my employer to ensure a smooth onboarding process with my placement provider."
