The UK-India Graduate Programme
Date Posted: 02 October 2009
Have you considered employing an Indian Graduate?
GTI Recruiting Solutions is pleased to announce we have been appointed as themanaging agents for an exciting new initiative between India and the UK - which will enable the best English speaking Indian graduates and undergraduates to take internships in UK businesses.
This unique programme organised by the UK-India Education and Research Initiative (UKIERI) has been welcomed by the UK and Indian governments. Their goal is to substantially improve business and education relations between the two countries, as well as nurturing the development of Professional and Technical skills across a variety of sectors. This will ensure that, in the longer term, we become each others partner of choice.
GTI Recruiting Solutions is now talking to UK businesses to secure the placements. Companies taking part will have access to the cream of the crop of India's brightest graduates from leading universities across the country. We can source Interns from any degree discipline with Indian talent being able to take paid internships for a minimum of 12 weeks up to 50 weeks.
Your business should support this programme because you will be:
Secure in the knowledge that candidates will be professionally screened.
Matching your skill set requirements with candidates who have strong English language skills.
Accessing the most promising talent from India's leading universities.
Reducing costs to your business with no recruitment and sourcing fees to worry about.
Totally task free, with all the logistics and administration taken care of by us,making the process painless. We will look after visas, flights, bank accounts, and accommodation.
Plus you will be taking interns who will receive a comprehensive induction, buddy system and 24 hour pastoral care. Employers only need to pay the graduate an intern salary, a very cost-effective method of recruiting talent into your organisation. How SMART is that!
Work permit numbers are limited for this programme, so if your business in the UK might be interested in having talented Indian graduate interns then do get in contact.
This new programme sits perfectly alongside the existing government-sponsored China scheme, which brings the brightest future business stars from China to the UK. The objective of both schemes is to increase the understanding of each other's business environments; encourage cultural exchange and thinking at a business level and nurture the high-flyers of the future. Many Chinese interns are offered roles in the same businesses when they return to China. This could be the case with the Indian interns, allowing strategic planning for global production, labour and economic markets.
