I work on the Social Care team recruiting Qualified Social Workers. A typical day would include using the reed.co.uk database to source Social Workers, calling them to screen them, submitting them to jobs and speccing them in to clients.

It's quite a social role, you're always talking to people and I have a good team in a sociable office. It's also satisfying placing people into jobs.

I graduated June 2016 and started on the Reed Graduate Scheme in September 2016, working in Victoria, London. I have now almost completed my first rotation on the scheme.

For my next rotation (starting in September) I will be joining the Reed Marketing team as a Marketing Executive. The great thing about this grad scheme is that you have the option to rotate into a different role for each of the 3 years, giving you great exposure to the business and experience of different roles.
