1st time working together

During the last 9 months or so, I have worked with several members of the NGTU team, to develop a number of key activities to help showcase our apprenticeship programmes. During that time, I have felt supported and engaged with on the various activities. Emails are responded to promptly, information and stats are produced in a timely manner.

They’re on a mission!

It’s a pleasure working with Conor and I like what they’re doing in the early careers space. The more organisations can do to help people make an informed decision for the first steps in their career the better. And NGTU are passionate about playing their part.

Not built for an SME and not as advertised.

An an employer, the sales team overpromised and the results in the number of applications were pitiful.

Indeed and LinkedIn costs a fraction of this service and has yielded more than twenty times the results.

I would unless you have too much money to spend or are a large company really needing to get the whole of the market.

Hello James,

Thank you for your review.

We appreciate all feedback and will pass this back to the team.

As with all recruitment advertising there are no promises. We are a job board aimed at young people from the ages of 16-24 and have delivered results for 100's of clients throughout the years. We are sorry this didn't work for you.

So many incredible opportunities!

Amazing website packed full of incredible opportunities for people who don’t want to go to university. The blog posts and case studies are also really helpful to hear first hand from people who have been in a similar position.
