Talent To Work is a new networking club for 18-25 year olds not yet in full time employment. Membership allows you to meet industry professionals in your field of interest, boost your skills, make connections and build confidence by providing you with high profile networking opportunities.
Talent To Work was set up as a collaboration between Editorial Intelligence & New Deal of the Mind as part of their Future Jobs Fund initiative that put over 500 young people into work in the creative industries. Now that this has finished, we’re currently looking at ways to continue running Talent To Work.
Only 25% of all jobs are openly advertised. The remaining 75% are often referred to as, the hidden job market. Some jobs considered part of the hidden job market are visible, but only to small, closed subsets of the public (networks). This is why Talent To Work wants to equip you with the skills and opportunities you require to network and make contacts, in order to have access to alternative routes into work.
Partners include BAFTA, The Howard League, Thomson Reuters and the University of the Arts London.
