Net World Sports
PLACEMENT Junior Web Developer
Dear students looking for an IY placement,
Net World Sports is a company based in Wrecsam, who sell online. I visited our IY student there 2 years ago, and it was a very successful placement. This is an ideal position for someone who’s looking for an IY in the field of web development.
Because of where it is (on the edge of the town), it helps if you have your own transport. Though don’t let that put you off applying if you haven’t.

Elanco Placement Opportunities
Dear students looking for an IY placement,
Please see the attached. I believe both are suitable for IY placements; certainly the web developer one is aimed at placement students (I am seeking clarification on the other, because the advert wording is not explicit).
Don’t give up on getting a placement! Jobs are still coming in, and you have until the end of August to let us know, if you decide to come back to Aber instead of taking an IY.
Read the email below – note that applications go to placements@elanco.com <mailto:placements@elanco.com> and start on 3rd August, in Hook, Hampshire.

DeltaXML, Malvern
DeltaXML are a company who have students from us often, and they’ve been good placements. They would be conducting interviews over video (Skype or similar), due to the virus situation, so there would be no need to travel. The start date would also likely depend on the virus situation. So there is no need to be concerned about them wanting you to start before things have settled again.
You can do this one; all they need is Java, and an understanding of XML (we did some of that in CS15020).
Please let me know if you’re applying. It would be good to know what sort of numbers we have still seriously looking for this sort of placement.

Earth Observation/Software Development Industrial Placement – Plymouth Marine Laboratory
Dear students,
This job has just come in. PML are an organisation we used to regularly send IY students to, but they haven’t had any from us for a few years. So I very much hope that we can re-establish the connection. Note that this job will be of particular interest if you’re a Linux person! Many of you have the skills they need (Node.js is just JavaScript…), so go for it!
And it looks like a very interesting job too.
Angharad
Good Afternoon,
I hope you will be able to help; we are recruiting for 3 industrial placements in software development/programming for use in satellite earth observation for use in marine conservation.
I would be grateful if you could circulate attached info to your students or post to your jobs boards/student information pages:

ETL Junior Data Consultant (Placement Year) – Bangor
Dear all,
I have just received this advert for an IY placement in Bangor ETL Bangor. They have come directly to me to ask for students, so that means they are actively wanting Aberystwyth Comp Sci students (not Bangor ones 😉 ).
One of you will most probably get this job. It also appears to be a very caring, ethical company, with flexible working. The pay isn’t the highest, but the benefits are good (and Bangor isn’t the most expensive place to live…)
If you apply, I’d appreciate it if you’d let me know. I would like to establish a long-term relationship with this company, so I really hope a good few of you will apply.

Morwenna has just contacted me with this one. It sounds fascinating. As they say:
“The placement will be a technology development role focussed on the use of Natural Language Processing and related technologies for cognitive data searchand exploration of unstructured data”
This could well be ideal for an AI or data science student.
It’s the last job on this page:
