Miles Cook who is an Aber Grad has contacted me – he works for a company called Blurrt http://www.blurrt.co.uk/, based in Newport, South Wales – they want to take on an IY student for the first time, this is what he says:-
“As an Aber Computer Science graduate (2004) I feel I benefited greatly from the year in employment scheme, and I’m interested to see what kind of skilled and enthusiastic students we can bring in. A fixed placement with us could also lead to an offer of employment once the student has concluded their studies, as our software development team grows.
