Miles Cook who is an Aber Grad has contacted me – he works for a company called Blurrt\u00a0http:\/\/www.blurrt.co.uk\/<\/span><\/span><\/a>, based in Newport, South Wales – they want to take on an IY student for the first time, this is what he says:-<\/p>\n

“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.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

We are a Twitter analytics company with 4 full time staff. Our flagship product “blurrt” performs linguistic based sentiment analysis of tweets, which we can report out on per keyword \/ campaign, and offer clients dashboard reporting and analysis tools. So far our main source of work in terms of commissioned bespoke reports and subscriptions to our online tool, are broadcasters for shows that have high engagement through Twitter (such as Made in Chelsea, Sherlock). We are also in the digital agency market, and are exploring other avenues such as Politics, for example, tracking opinion on the Scottish referendum.<\/em><\/div>\n

\n<\/em><\/div>\n
I head up the development of our online web tool, partially assisted by our in house graphics designer. We require a developer with a keen interest in web development, new technologies and social media. Their role will be to assist in the continual development of our product and as a secondary role, to assist with the company website.<\/strong>“<\/em><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Salary is \u00a316k<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Please email your CV and cover letter to miles@blurrt.co.uk<\/span><\/span><\/a> .<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Closing date is 3rd February<\/strong>.\u00a0 Again, this one is only being advertised to Aber students.\u00a0 You are in demand this year!\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42<\/strong><\/div>\n
