Vodafone calls on new graduates - graduate jobs

Graduates with an eye for the latest technological developments have been targeted by communications giant Vodafone for its latest recruitment scheme.

University leavers looking for their first position could do far worse than the £25,000 starting salary and 28 days holiday that are guaranteed as part of the scheme which ends on 29 January.

There are 50 positions available on the programme, with each successful candidate embarking on a 12-month training course to prepare them for a potential future with the company that boasts a workforce of 79,000 across the world.

Matthew Brearley, Vodafone's head of human resources, told the Independent: "Vodafone offers a world of opportunity and a working environment at the cutting edge of technological and social change."

Candidates will have to be quick if they are to make it onto the shortlist, with online applications closing on Saturday.
