Review by: Buket Aydinlik
1 year ago, I was just a Marketing Graduate with so little work experience. Step found me a 3 months Marketing Placement with a manufacturing company called Atkinson-Walker. I have been to the interview and been offered the position on the same day. First, I wasn’t so sure about the job as it was only for 3 months, but I accepted it anyway. In a few weeks, I started to enjoy the tasks I got involved in and found the opportunity of applying what I learnt in uni into day to day business. As I also have a education background in Engineering, doing marketing in a manufacturing company was a perfect match with my background and skills! I performed well in the roles I was responsible for and have been offered a permanent position at the end of my placement.
I have been working for Atkinson-Walker as a Sales and Marketing Assistant for 1 year now, and I am very happy with the progress I have made in my career.
I recommend Step placements to every graduate without hesitation. They bring the right jobs to you! At the end of Step placements, the chances of permanent employment is very high, as Step already puts you through the positions that perfectly match with your profile.
