Business Management

General graduate training schemes vary on what they offer so it is important that you research the company and the placements on offer before you apply.  Training schemes usually combine on the job training, modular training on the company, and training in a specific industry qualification.  You may do placements around a particular business function such as HR, Customer Relations, Marketing, or Finance.  It is rare that you will be placed in every business function so check what you are actually applying for.  Remember your graduate job will not start tomorrow with you in a management roles, so it is important that you research the jobs you will actually be doing to make sure it is right for you; not every graduate management scheme will be! You will find more information on finance and retail graduate schemes on the specific sector pages.
