Want to find out what it feels like to work for some of the world’s top firms - from the comfort of your own desk?
Welcome to Forage - an interactive online work experience program designed to help you develop your skills and gain a real understanding of different roles and industries before you graduate.
Designed by leading companies, these online work experiences consist of self-paced modules, with tasks similar to those that you would undertake during a traditional internship.
You’ll access incredible opportunities to learn:
Digital experience: Learn the latest in business development, data analytics and digital marketing.
Global networks: Work alongside colleagues from different cultures, time zones and markets, using cloud-based tools.
Business skills: Use your innovative ideas and experience to solve real business problems and help shape a company’s future.
