GO Wales News
Radio campaign launched to boost graduate opportunities!
GO Wales has launched a Real Radio marketing campaign this week to promote the benefits of graduate Work Placements to businesses in Wales.
The campaign which will be aired during the ‘drive time’ radio show features Gareth Spencer, Managing Director of CD and DVD Duplication and Authoring company Dischromatics in Abercarn who were established in 1989, they have, thanks to GO Wales, successfully introduced a new graphic design service to the business after taking on a graduate Creative Graphic Designer through the programme.
This was Gareth’s first experience of GO Wales; he recruited Graphic Design graduate Gareth Thomas to head up new graphic design and DVD and Blu-ray authoring department for the business; “Gareth allowed us to introduce a brand new Graphic Design service to the company which has also enabled us to expand the range of services we offer to clients and look forward to a future at the forefront of the creative industries in Wales, something we would not have otherwise been able to do without the GO Wales assistance.”
Since the Work Placement, Gareth Thomas has been offered a longer term position with Dischromatics and there are a few more opportunities on the horizon. Gareth Spencer explains; “We have since employed Gareth on a full time basis to head up our Creative Department and develop a new brand for the company which we will launch in 2012. We are currently advertising a placement for a graduate to help us create a ‘Digital Office’ and we may well be looking for another one in the next few months!”
When asked if he would recommend GO Wales Work Placements to other small businesses, Gareth said; “the work placement allowed us to expand into a new area which we had wanted to do for a while, without an extortionate financial risk & commitment. I would have no hesitation in recommending GO Wales to other businesses.”
