About Graduate Prospects

Graduate Prospects is the UK’s official graduate careers support service and the commercial subsidiary of the Higher Education Careers Services Unit (HECSU). Working in partnership with other most prominent official bodies in the field of Higher Education, Graduate Prospects has been bringing students, graduates and recruiters together for over 30 years.

It is our close working relationships with AGCAS (Association of Graduate Careers Advisory Services), SCOP (Standing Conference of Principals of Colleges) and Universities UK that allow us to maintain our status as the UK’s official graduate careers support service. In recent years Graduate Prospects has also developed close links with UCAS and the NUS to ensure that we succeed in our mission: "To be the leading UK provider of graduate careers and recruitment solutions."
