“The calibre of students that we have interviewed at Lancaster has been top notch, and we continue to be impressed not only by their intellect but also their ability to apply their skills to industry-grade problems, especially in a fast-paced environment like Silicon Valley. We hope to establish a high-quality hiring pipeline of data science candidates from Lancaster University, and our recent hire is clearly no exception—he has been a great team player on the data team.''
“The two projects we have partnered with Lancaster University on have achieved very positive outcomes, which is both testament to the quality of the student resource which has been made available to us, combined with our willingness to put a bit of time and energy into supporting them to make sure they get the most of the experience. We were blown away by the students’ experience and ideas, and having an additional resource dedicated to unlocking opportunities for our business has been incredible.''
"I would highly recommend working with the team at Lancaster University who make the process of recruitment easy and pain free for any business looking for extra resource on a wide range of projects. It can be daunting for any SME business to take on new people, however, the positive aspects gained from providing internships outweighs any fears the business owner may have and I would encourage anyone who needs short term resources to consider this option for their business."
