The WorkBank

The Workbank is a fantastic idea for a social hub in which students can find casual, part time and full time work to fund their way through university. It is based up on the second floor of the Liverpool John Moore’s University student union building. Not only is it good for students looking for work, but it’s also a great idea for recruiters looking to employ a specific age range or group of people with similar interests and skills to what they need.
I’ve had two jobs through Workbank over the years. One was simply a flyering job which was easy, casual work when I was in my first year of university. The second was an 8 week writing contract after I graduated with my Journalism degree. This was really well paid and I was pleased to get a rate like I did from a student recruitment agency!

Finding a job has never been more difficult in our current economic climate. And this is where I wholeheartedly applaud WorkBank! In partnership with universities, this place seeks to hunt down careers for graduates and current students.
Situated on the second floor of JMU’s student union building, WorkBank is easy to access. Their staff are really friendly and helpful and seemed to genuinely care about my future prospects. They helped me re-​do my CV (which was appalling, Microsoft Word is not my strong point) which opened up all kinds of job opportunities to me.
There should be more places like these around to help students.
I’m a fan!

The WorkBank which is situated on Maryland street on the second floor of the LJMU student union is a fantastic establishment which is dedicated to helping out of work students find employment. The process of registration is simple you enter the office book an appointment and they then set you up on their system. A weekly visit should be enough to keep you in the forefront of their mind and when work is available they will text you with an offer. The staff are very friendly and helpful and as former students themselves they understand the need for some extra cash which students have. They system also helps to find graduates work during the limbo period when uni finishes and you are forced to make serious decisions about your future,
The WorkBank is an exceptional place full of people who are willing and ready to help so students in need of some extra beer money should get down there and check it out.
