The NUS and Innovate CV have joined forces to run number of regional workshops discussing a variety of graduate employment topics.

The workshops, facilitated by Lord Jim Knight in his role as associate director of Innovate CV, will take place ahead of a graduate recruitment event in London, attended by speakers including Richard Allan (director of Facebook), Fergal Sharkey (chief executive of UK Music), Greg Dyke (former director-general of the BBC) and Aaron Porter (national president of the NUS).

Innovate CV has also launched a Facebook app (http://apps.facebook.com/innovatecv/) which allows candidates to create and update their Innovate CV directly within Facebook. It also sends their CV to a partner recruitment agency directly from Facebook, which will be automatically converted into the partner’s own branded Innovate CV.
