Important information on advertising your opportunities

Posting a vacancy

  • Register your organisation on JobsLive (follow the link at the top of this page). The Careers Service will check your details and approve your organisation within one working day.
  • You can then post a vacancy, which the Careers Service will check and approve. If we don’t approve a vacancy, we will always tell you why, and, if possible, suggest amendments in order for the vacancy to be approved. Please make sure you only select one vacancy type, e.g. Internship or Graduate - Full Time, when adding your vacancy.
  • Once a vacancy has been approved and is live, you can use your account to edit it. The vacancy will then need to be rechecked by the Careers Service before going live again. If you have any problems posting or editing your vacancy, please email us and we will happily help.
  • Please note jobs posted on JobsLive are viewable by current Imperial students and recent Imperial graduates (up to three years post graduation).
  • See the Institute of Student Employers (ISE) guidance on Recruiting International Graduates - A Guide for Employers.‌‌
