Review:

AfterCollege provides employers with access to a network of 5 million students at 2,300 colleges and universities. A vast network of on-campus contacts ensures that suitable candidates are alerted to internships and entry-level opportunities via job listings and outreach initiatives.

There are several European tertiary institutions listed on the job board, including top U.K. colleges and universities. There are, however, currently no U.K. vacancies listed on the site.

Pros:

  • Employers can access a network that comprises 138 top-ranked universities in Europe, including Cambridge and Oxford.
  • AfterCollege is more affordable than other U.K.-specific job boards aimed at students, such as Milkround and Graduatejobs.
  • Job listings appear on the website and on academic networking platforms.
  • Job listings and/or student and faculty outreach credits can be purchased.
  • Dedicated account managers perform targeted outreach initiatives.
  • Machine learning technology targets relevant job candidates.
  • Scholarships offered by AfterCollege may attract top talent to the site.

Cons:

  • Unlike similar higher education job boards, employers are not able to perform resume database searches.
  • AfterCollege does not provide free posting options, such as CareerHub, Internwise), and StudentJob.
  • The site is only available in English, which may limit the number of job seekers from other European countries.
  • Pricing is only available in U.S. dollars.
  • There is no local support available.
  • AfterCollege is quite U.S.-centric, allowing users to search by "State" instead of by country or region in the U.K.

AfterCollege vs. LinkedIn:

AfterCollege and LinkedIn both feature entry-level professional job listings. LinkedIn is a global professional networking site, while After-College focuses on U.S. university and college graduates seeking jobs and internships. Neither offers free job listing services.

AfterCollege vs. Indeed:

AfterCollege and Indeed differ vastly. AfterCollege is a U.S. job board aimed at university and college graduates and requires payment to list jobs. Indeed is a global job board that features all job sectors, and it includes free options. Indeed offers resume searches which AfterCollege does not.

AfterCollege vs. Reed.co.uk:

AfterCollege and Reed.co.uk are similarly priced, but AfterCollege focuses on entry-level jobs for college students and graduates, while Reed.co.uk only permits U.K. job postings, limiting your reach if you're hiring remote workers. However, Reed.co.uk does have more features and offers sizeable discounts to new clients.
