t’s that time again. As from 1st December the briefs for B-Hive 2013 are available to download from the B-Hive website.

As per last year there are five categories to choose from: Marketing, PR, Graphic Design, Web Design and Advertising. By answering the brief, students from participating Universities and colleges will have the chance to present to a panel of judges representing six companies per category.

Each judge will offer a student four weeks paid work experience which means that overall B-Hive has 120 weeks of paid work experience up for grabs. Competition in the job market is fierce for graduates and B-Hive has a proven track record of improving employability by working with some of the region’s leading companies.

The participating companies are also keen to find the talent of tomorrow and pick from the very best. The competition represents the perfect platform to put students to the test not only on how they answer the brief but how they present to a panel.

Over the years B-Hive has helped winners secure permanent full time careers off the back of their work experience and raise awareness of the region’s creative, PR and marketing community.
