FAQ: Digital Career Developer Program

Is there a cost to the graduate for the Digital Career Development Program? 

There is no cost whatsoever to you.  

Is the program online or would I need to travel?  

Currently, it's a remote (online) program. There is no travelling involved. However, once COVID-19 has become more manageable, this may change dependent on the requirements of individual businesses.  

Would successful completion of the program increase my chance of getting a job at the end of the 8 weeks?  

Yes. We select and partner up with businesses that are looking to employ graduates after the 8 weeks. The chances are that if you perform well, they could offer you employment.  

Will other employers recognise the program's value?  

Employers will of course recognise the value of the program. By partaking in the Digital Career Development Program you will show employers that you have the tenacity, drive and determination to carve out a career in the highly competitive field of digital marketing. Also, at the end of you completing the program successfully you will receive a positive and valuable reference from the employer you have worked with.  

Will I be working with groups of other graduates? 

No. This experience is about you, the individual. Almost all of the graduates we place with our partner businesses are placed exclusively to that one business. This means that you have the opportunity to be exposed to a number of different real-world digital marketing tasks and practices to help widen your experience. 

The only time you come together as a group will be during the weekly online up skill sessions which will be hosted by Lead Kinetics and streamed via the Lead kinetics Facebook Community. 

How many days will I work each week? 

You will work for the business partner for 3 days per week over 8 weeks. As mentioned above, Lead Kinetics provide digital marketing up skilling once per week and digital marketing support should you need it.  

What type of projects would we work on?  

That depends entirely on the individual business, we look for business partners that can offer a mix of digital marketing experiences. If you are interested in a specific role within marketing (e.g. social media management) we work to match you up with those types of opportunities. Mainly employers are looking for social media content creation, blog content and image creation.  

When would the course start?  

There is no start date for the program to start. The program starts when you have a chosen a business you'd like to work for and you have spoken to them and agreed on a start date. 

Which area in the UK might the employer be based in?  

Work would be done remotely due to travel restrictions during COVID-19, this may change once COVID-19 becomes more manageable.
