What’s new then?

We’ve been working hard over the past few months designing, developing and testing the new-look RateMyPlacement.co.uk. As you can see, the new website brings a sleeker, cleaner and easier to navigate design, with a host of new features.

But RateMyPlacement was already great – why the need to improve it?

There’s always room for improvement! The ‘old’ design had been in place since March 2007 when we initially launched the website to Loughborough Uni students and since then we’ve been bolting bits and pieces on. We felt it was time bring the website fully up-to-date for the new academic year, refreshing the design and incorporating some important new features.

Is that all you’re doing?

This is really just the start of a whole range of improvements and new features that we’re going to be adding over the next few months. Whilst we are already confident that the website is the number one online resource for students, universities and employers involved in work placements and internships, we believe there are many more areas in which we could improve the website for you. These include enhancing the community aspect of the website, allowing more students to interact and share ideas and discussions around everything to do with all aspects of work experience.

If you have any comments or feedback about the site we would love to hear them, we are all ears.
