I am currently studying Computer forensics and security and i have my placement year next year, i have been looking around for a forensics based placement but have had no luck. Does anybody know of places that regularly take on students for there placements anywhere in the UK.
Thank you
Three companies that may be of interest
1. Deloitte, London
2. Consilio, London
3. Millnet (haven't taken on before when I asked, but of course it is worth a phone call)
4. Your county's HTCU (Hampshire & Cheshire have taken students before, but typically is un-paid)
4.1 Hampshire's will be moving from Southampton to Portsmouth within the next year or two, I believe.
Thank you for all the suggestions i will check them out. hopefully they might have a few places available
Good afternoon Zhilton,
I see from your profile that you are based in Manchester - you may want to consider our Liverpool practice for a placement.
Best point of contact is Ms Davies (jdavies@afentis.com) - ping across a CV with covering letter and she'd be happy to discuss opportunities.
Kind regards,
Ross
Thank you for replying to my post, i have just looked over the afentis website and it seems very interesting. I will send a CV/covering letter within the next few days. I look forward to discussing a possible placement with you.
Hi Zhilton,
I am in the same situation as I am currently looking for a placement myself.
Did you have any look in your search? )
