The TARGETjobs National Student Challenge in partnership with Siemens is your chance to see how you stack up against your fellow students from universities right across the UK. How do you rank when you go head to head with thousands of students in mental agility, commercial awareness and numerical skills? Well; here is your chance to find out!

The TARGETjobs National Student Challenge is free of charge to enter; you’ll be in with a shot of winning a £1,000 first prize not to mention a paid internship at headline partner Siemens which will be an excellent addition to your CV!

So how does it all work?

There are two parts to the competition. The first is online and consists of four exercises which need to be completed by the registration deadline of midday on 25 November 2013. The tests are designed to challenge you and assess key qualities, traits and aptitudes which successful graduates normally exhibit. An additional benefit is that they also mimic the style and type of tests that you might be asked to take when applying for a graduate job, so this is a great chance to get in some free practice! Once you’ve finished the online exercises you will be given your scores in real time and also see where you are on the competition leaderboard.

The second part of the competition is the grand final taking place at The Crystal in London on 9 December 2013 for the top 50 students on the leaderboard. As the grand final is an invitation only event, we don’t want to give too much away, but needless to say it will be prestigious, memorable, an invaluable experience and most importantly there will be some fiendishly tough yet fun exercises created by our employer partners. At the end of the final, one student will have the title of the TARGETjobs National Student Challenge Winner 2013!

So what are you waiting for? If you want to be with a shot of winning the top prize of £1,000 not to mention a paid internship with Siemens, take the challenge and see if you have what it takes!
