They are a place for customers to network, share ideas and experiences about their journey back to employment via discussions. We'll be popping in with "hot off the press" opportunities and job search tips, but these are online customer networking groups and so we invite customers of Emplacement People to join them. 

If you are a customer of Emplacement People, please go to the Groups tab in LinkedIn and search for Emplacement People.  Here you will find three groups:

  • Emplacement People Customers - Berkshire
  • Emplacement People Customers - Buckinghamshire
  • Emplacement People Customers - Hampshire

Our new Twitter account is up and running.  Come and join us @emplacement_ltd.
