WEXO is a networking community focused on work experience. Currently working with over 300 aspirational companies including Sony Music, Working Title and Giorgio Armani and a whole host of smaller SMEs, WEXO uses its contacts to open doors to opportunities to its member, offering work experience, internships and job opportunities.
The brainchild of London fixer Harry Becher and ex-investment banker Robin Kennedy, WEXO’s filtration technology automatically ranks applicants according to their skills. Companies can market, manage and match opportunities to applicants ensuring that the most suitable candidate is to one who gets the job. Central to the proposition is to break down the ‘it’s not what you know, but who you know’ barriers traditionally present in industries such as media, marketing, entertainment and fashion.
An account can be easily created on the site, and at no cost whatsoever. If you are a student in pursuit of the tools for procuring a work experience to meet your abilities, this network will more than likely point you in the right direction.
Wexo.co.uk In Their Own Words
“WEXO is a networking community for those requiring or offering Work Experience, internships AND jobs…
WEXO is for everyone, but is principally targeting school leavers and graduates. Over 200 of the most dynamic and aspirational companies in the UK have already signed up: from Sony BMG to Conde Nast, Dunhill to Guinness Asset Management, Original Travel to Purple PR, and from Working Title to the children’s charity, Kids Company. In addition, WEXO has signed up a host of smaller and younger companies who lack the reach and resources of their larger counterparts.
With many of us now being forced to look beyond our comfort zones for jobs and opportunities, work experience is becoming ever more important for those entering employment. WEXO is a natural and necessary addendum to the social networking sites that have become such a familiar part of our lives.”
