The Northamptonshire-based recruitment agency will support students at career events and open evenings, offering advice about employment options.
ACS Recruitment is also working with teaching staff to bring real industry challenges into the classroom.
Recently, ACS Recruitment staff spoke to students about the recruitment sector, employability skills, and career planning.
