About Us

“Make a life, not just a living”

Real World was founded in 1999 and has been flourishing ever since. We work with over 200 of the UK’s largest employers to help them recruit graduates. Our magazine is widely distributed at over 100 universities in the UK and has been voted four times as the best-read magazine on campus. We also arrange events, conferences and exhibitions, as well as leadership and personal development interventions.

At Real World we believe you should have a job that you want to get out of bed for. You should be doing something that’s going to inspire you, reward you and challenge you for the next 50 years. We help you do what you enjoy and enjoy what you do. We want to be the ones who tell you about the job opportunity that’ll change your life. And we want to help you to get that job and then succeed without limits.

Real World is more than just a magazine.We train people how to raise their game. Everything we do is about helping you understand your career, kick-starting it and developing it. After all, apart from sleeping, you’ll spend more time working than doing anything else in your life.

We want you to make a good living, but we also want you to make a good life in the process. No sugar-coating and no dry job jargon – Real World tells it like it is. Just the best facts, advice and opportunities.
