Sports betting research and fine wine investing were among the opportunities open to UK grads this year

The UK graduates queuing on Islington High Street for this year's London Graduate Fair would do well to aim for a first job in an unexpected industry.  

Ever considered steel trading? Stemcor was on the look-out for business-savvy grads. 

Sports betting firm ATASS was talking to maths, statistics and computer science grads for its data research business.

Provenance Fine Wines was offering the opportunity to train as a portfolio manager specialising in fine wine investments.

All great roles if you can get them, offering training and experience in interesting markets.

There were fewer Big 4-type recruiters this year than in previous years, and the ones who were there such as HSBC and Acenture, were very busy! Let's hope the graduate job market improves soon!
