    Red Flag Recruitment is in the hideous Tower Point, a building that reeks of despair and…read moredesperation, but that's the only negative thing I could say about it. Run by two friendly, chirpy gentlemen who seem bright as buttons even first thing in the morning, it isn't so much like an employment agency as one of your friends nudging your CV to the top of the manager's pile, albeit in a very professional way. They engage with your personality, offer you a range of options and help and advise right the way through the process. It feels very much like they're on your side. Admittedly the options they have aren't going to ignite the creative juices and let loose the hounds, but if your gastronomic juices are beginning to make themselves felt, a job through these guys could keep the wolf from the door for a couple of months. Their service would be hard to fault. They really do take the stress out of applying for rubbish day jobs, down to telling you what you're expected to wear so you don't turn up feeling out of place and ill at ease, walking you over to your interview and drilling you thoroughly so that you know what the employers really want to hear. Admittedly it's more of a silk purse into a sow's ear transition, watering individual personalities down into bland mulch that call centre managers can stomach, but if anyone's going to do that, albeit temporarily, I'd rather it was these guys. They have the unique perspective of knowing exactly what they're doing, and admitting that you want the job for the money, not for 'career advancement' or 'broadening experience' - very refreshing.

    I'm not usually one for writing reviews, but after my time spent with Red Flag Recruitment, I…read morethought they thoroughly deserved a recommendation. It was a tough few months trying to find work, and after handing my CV to a dozen agencies, hating it, stressing out and hearing nothing I was ready to chuck the towel in and move back with my folks. Red Flag on the other hand, were a total gem. Most temp agencies are stuffy, pretentious places that make you feel edgy and out of place and as soon as you walk through the doors. In comparison, the guys at Red Flag are relaxed, friendly, genuine and really on the ball. Not only did they manage to find me a job immediately, but when my temp contract ended, they had me back into another the very next day. Temping's such a one-in-one-out world, but the boys at Red Flag really look after their folks. They kept in touch with me weekly and frequently laid other options on the table should I want to jump ship and do something else. Most importantly, Simon and Toby who run the company really know the score. I just wanted to make enough money to pay the bills and enjoy my weekends, and didn't have to pretend I was thirsty to prove myself as manager material in some new call center. Their frankness and friendliness marks them out from every other agency I've been with. So if you're looking for some post-graduation temp work in Brighton and you don't want to spend hours traipsing the streets and trying to convince recruiters that this is your dream job, then Red Flag Recruitment are definitely the guys to go with.

    Sussex, can I give you 500 stars? Please?…read more After two years at one of the best unis in the states, I decided to spend my entire third year abroad at the University of Sussex. It had all the courses I needed for my major, was located in the lushest of lush green hills -- any nature geek's dream -- and had every society (USA: club) known to man. Throw in the flood of colorful buildings and quirky shops, the pier, 'diversity' - as evident in its restaurants as its people - and I was beyond sold. Since I was going to spend the entire year there, rather than the traditional American Spring abroad, I was housed in a building full of Brits (and Brits with expat parents) and two Aussies. A dream come true! This was exactly why I had chosen to do a year abroad rather than a semester - I wanted to actually integrate with another culture and, trust me, British [uni] culture is VERY different. I could go on and on and on about how much I loved Sussex. I never got "involved" back home. Not in high school, not really in college, and then I studied abroad. I joined every society I said I would in my study abroad application and then some. I went to the French Alps with Sussex Snow, the Peak District and Wales with the Walking (USA: Hiking) Society, took photos of cows and leaves (just behind campus) with the Photo Society, and made friends in the International Society from Sri Lanka, Germany, and Indonesia I still talk to today. Icing on the cake -- I got a job at my uni's Study Abroad office the second I got back. I'm still in touch with my old flatmates (four-floors worth) -- I guess Facebook serves a purpose! My little ducklings graduated this summer. I love them all to bits. Living with freshers could have been horrific, but it was hysterical and I had a new family within my first week. A word of advice for anyone going here: If you're from America, INTEGRATE! Love of god.. don't go traveling every weekend and then complain you don't know any British people (true story. I, on the other hand, didn't meet other Americans until 5 months in!). If you're a full-time Sussex student, grab the Americans and get them 'involved.' I love the British meaning of that word. :) Quick Summary: + people (watching your flatmates from London see snow for the first time is priceless) + pubs on campus + LOCATION .. outrageously beautiful. Makes a return to the concrete world painful + societies (so many, and everyone is so damn enthusiastic. America could take a lesson.) - classes were hit/miss (but I had the 'cultural' education of a lifetime) - multiple protests, everywhere, all the time (about everything from human rights to budget cuts) - leaving (why does it have to end?)

    I did my summer study abroad here back in 2010 for the physics courses and it was a great…read moreexperience! All the teachers, staff, and classmates were super awesome and friendly. I stayed in Park Village (farthest away from campus) and had my own room with sink and shared bathroom and kitchen. The campus was not that big and you can easily walk from one one to the other in less than thirty minutes. There are a lot of grass areas where you can sit and study or play football. There is a convenient store/mini mart on campus near the dorms so if you ever run out of snacks, you can easily go down there to grab stuff. There's also a post office so you can go there and send mail/postcards back home. There's even a pub on campus!
