I was reading things about recruitment agencies, such as FDM, Crapita (now known as Peregrine), Grayce, and Sparta Global, LARPing as graduate schemes to fool new graduates into joining them. These agencies:
SCREENSHOTS ABOUT THE EMPLOYEES.
GO ON THEIR WEBSITES, YOU WILL SEE MOSTLY ETHNIC (BLACK, SEA, PAKISTANI, BENGALI) AND POOR WHITE EMPLOYEES THERE.
THE EXIT FEES THEY HAVE TO PAY IF THEY WANT TO QUIT:
ADVICE TO YOUNG ZOOMERS OUT THERE: DON'T APPLY OR ACCEPT THEIR SCHEMES. DO SOMETHING BETTER.

TLDR:
- pay these grads very little money
- have astonishing exit fees (some as high as £20,000) if the grads want to leave mid-way through the programmes
- cover many disciplines, such as business, consultancy and tech
- from poor family backgrounds
- are often BAME (especially black, Pakistani, Bangladeshi, Southeast Asian and non-Gulf Arab)
- if white, they are from very poor, working-class family backgrounds
- are often the first in their family to go to university

TLDR:
- Recruitment agencies like FDM, Capita (now known as Peregrine), Grayce, and Sparta Global have been accused of masquerading as graduate schemes to deceive new graduates.
- These agencies tend to offer low salaries and impose hefty exit fees if graduates wish to leave mid-way through the programs.
- They cover various fields such as business, consultancy, and technology.
- It has been observed that a significant number of their graduate employees come from disadvantaged backgrounds, including low-income families and diverse ethnic backgrounds. Many employees are the first in their families to attend university.
- The provided screenshots and web links highlight the harsh realities of these schemes and shed light on the contrast between the experiences of less privileged students and their more privileged counterparts.
