Welcome to our third newsletter. We've had a bit of fun putting this together this month as there has been a load of things going on! We also upgraded our server this month - so hope you all have noticed the difference in speed on the site... The Yellow Jelly Design Competition
We've found a great Design Comp and are proud to sponsor Yellow Jelly, a graphic design competition hosted by Adrem Creative Recruitment. Open to designers of all levels, the Yellow Jelly brief will be set by a major brand in the industry, giving designers the chance to really make their mark and get some fantastic exposure. Shortlisted entries will form an exhibition at the dreamspace gallery in February 2008 and the winner and runners-up will be presented with their prizes at an exclusive presentation party. Whatever your level, contact the dreamspace gallery for an entry pack now. Click here for more information. The deadline is 14th January 2008. The Green Awards 2007
On Friday 26 October, the winners of The Green Awards 2007 were announced at London's Guildhall. Launched last year, The Green Awards recognise outstanding creative work that communicates the importance of corporate social responsibility, sustainable development and ethical best practice. All sectors and marketing disciplines were included with award entries promoting anything from fair trade and renewable energy to resource efficiency and waste awareness.

October 2007 - February 2008 From exploding paint bombs on a Glasgow council estate to sell televisions (Sony Bravia), to a wind-up laptop that makes technology available in the remotest corners of the world (One Laptop per Child); the D&AD Exhibition, which has just launched at Urbis - Manchester's cultural exhibition centre, will enable visitors to learn the stories behind the advertising and design that impacts on our everyday lives and enjoy the work produced by hundreds of leading creative minds, worldwide.

After months of hard work and planning, Graphics Personnel has a new name and brand: With Us. Our success at all levels of Creative, Creative Services and Studio recruitment across Print and Digital meant we'd simply outgrown our original name.
