Do you like to procrastinate? Seeing as you're reading this, and not yet either in a graduate job earning exuberant wads of cash or else scouring the website for opportunities, I'm disposed to bet on the answer being a yes.

Do you like to procrastinate? Seeing as you're reading this, and not yet either in a graduate job earning exuberant wads of cash or else scouring the website for opportunities, I'm disposed to bet on the answer being a yes. Teasing aside - because I know how hard you really are trying - wouldn't it be good if having some well deserved R&R, doing something a little bit fun, actually contributed towards the skills at your disposal? Skills which might be used to wow prospective employers.

As you are now evidently nodding feverishly, yearning for the answer, let us allow the veil of mystery to fall. The GRB website now has a new feature - free GRB specific Brain Training games.

"Ok," you say, "but aren't games for children and the nerdy?" Not so, these simple games are designed to help exercise your reactions, attention to detail, memory and mathematics. Regular playing is also proven to improve brain activity and sharpness.

The games are designed, and genuinely work, to warm the brain up prior to a lecture, or else increase mental cogency and fluidity before interviews or presentations; providing a relaxing way to prep you for all manner of scenarios from your university days, right through in to a career environment, should you so wish.

You might still be wary so the rest of the article will be taken up by a testimonial from yours truly. For instance, longer number sequences can be made easy - a skill which can easily be imagined into a working environment - thanks to the memory exercise. The reaction game aids you in responding quicker and thus fending off the competition in lectures or internship environments. This will make you look better, which will make you more employable - it is simple biology.

As for attention to detail, well here is a must have skill in any environment, so sharpening up is nothing to be sniffed at. The benefits, after a few days training, are evident. Finally mathematics, the bête-noir of many, can be improved at a basic yet crucial level, again yielding unforeseen benefits.
