Graduate Recruitment
Graduate recruitment takes place all year round. While around 300 employers run campus recruitment programs each March and April, the majority of graduate employers recruit throughout the year. Some recruit in the second university semester while others recruit as graduate roles become available.
Even if you don’t see the right graduate role advertised by Northeast Quadrant, you should register your CV for new opportunities. When we receive an employer request for graduates we start with a search of candidates on the Northeast Quadrant system.
Intern Recruitment
Intern recruitment takes place in the second semester. Internships are typically for a 12 month paid, full-time position with a leading organisation for students who are in their penultimate year. An internship represents a great opportunity to gain relevant industry experience and to graduate with 12 months work experience.
Because our employers are national organisations, our graduate positions are across the Australian capital cities. If you apply for a position that is out-of-state the first interview is typically by phone. However, you should be prepared to cover your own travel costs for a second round interview with the employer organisation. Some employers will pay for travel expenses but others won’t for graduate positions.
What do Northeast Quadrant employers look for in graduates? While it varies by employer, a guide is credit average academics; relevant part-time work experience; clear communication skills – both verbal and written; and strong examples of initiative, team work and problem solving skills.
