what we do
... graduate development

Developing the lifeblood of your business.

Fresh, capable talent is the lifeblood of your business - it is therefore essential to attract and retain the best talent available through effective recruitment, development and motivation of the best graduates. Too often, the unrealistic expectations engendered in education, combined with the hard sell of the recruitment process leads to graduates being disenchanted from an early stage. We can help your graduates find the commitment and focus that matures into engagement and loyalty. At the same time, we help them to develop emotionally and instil the interpersonal skills needed to cope with corporate life.

Approach :
Our approach combines intensive learning and development with on-going support. A series of intensive development sessions cover: soft skills, business simulation, social projects, practical application and experiential learning with theory and psychometrics. This is supported with on-going: mentoring, coaching, business projects and distance learning. These elements are brought together as a seamless process, focused on the future needs of your business, benefiting both your organisation and the individual. Your solution will be built specifically around your business calling upon proven modules and methodology. We can supply anything from a one off induction day to an assessment or development centre to an all-encompassing graduate development programme.

Enhance your selection process through assessment centres Support them in their early months through focused support i.e. accommodation search Get them on-track from the start with induction programmes Challenge them to take personal responsibility and challenge themselves Instil an awareness and understanding of your company's values Provide on-going assessment and talent development through these early stages
