The key to achieving growth and change is recruiting the most talented, qualified and motivated people into the right culture and giving them every opportunity to succeed. We offer a nine week structured summer internship program, which is a vital tool in our graduate hiring process. You will work alongside some of the brightest and best, learning about our organization, a specific business area, our clients and the products and services we offer. A variety of events and workshops ensure your experience is packed with learning, training and networking opportunities. Evaluation is a serious element of the program and successful interns will be offered a graduate position for the following year.
We are looking for penultimate year students with a range of perspectives, experiences and skills – and the potential to make a real difference. Academic credentials are important but these need to be coupled with strong communication skills, creativity, perseverance and tenacity. For us it is not your background or what you have studied that matters; it is your ability to learn and to contribute.
Our Sydney summer internship program starts 8 December 2008 and will finish 6 February 2009.
We are also looking for students from Australian universities to join summer internship programs in Hong Kong and Singapore (December 2008- February 2009). Applicants with Mandarin (reading, written & spoken) will be strongly preferred. Visa sponsorship is provided.
Applications for Sydney and Asia programs close 16 July 2008.
