Early Careers Recruitment Programme Self-Assessment Tool
This self-assessment tool is designed to help you evaluate your graduate and internship programmes across four critical areas: Strategy, Attraction, Selection, Learning and Development. By reflecting on your responses in each area, you can identify key opportunities for prioritisation and focus in 2025.
Intern Experience Checklist
Setting up your intern for success begins well before their first day. This checklist is designed to guide you through each step, ensuring they feel welcomed, supported and integrated into the team from day one to their last day.
