  What happens after your candidate says “yes”? The time between offer acceptance and start date is an important window – not just for candidate engagement, but for planning a smooth and meaningful transition into your graduate program.

  Join us for a virtual roundtable discussion designed for early careers professionals who want to strengthen their pre-onboarding experience, reimagine their graduate transition to work activities and ensure key internal stakeholders are aligned throughout the journey.

  This interactive session will be a chance to:

  • Hear insights from AAGE surveys where graduates share feedback on employer pre-onboarding activities
  • Share strategies that keep future grads warm, connected and excited about joining your organisation
  • Explore how to use the post-offer period to refine your onboarding and development plans
  • Learn how others in the early careers space bring stakeholders into the conversation and make them active participants in candidate care.
    

  Bring your questions, insights and ideas from your own programs – this session is about peer-to-peer learning, real-world examples and sparking fresh thinking.

  • 1.00pm - 2.00pm ACT/NSW/TAS/VIC/QLD time

  This forum is designed for experienced early careers recruiters, campus engagement specialists and program leads who are looking to strengthen and evolve their early talent strategies. It will explore how organisations can identify and engage promising talent earlier in the student journey - including before final year - through effective outreach, partnership models and pipeline-building approaches.

  Bringing together employer members and early careers leaders, the session will create space to share current practice, discuss future ambitions and examine how early career programs can be elevated to better support long-term talent identification, access and conversion. Attendees will leave with ideas for identifying talent earlier, building stronger student pipelines and shaping more strategic early career programs.

  Key themes include:

  • Programs for pre-penultimate cohorts (work experience, cadetships, traineeships, apprenticeships, WIL, internships, clerkships)
  • Engagement through events and marketing
  • Diversity and inclusion in early identification
  • Partnerships with high schools, governing bodies, universities and third-party providers.

  The session will be structured around information sharing, discussion and practical action planning and will consider opportunities for shared practice, collaboration and advocacy across the sector.
