Employ students and graduates

There are many fantastic reasons to hire Deakin graduates. Our courses offer practical, industry-relevant learning that ensures our students are ready for the workforce. As well as up-to-date specialist skills in their field, students develop key employability skills such as communication, critical thinking, problem-solving, teamwork and self-management.

By recruiting Deakin graduates, you can inject new thinking into your business to solve a problem or advance a project. The DeakinTALENT Graduate Recruitment Services provides a full service that includes:

• supporting your recruitment efforts with a free service that includes candidate search, screening and shortlisting as well as access to Deakin’s digital resume review and video interviewing tools
• advertising your internship and employment opportunities on our dedicated Jobs & Internships Board, the promotion of vacancies to targeted student cohorts and opportunities to connect directly with students through employer panels and careers events
• access to a skilled pool of freelancers as an on-demand workforce, working on site or remotely from the DeakinTALENT FreelancingHUB under the guidance of our team.

Deakin students can bring a new and fresh approach to your projects. They are eager to learn and gain real-world experience to help them in their career journey.

Hosting a Deakin student for an internship with your organisation is an effective way to identify talent and create a recruitment pipeline. If you are an employer looking to engage with the next generation of students, we can help.
