Some people graduate University and discover that what they have been studying for the last four years is not the direction they want to head in life at all.

We have heard this story numerous times so at ProGrad so we do not assess people on their degree and what they passed and failed, but rather on the key competencies that they show as a person.

If you think that you are a graduate who is ambitious, confident, and has excellent written and verbal communication skills then we will have the position for you!

The positions ProGrad offer are in business to business sales with great earning potential and bonus packages.

ProGrad is Australia’s leading assessment, training and placement company for graduate students.

The graduates that have passed the telephone interview and are fortunate enough to attend a ProGrad assessment day will be assessed on key competencies that will be suitable for a Business to Business sales role.

Graduates will be assessed as soon as they walk through the door on:

·         The way they present themselves. It is important that you wear corporate attire. It is a formal business interview so please wear a suit or dress pants/skirt and a shirt.

·         The way they introduce themselves to the other graduates on the day. You will have your chance to introduce yourself to the group. Here it is important to be confident!

·         During the group games it is important that you show that you can work in a team environment and make sure you get involved!

·         Then it is time for your 3 minute presentation. Once again we are looking for confident candidates. Believe in what you are presenting to us and go for your life! It is a good idea to put your speech onto palm cards to assist you but to also make you look well prepared!

If you have any other queries or questions about ProGrad’s assessment days you can contact Nicola directly at nicola.christoffersen@prograd.com.au or on (02)8235 8300
