BLINK - And you ask yourself,
where did the year go?

It seems like it was only yesterday and the graduate industry was starting the year with the doom and gloom of GFC and the great unknown. Well moving on through our September Graduate Insights Breakfast Seminar and the November AAGE Conference and it is very clear from the positive discussion that there is a real sense of renewed optimism. The planning process for 2010 has begun, it is almost Christmas and then it all starts again!

How will your organisation position itself heading into a 2011 graduate intake? How will you add value to your Graduate proposition and how will you convince your key stakeholders on the return on investment they can get from their Graduate program?

We welcome the hundreds of NEW people who have registered for FUSE over the last few months and we hope this final 2009 edition of Fuse continues to provide you with insights and advice on how you and your organisation can better position your graduate proposition and maximize the popularity of feeding fresh and innovative new talent into your organizations.

This edition of Fuse will continue to gather valuable insights from a wide spectrum of industry leaders, innovators and partners who will openly share their thoughts and philosophies to enhance your programs and position you as Graduate Employer of Choice.
