2020 Graduate Programmes

Finishing college can be daunting. What’s next, where do I look for jobs, what opportunities are there for new graduates?

If this is something you’re thinking about, a Graduate Programme could be the right choice. There are entry-level positions available in almost every industry which offer a structured, tried and tested approach to get experience in the workplace.

To make your search a little bit easier, I’ve put together this list of Grad Programmes around Ireland.

Don’t forget, just because you might not have studied in that particular industry doesn’t mean they won’t need someone like you (e.g. banks don’t just need finance graduates)! Do some research and apply to roles you think would suit you and your skills - good luck!
