Module 1: Mindset
In the first module, I take you through the mindset needed to get a graduate job. An absolutely crucial first step which 99% of people applying for graduate jobs haven’t ever thought about. This module ensures that you start your job search on the right foot, in the right frame of mind and focussing on exactly the right things and with the correct behaviours. Get some of these aspects wrong and you aren’t going to be successful through the process.
Module 2: Pre-Application
We cover the pre-application phase of the process in Module 2, again, one which the vast majority of candidates completely overlook. Getting a graduate job is akin to running a marathon. The problem is that the majority of candidates who apply ignore the pre-application phase, which is like turning up at the start of a marathon having done 3 days training, and then wondering why it hasn’t gone well. Module 2 gets you ready for the start line. It covers what you need to be working on and practising, what and how to do research, and crucially who you need to be speaking to. Get these in place and you’re setting yourself up for success.
Module 3: Initial Application Phase
The initial application phase module is split into 6 video tutorials covering:
75% of candidates fail at this stage, yep 75%, so we go deeeeep into exactly what you need to do to make sure that you are one of the 25% that sails through this stage unscathed. This module is a biggy, with individual videos on CVs, cover letters, and online applications. We cover how to create CVs and cover letters which are going to get you results, and included are templates that you can customise and use for yourself, so you don’t have to reinvent the wheel, or use a ropey CV format from a friend of a friend.
I really go into detail on how to answer the questions that you will face with an online application, yes those answers that range between 50-500 words, of why you want to work for company X, or the competency questions you will face. I share insider secrets of how to answer these, and the crucial mistakes that most candidates make. We spend a lot of time on this module, but if you don’t get this right, then you won’t be progressing to the next stage.
Module 4: Online Tests
I take you through exactly what you need to be doing to beat this stage of the process, which is explicitly designed to whittle down the numbers. Between 50-70% of candidates fall at this stage, and after watching the video for Module 4 you will make sure this isn’t you.
Module 5: Initial Interview Stage
The is another big one as it covers the initial interview stage. This module is split into 6 video tutorials covering:
I cover how to answer competency questions, strength-based questions, and also the ‘Why’ questions such as ‘why this firm’ etc. There are also additional tutorials on telephone and video interviews.
Lots to take in in this module, and by the end of it you will feel ready to rock and roll, with your STAR and STARS techniques, strength-based questions and the left-field questions like ‘how many marbles are there in a jam jar?’. No matter what they ask you, you will be ready for a perfect answer.
Module 6: Assessment Centres
The stage that strikes fear into many people…assessment centres. For this module, I’ve split it up into 6 video tutorials covering:
Phew, lots to take in in this stage – it’s your chance to shine and impress in person.
Depending on how you get on with the assessment centre will determine if you jump to Module 7 or 8 first.
Module 7: Offers
We cover the offers stage and what you need to do next to get ready to start your graduate job and how to juggle multiple offers. (Yes, I’m expecting you to get multiple offers!!) If it didn’t go to plan, then head to Module 8.
Module 8: Rejection
Rejection is a fact of life in applying for graduate jobs, so how you deal with it and learn from it is vitally important. We cover how to cope with rejection and more importantly how to move onwards and upwards!
