Application: When you apply, we will ask you to provide a copy of your CV and cover letter. Your cover letter should include details about why you are applying for the Audit New Zealand Graduate Programme. Highlight any skills or experience that make you a great candidate, and make sure your name is part of the filename of any documents you attach.
Online assessments: We will send you a link to our online assessments and video introduction. It’ll take about 35 minutes to complete the assessments, so please schedule the time and remove yourself from distractions. 
Closing date: You will have three days to complete the assessment and the video introduction. Please don’t leave it until the last hour!
Phone Interview: If you’re short-listed for a job, we'll call you and ask you some general questions so we can get to know you better (nothing scary). This phone call is booked in advance, at a time that suits you.
Case study and final interview: If the phone interview goes well, we’ll invite you to attend a final interview and complete a case study. We’ll give you plenty of information to help you prepare, but our best advice is ‘Just be you’! 
Decisions: We’ll offer graduate positions to successful applicants by the end of May. We can’t wait to make these phone calls!Watch this video to learn tips about creating an application that will make you stand out. (Transcript for this video.)

Supporting you and your career
The Graduate Programme begins with a four-day induction at our Wellington office, where you’ll have:
- in-depth training from our specialists and technical experts;
- the tools you need to do your job, including a laptop and mobile phone; and
- opportunities to make friends with other people in your year group. This support structure will be invaluable in the following years as you study, work, and find solutions together.
This is just the beginning. Your goals are important to us and we can’t wait to see your learning and development!
