Graduate 
program

Applications for the 2028 Australian Government Graduate Programs will open in March 2027.

The Australian Government Graduate Programs offer graduates job opportunities across multiple disciplines. Applying to one of these streams means you only have to go through the application and selection process once to be considered for a range of Australian Government agencies and departments. 

We intend to participate in the Generalist Stream and Indigenous Graduate Pathway to recruit graduates for our 2028 cohort. 

More information about our program can be found on APSJobs
