Do you have questions about the APS Graduate Programs? Are you wondering how to pick the right Graduate Program for you? What skills are currently in demand in the APS? How do you make the most of your rotations? We have more answers to questions we received from our listeners over the past few months.
In this episode, we continue our conversation with the expert of APS Graduate Programs – Craig Smith, Assistant Director – Career Pathways at Australian Public Service Commission. Craig shares his own career story from coming out of university and reminds us that Graduate Programs are not the only way into the APS.
