Gradcast is a podcast by APS graduates, for APS graduates.
In our monthly episodes, we will talk about the life of an Australian Public Service (APS) Graduate. From tips and tricks to start your career in the APS to relatable stories like ‘what should you NOT wear for Friday casuals?’.
Produced by contentgroup and sponsored by Commonwealth Superannuation Corporation (CSC), Gradcast follows a ‘magazine’ style format with shorter conversational segments. We will feature guests from the APS and outside who will provide you with practical tips for your career growth and share their mistakes, so you don’t have to repeat them.
Are you looking to join the APS? or are you a current APS graduate? This podcast is just for you.

What qualities are employers in the APS seeking in graduates and junior staff? What skills can we expect to be in high demand in the next 5 years? What is the APS reform agenda? How might artificial intelligence (A.I.) impact the way we work in the APS?
On the 10th of October 2023, Gradcast hosted its first live podcast event, where we invited current and aspiring Australian Public Service graduates and junior staff to experience the recording firsthand and participate in a live Q&A session. The live podcast featured a special guest, Kristin Boag, Director of Leadership and Graduate Development, APS Academy, APS Commission.
This is Part 1 of our host, Callum Irving’s, conversation with Kristin, where they discussed her journey from being an APS graduate to her current position at the APS Academy, and delved into key topics concerning the future of the APS. These topics include in-demand skills, the APS reform agenda, and the role of artificial intelligence (AI).
Tune in to also hear a Q&A segment where our event attendees posed their questions to Kristin about what's ahead for the future of the APS.
