Our Graduate Development Program
Jacobs
Jacobs’ Australia and New Zealand Graduate Program runs for up to two years and is designed to equip graduates to become exceptional consultants. Graduates will learn about our organisation, business operations, project management and teamwork, at the same time as developing their business and consulting skills. The Program is designed to develop a core set of professional competencies in graduates of all disciplines through varied work-based experience and on-the-job learning which is linked to, and supported by, a process of accreditation and recognition for professional achievement.
All graduates, irrespective of discipline, are expected to attain their relevant professional accreditation through the Program either through an existing industry accreditation body or through an equivalent internal company process.
Accreditation marks the successful completion of the Program by a graduate and formally recognises that the graduate has acquired and demonstrated, through practical application in their work, the core competencies which comprise the Program.
Program Purpose
- Recruit, develop and retain graduates
- Expose graduates to a broad range of work experience
- Actively support graduates to achieve professional accreditation
- Provide a structured professional development environment for graduates to develop their core skills
- A two-year program to assist graduates in attaining a core set of professional capabilities, flexibility and a sound understanding of the business
Our Internship Program
Jacobs
The Jacobs Internship Program offers students the opportunity to work with us for 12 weeks during the Christmas period break. This is a great opportunity to get some real world experience that will help you make an informed decision about the direction of your post-university career.
Many of our consultants go on to become Jacobs Graduates and enjoy a long and successful career with us.
Applications for the Internship Program will open in late July with the program commencing in November on completion of the University Examination period.

Our Graduates
Jacobs
At Jacobs our Engineers & Scientists are highly sought after for their specialist knowledge and experience in a specific discipline or technology, which allows them to build upon a deep understanding of what is possible and push the boundaries in search of ever more innovative solutions for clients. As a Graduate at Jacobs you will gain exposure to a range of disciplines, but your career will see you develop into a specialist in a field/discipline so be prepared to talk about your area of real passion during this process.
Jacobs Graduates get to work on large complex projects so they are technically inquisitive, they like to work in teams and learn to see things from another perspective, they will ask questions and challenge the norm and expect their input to be taken seriously, they communicate exceptionally well, and they are the future of Jacobs.
