We have companies across Auckland and Wellington representing over 40% of the entire New Zealand media market. Our expertise spans brand advertising, CRM/direct, media, digital, public relations, experiential, shopper marketing, promotional marketing, brand consultancy, and retail advertising.
Our people are our competitive difference and we are constantly on the lookout for smart, savvy and curious individuals. That’s why we launched the Clemenger Group Graduate Programme back in 2010.
This is a nine month programme which runs from January to October, each year. We take online applications via our website from 1 July - 31 August, 2016.
The applications will be reviewed by a panel of agency executives who will choose a shortlist of 30 graduates. If shortlisted, you will be invited to attend an assessment centre in Auckland, in late September / early October latest. The assessment centre involves challenges and individual interviews. You are required to make your own way to Auckland and organise your own accommodation for the assessment centre.
If you’re offered a place on the programme, you will spend the first 12 weeks rotating through different agencies and departments to gain an understanding of the different aspects of the advertising industry.
This rotation period is a unique opportunity and sets our programme apart from others. At the end of these three months, you will be better able to assess if this is indeed the industry for you.
If it is, you’ll get a six-month placement with your employing agency in an area where you can excel. You’ll be on a fixed term employment agreement and paid an entry-level salary during the nine-months of the programme. There is no guarantee of a permanent job, but at the end of the programme we hope you are confirmed in your dream role!
