FAQs
What industries do you support with graduate recruitment?
Chandler Macleod supports graduate recruitment across government and public sector (including APS, AFP, and state agencies), professional services, finance, infrastructure, technology, and ICT. We have delivered high-volume graduate programs for federal agencies, large corporates, and regulated industries, tailoring each program's assessment design and employer branding to the sector's candidate market.
Can I outsource just part of my graduate recruitment program?
Yes. Our engagement models are flexible: from full RPO delivery (where we manage the entire program end-to-end) to modular support for specific components like psychometric testing, virtual assessment centres, video interviews, or onboarding. Many clients start with assessment-only support and expand to full outsourcing as the relationship matures.
What types of assessments do you provide?
Through our Assessment Gateway platform, Chandler Macleod offers psychometric tests (cognitive ability, personality, and behavioural assessments), skills and situational judgement tests, AI-powered automated video interviews, and gamified assessments. All tools are customisable to your graduate competency framework and can be delivered at scale without compromising candidate experience.
Do you offer support with employer branding for graduate campaigns?
Yes. Chandler Macleod helps design and deliver fully branded graduate campaigns, including EVP development, candidate communications, job board content, and branded assessment experiences. We are a proud partner of the AFR Top100 Graduate Employers Awards, which gives our clients elevated visibility with early talent across Australia.
How do you ensure a strong candidate experience at scale?
We design programs with candidate experience as a core requirement, not an afterthought. This includes clear communication at every stage, mobile-optimised assessment tools, timely feedback, and human touchpoints at critical decision moments. Our 2025 AAGE AGRIA finalist status for Outstanding Industry Partner reflects our track record of delivering high-quality experiences for both employers and candidates.
Can you help us run a campus recruitment campaign?
Yes. Chandler Macleod maintains strong relationships with universities across Australia and can coordinate campus job board postings, on-campus events, presentations, and brand activations on your behalf.
