WOW. We cannot believe a month has already gone by. As we mentioned last post – we have been looking for more representation from female entrepreneurs and business leaders and we are extremely excited to announce that we have managed to add several new female executives to the line up including a CEO of a very exciting biotech start-up. Look forward to it!
Additionally, we have been gifted with an incredible opportunity to do a Content Share with Harvard Business School where our article will be posted as part of their blog! Joanna and I are both incredibly humbled and excited for this opportunity and cannot wait to share our upcoming article, “Equipping yourself for success” with all of you over the next fortnight. We believe Graduate Insider will be to Graduates what Facebook is to Social Media and are extremely excited as we move forward on this journey.
As always, if you have any ideas on further topics you wish for us to follow up on – please do send this through to [email protected]

Until next time!

WHEW. It has been an extremely intense month for us over at Graduate Insider with a frenzy of activities kicking off! From prepping our website launch, negotiating and finalizing our list of speakers for the year, building out our mentor hub, e-news…the list goes on!
If you’re interested in signing up or contributing to our mentor hub, please send emails through to [email protected]. We are particularly passionate about promoting diversity and have been looking for more female representation – if you know anyone passionate about graduates or is a star professional – please let us know.
We’re extremely excited to announce the addition of 2 very high-demand speakers;
1) A leading big-four consulting executive with 25+ years’ experience spanning over all aspects of the energy industry – we’re particularly keen to hear her tips for upcoming graduates, especially regarding encouragement towards STEM for women
2) A leading industry partner from MBB with deep cross-functional expertise across the utilities industry – We’ve continued to receive requests from graduates curious about MBB, so we’re very excited to provide this update!
As always – if there’s a company you want to hear from send through your requests and we’ll add them to our list!
