What our previous graduates have to say about starting their careers at Third Horizon:

While I had some corporate work experience prior to starting at Third Horizon, achieving a graduate position felt like I was in the starting blocks for my career. At Third Horizon you are guaranteed to be allocated work that you have not been exposed to before. Although this may be unsettling, embrace different challenges and know that these unfamiliar tasks are merely opportunities to learn – who knows when this knowledge may be leveraged throughout your career.

Thomas BerginConsultant

Starting as a Grad at Third Horizon was a great way to start my career. From the get-go I had opportunities to interact directly with business leaders, was given responsibilities on projects and had access to an internal support network, including mentorship from Third Horizon Directors. The jobs I have been involved in have been diverse and have required me to constantly take my skills up to the next level, ultimately resulting in a quick career progression. The highlight of my experience has been working with a group of highly motivated, intelligent and fun colleagues who are constantly proud to develop quality outcomes for our clients.

I think the best days for me are when I’m able to put an idea forward and see it become part of the final solution or document we are preparing. It’s a testament to the great opportunity for the junior staff here to seize ownership of tasks and deliver outcomes for the team.

Our recruitment process

It is just as important that you are comfortable with us we are with you and as such we have quite a robust and extensive recruitment process. Recruitment for our 2019 graduate intake has been completed. Our next intake will be in February 2020 and we are not taking applications yet.

Application

Send your cover letter and resume to us. Our graduate recruitment round for 2019 has ended. We’ll update details for the 2020 round.

Initial Interview

The Initial interview will be with a Manager and one of this year’s Graduates.  The purpose of this discussion is for you to learn about Third Horizon – who we are, the types of projects that we do, our vision and what we can offer you.  It is also an opportunity for us to get to know you –  tell us about yourself, your aspirations and what you would like from a career at Third Horizon.

Case Study

The second discussion takes the form of a case study where you are given a problem and asked to solve it.  Here we look for analytical capability, ability to structure an approach and responding succinctly.

Written Exercise

We then give you a written exercise which looks at your PowerPoint, Excel and letter writing ability. We don’t expect advanced skills but look for the basics covered.

Discussion with a Director

The final discussion is with one of our Directors, which will give you the opportunity to get another perspective from someone in our company and you can ask any unanswered questions.
