Course Overview
People decide what graduate mass recruitment really means by watching who gets promoted. A process for this aspect of people management and development that managers quietly work around has already failed. It concentrates on the parts of the people management and development discipline that determine outcomes and treats the rest proportionately. It is pitched for practitioners with responsibility for graduate mass recruitment, not for observers of it. Plans for this strand of people management and development often fail at the handover point between functions. They gain the ability to sequence improvements to the people management and development capability in an order their organisation can absorb. Every module pairs a short input on graduate mass recruitment with structured practice on the participant's own material. Comparative studies of this area of people management and development across sectors find the same handful of failure points recurring. It closes by agreeing the smallest change to this part of people management and development that would make a visible difference.
