  • Along the way, you'll get a broad look at the many career pathways available at GHD—because no future should come with split ends
  • You'll have the chance to work in design teams to help deliver exciting projects, contribute to bids and tenders, and even get hands-on with occasional site work.
  • In your first year, we'll focus on the fundamentals of consulting to help you find your rhythm in the industry.
  • By year two, you'll have the flexibility to style your development, whether that's diving deeper into your technical development or soaking up wisdom from your mentors.

A frizz-free application process:
We want your journey to be as smooth as possible, so here's everything you need to help you prep like a pro:

  • A cover letter: Think of this as your chance to show us where you'd love to grow within GHD, while letting your communication skills shine.
  • Your transcript: This helps us understand what you've been learning, from your core subjects to the electives that sparked your curiosity.

Your journey to joining GHD:

  • Screening: We review applications as they come in, but be mindful that the bulk of our screening happens after applications close, so don't worry if you don't hear from us right away.
  • Video interviews: If you make it through the first stage, you'll record some answers to a few straightforward questions. This helps us get a sense of your communication style and what excites you about GHD.
  • Meet the team: Next, you'll have a face-to-face or virtual interview with your prospective team. We'll chat through some behavioural based questions to learn more about your skills and experience. It's also a chance for you to get to know us
  • Psychometric assessments: These quick tests give us a glimpse into how you like to work and your strengths in relation to the role, complementing what we learn during your interview.
  • Offer: Congratulations If you're successful, we'll talk through all the finer details, like salary, your start date, and our background checking process.

We're committed to being as inclusive as possible and giving everyone an equitable chance of getting through our application process.

and need adjustments to any part of the process, let us know in your application form—we're here to help.
