2022 Graduate Recruitment

NDIA recruits a small intake of graduates each year, and coordinates graduate recruitment through the Australian Government Graduate Program in Generalist, HR, and Data Streams. Applying to any of these streams means that with just one application process, you may be considered for graduate roles in multiple Australian Government departments, agencies and Commonwealth entities. If you wish to be considered for a NDIA graduate role through one of these streams, you will need to apply via one of the below streams.

Generalist Stream

The Generalist Stream accepts graduates from a range of degree disciplines. These include public policy, arts, sciences, humanities, law, international relations, media, communications, design, accounting, finance, etc.

Being part of a Generalist Stream Graduate Program, you have the opportunity to work on contemporary policy, programs and services that make a real difference to the lives of Australians.

We are looking for people who are adaptable, positive, and willing to learn and innovate. The Australian Government offers challenges in a flexible and fast-paced environment and seeks people who are keen to serve the public interest.
