Who we are looking for

We want graduates that show accountability, professionalism and teamwork and who have sharp analytical minds. If you're a motivated high achiever with a genuine interest in the vital work ASIC does, then you're the kind of graduate we're looking for. You'll need to have a relevant undergraduate degree from 2018, 2019 or 2020.

To ensure ASIC is a more pre-emptive and pro-active regulator, we are using data analytics to help us achieve our vision. It is vital that our graduates have the attributes required to analyse trends and summarise raw data and information. Your understanding of the significance of data analytics to financial regulation will be a key element to your success.

Meet Kelly, a 2018 ASIC Graduate, Law & Arts and Social sciences graduate

“The best part of the ASIC Graduate Program was the variety of the work I got to do. I got to work on a number of high-profile projects, meet with CEOs and board members, liaise with other regulatory and law enforcement agencies, and collaborate with other government departments and industry. I was fully supported by my managers and team members in all aspects of my work and development as a graduate. This included the opportunity to attend various training courses and conferences. I’ve also made close friendships with my graduate cohort, which has endured years after finishing our graduate program.”
