The ACE scheme was developed to simplify the application process for new graduates wanting to apply for their first positions within the New Zealand. It simplifies the recruitment process for graduates by using a centralised match process which simultaneously considers the applicants work place (District) preference as well as the District's preference of applicants.
It is beneficial for applicants as they only need to apply once to ACE for any position within the Districts and are placed only into positions with Districts that they have expressed their interest in joining.
It is beneficial for the Districts as they see applications only from those graduates who have expressed interest in joining them.
After matching each applicant's preferences against each District's preference of employees, because the ACE system ensures that each successful applicant receives only 1 offer of employment, as each position in each District is filled, these applicants are removed from the list of available candidates, opening up positions for other applicants, simultaneously in all Districts across the country.
Currently we have 2 graduate programmes running - check out the below information.
