According to a recent Gallup study, "Remote-capable workers who work hybrid and those who work on-site report similar levels of work-life balance and burnout [in the US]." Clearly, the issue remains a complex one. When we talk about graduates just entering the world of work, things can get even more complex as organisations work to provide social, coaching and mentoring support to young people who haven't got past experience to draw on. We'd love to hear your thoughts on the role of hybrid work in South Africa's graduate employment and development context.

Working with some of South Africa's leading employers in quantitative science means we can speak to pioneers in the field about their experiences and share their insights with students.

The shift towards using data more effectively to improve decision-making touches all areas of business. Early career strategy development shouldn't be the exception. We were honoured to have Khairunnisa Mohamedali, PhD speak at our Development Conference in 2022, and we love these latest learnings from The Smarty Train. Thank you, Institute of Student Employers, for sharing this! #datadrivendecisions #talentstrategy #talentdevelopment #earlycareerstrategy #graduateemployement #graduatedevelopment #southafrica #HR

Are we all on the same page when we talk about work experience for graduates in South Africa? Terms we often come across in this context are work experience, vacation employment, and, as one of our colleagues terms it “all the ships” i.e. internships, learnerships, traineeships and apprenticeships. What do we mean by these different types of programmes and can we agree on a common language around work experience?

Sharing knowledge between our international community of colleagues in graduate employment and our South African members is one of the ways we support best practice for developing young talent. Involving line management in developing graduates is just as important as gaining buy-in from your C-Suite, and best practice around the world. We loved this article from the Institute of Student Employers on how to do just that! https://lnkd.in/d4T7nmcG We'll also be talking about this topic at our upcoming SAGEA Development Conference in November. We'll examine how South African graduate employers are developing line managers to become talent-builder magnets.

Is Artificial Intelligence the next Superpower? How does ESG and Sustainability fit into Graduate Development? How do you develop Line Managers to become your talent-builder magnets?
