In 2017 we developed and commenced our inaugural Engineering Graduate Program based in Brisbane. We had 8 x 2 year fixed term contract opportunities that provided graduates with the experience and exposure to many programs and projects on a rotational basis. Work areas included Mechanical & Structural, Propulsion, System/Software, Aircraft Structural Integrity, System Safety, Avionics & Electrical and Reliability and Maintainability (RAM). Our next intake for this Graduate Program will commence in January 2019 with the recruitment process kicking off from March 2018.
If you are successful in obtaining a position within one of our graduate programs, you can expect many exciting but challenging opportunities. Some of our graduate outcomes include:

Once you have been accepted into the Airbus Graduate Program we expect you to bring your commitment, passion and desire to learn into every opportunity that is presented. One of the main aims of the graduate program is to provide you with exposure to the many different engineering aspects of our business. This can include but are not limited to in-service engineering, design, planning and other interrelated functions. Our graduates commit to completing 3 to 4 internal rotations over the 2-year program allowing you to build corporate and industry knowledge and develop your business networks early within your career. It is an expectation that you will commit to the program for a minimum of 18 months before pursuing options to transition into a full-time opportunity within your chosen engineering discipline with us. Each rotation will take place under the direct supervision of experienced and specialised professional engineers who will help guide and mentor you through the learning process.
If you are applying for one of our Graduate or Work Experience Programs our processes are generally standardised to handle the volume of applications received for each intake. You can anticipate experiencing a similar process for each of these opportunities. Firstly you will need to apply with an online application through our careers website and answer a questionnaire about your studies, experience and areas of interest. From here you will be invited to complete a short video interview followed by an invitation to attend an assessment centre. These assessment centres take place on confirmed days and times and unfortunately cannot be changed to accommodate individuals. After the assessment centre, we will commence our pre-employment checks. These will include but are not limited to reference checks, work right checks and qualification checks. From here it would be over to a formal offer and then onboarding processes would commence.
