The Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand (CA ANZ) Achiever Program, in partnership with Readygrad, connects employers offering paid work experience with penultimate and final year students pursuing careers in accounting.

What is the Achiever Program?

The Achiever Program is an opportunity for employers to build an early pipeline of graduate talent by connecting with potential candidates as interns before they complete their studies.

The program is run with Readygrad, a leader in graduate recruitment and intern management. With their expertise, the Achiever Program delivers a tailored process from application to placement, saving you time and resources.

If you don't have an established work experience program, no problem. The team at Chartered Accountants ANZ is on hand to provide support and guidance. We'll provide you with a comprehensive 'best practice' guide to establishing and running a work experience program.

Get ahead of the internship intake period with the Achiever Program by connecting with promising talent through our employer-student matching process, based on your specific criteria.
