Graduates


TL;DR

“Sprint it - and see results within days.”

Graduate hiring is brutally uneven. A small number of candidates get the majority of interviews - not because they're more qualified, but because their story is sharper and their profile is visible to the right people.

We work with graduates targeting competitive employers. Once your story is right, the market moves fast. The London Sprint is built for this: five days, people at the same stage, and coaches who know exactly what the best employers are looking for.


  • From campus to shortlisted. In one week.

  • These are the 10 things you won’t hear from career services:

    #1 Finesse your AI stack

    Everyone uses ChatGPT. "I use AI" is not a skill. You’ll get noticed once you build functional workflows and use cases, applicable to the job you want. Perplexity, Claude, Notion, Paper. Know what you'll use and why.

    #2 Be humble

    You have less experience than everyone else in the room, your only strength is your capacity to grow. Own it and show your real self: how you grew up, what you navigated, what makes you weird (avoid TMI). Interviewers live for stories.

    #3 Put skin in the game

    Show dedication and bring a point of view. Do the work nobody asked you to do: a short deck, market research, AI fixes that need doing, something that proves you thought about the business. It will get noticed.

    #4 STOP using AI for job applications

    Everyone sees through it: AI applications are the new spam. Write like a human, do your research, be specific, use our you/me/us method. Flatter and converse. Cover letters used to be hand written for a reason.

    #5 Look elsewhere

    Everyone wants to work for a shiny startup or in a fancy industry. The money and growth are in new sectors you know nothing about: GenAI, planetary health, cybersecurity, society as a service, defense, longevity.

    #6 Look abroad

    Luckily, some countries are better than others at creating graduate jobs, often with immense growth opportunities. If you have any flexibility, just do it - before a mortgage or aging parents make it harder.

    #7 Learn to network

    Not LinkedIn spam or asking strangers for a job: conversing, being curious, and staying in touch without an agenda. Find people doing work you find intriguing and suggest a coffee chat. Do that every week.

    #8 Lean into communities

    This is your superpower. Find the Discord, meetup, or substack comments section where your tribe lives. Contribute something. Just help someone. Communities are where jobs and introductions circulate.

    #9 Say yes to growth

    Do things that scare you, pick projects nobody else volunteered for. Join that AI bootcamp. Talk to people 10 years ahead of you. Optimize for your learning curve, not for vibes. Don’t be the smartest in the room.

    #10 Learn to handle rejection

    Stop chasing perfection. A no is never personal: companies are distracted, under-resourced, and choosing between great candidates. Move on, say thank you, stay in touch, learn from it, and keep applying.
