In practice

How NTT DATA elevated its early-careers talent-pool experience.

NTT DATA cohort NTT DATA early talent
GradEngage didn’t just automate our keep-warm plan—they understood our employer brand and exactly how to engage an early careers audience. The result was a dynamic candidate experience that kept talent-pools engaged throughout their journey, significantly reducing the risk of drop-outs. More than a supplier, they became an extension of our team, taking the time to truly understand our business and ensuring every communication felt authentically ours.”

How GradEngage works.

Your employer brand’s content exists across websites, LinkedIn, job boards and social media. Our deep-learning AI continuously discovers, categorises and transforms that content into ready-to-send email template libraries — continuously refreshed and formatted for your ATS, with no integrations required.

How GradEngage works: company news, early-careers programs, careers site & EVP content, ATS/CRM specifications and employer-brand content flow through GradEngage AI into custom branded email template libraries and communication schedules.
Your template library

A whole library, branded to you.

30+ themed email templates, designed and built from your content — sites, socials and EVP — so every candidate touch-point is unmistakably yours.

Frequently asked questions.

General
Can I use GradEngage for interns?

Absolutely. In fact you can use GradEngage for any talent pool you want to keep engaged with your employer brand whilst they wait for their first day.

Can I use GradEngage if we’ve already made our offers?

You sure can! Whilst GradEngage is designed to cover a full 12-month communications plan, it doesn’t mean you have to use our templates in any particular order. No matter when you first start using GradEngage you can select any template that suits how far into your waiting period you are. If you’ve only got to make it through a few months you could even send retention emails weekly. You can even use GradEngage pre-offer!

What’s the difference between this and a CRM or onboarding platform?

GradEngage isn’t another platform to integrate or manage. CRMs and onboarding tools hold your data and run your workflows; GradEngage gives you the content layer that goes inside them — a complete library of branded, ready-to-send templates plus events and activities, formatted for the ATS, CRM or onboarding technology you already run. No integrations, no candidate data, no new system to learn.

Is this AI?

Yes — and it’s paired with real industry expertise. GradEngage’s deep-learning AI discovers and transforms your employer-brand content into your template libraries, while 20+ years of graduate recruitment and employer-branding experience shapes everything you send. AI does the heavy lifting; the experts make it feel authentically yours.

Do I need to provide any PII?

Your email address is quite literally the only information you’ll need to provide to get going with GradEngage. We don’t require any employee or candidate data whatsoever.

Do I need any other software?

GradEngage is designed to work with everything from your own email outbox to your preferred EDM service or CRM. Just copy and paste, it’s as simple as that.

What size cohort is this best for?

We’ve designed GradEngage for any size of cohort. Whether you intake 5 or 500 grads, we’ve got you covered. Some of our events lend themselves to smaller or larger cohorts, but fortunately we’ve categorised each one for you to search in our library.

Is this an app?

No — and there’s no software to download or integrate with either. GradEngage is hosted online and all you need is your login to get going.

Security
How secure is my data?

What data! GradEngage collects absolutely nothing other than login and billing details, which are secured in our chosen financial software partner, Xero.

Ordering
How long does it take to set up an account?

It’s almost instant! Once you complete your subscription purchase we’ll send you your login details and then you’re ready to go. Once logged in we recommend you watch our new-user content and then you’re all set.

How do I purchase GradEngage?

All you need to do is hit the Request a demo button (or email us) and let us know you’re good to go. We provide both credit card and invoicing options for payment.

What rate do you use to calculate currency conversions?

GradEngage is billed as an annual sum upon order confirmation. We calculate the conversion for members paying in currencies other than AUD using the xe.com rate on the day. For Australian customers, GST is added to the total.
