GradConnection's GradMaker

GradMaker is GradConnection's main online product. The first iteration, the Graduate Program Wizard, was launched in March 2009, with the goal of ranking graduate jobs to recent graduates and final year students. The Graduate Program Wizard had 20 companies on board and was a huge success, gaining a large amount of graduate traffic in April and May of 2009 and since has only improved to become the highest traffic ranked graduate employment site in Australia (alexa.com).
