    All 100 Finalists then participate in an actual assessment centre where you are assessed directly by employers. This takes place in February each year.

    Awards night

    After the Assessment Day, the dozens of employers that participate in the applicant assessments announce their results with students and universities taking top honours on the night.

    Australian Financial Review (AFR)

    All finalists, winners and universities are published in the AFR alongside the results for the Top100 graduate employers.
