Most organisations will be placing young graduates on development / internship programmes in their organisations at the beginning of this year. These development programmes requires huge financial investments which must provide a significant return on expectations i.e. feeding the talent pipeline. These young employees are putting personal fulfilment ahead of company needs.

Against the backdrop of the current economic conditions and in the context of limitations on job mobility, young employees are pressured to look for greater meaning in their work and ways to be more resourceful. Employee engagement is critical, as engaged employees perform better and are more likely to prolong retention within an organisation.

So I want to ask you people, according to you, in what way can we engage young fresh graduates in an organisation?

Monitor progress of the graduate

idea posted by Renne Sharma HR Analyst, ABC Consulting

The progress of these young graduates should be monitored and regular feedback should be provided to them. Regular career conversations should be conducted with graduate recruits to establish aspirations and possible career paths. This will help the graduates to know their speed of development and where they need to work on.

1) THE FRESHER SHOULD BE BRIEFED ABOUT THE ACTIVITIES OF THE COMPANY AND WHAT IT STANDS FOR AND WHAT ARE ITS BUSINESS PLANS

2) THE FRESHER SHOULD ALSO BE TOLD ABOUT WHERE HE/SHE FITS IN THE SCHEME OF THINGS A ND THE EXECTATIONS OF THE COMPANY VIS-A-VIS HIS ROLE .

3) IT IS NECESSARY TO INVOLVE THE FRESHER IN THOSE ACTIVITIES OF THE COMPANY WHERE THEY CAN CONTRIBUTE. THE PERFORMANCE VIS-A-VIS EXPECTATIONS SHOULD BE CLOSELY MONITORED IN THE INITIAL STAGES AND CORRECTIVE MEASURES TAKEN. HANDLING THE CUSTOMERS IN FRONT OFFICE SHOULD BE ONE OF THE ACTIVITES OF THE NEW ENTRANT

4) EXTRAORDINARY CONTRIBUTIONS SHOULD BE RECONGISED REWARDED AND PUBLICISED;

Assign both mentor and coach to each graduate

idea posted by Nikhil Jain Senior Consultant, Hewitt Associates

Both mentor and coach should be assigned to each graduate or group of graduate recruits where the coach needs is responsible for functional (job) development aspect and executive mentor for personal and organisational aspects of their careers. In this way, the graduate will be learning while working under responsible seniors.

Develop a meaningful, structured development programme.

idea posted by Diya Mehra Executive search, ABC consulting

A meaningful, structured development programme should be developed which can challenge these graduate recruits at emotional, intellectual and physical levels. By doing this, these graduates will give their full concentration in the work and not only that, they will be prepared for all types of challenges in the job field.
