Since then, application numbers have risen steadily.<\/p>\n<p>The Microlise graduate programme runs for a year, with the intention of preparing candidates for entry-level software developer roles, allowing them to move across teams, to understand Microlise career advancement opportunities, and the various developer roles available within the business.<\/p>\n<p>Our 2020 round of University visits will commence in October 2019, so look out for us at Nottingham Trent and Nottingham University very soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our Graduate recruitment programme prepares candidates for life in a solution-focused and fast-paced work environment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":8,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[3],"class_list":["post-6","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-graduate-opportunities","tag-careers","entry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.7.1 (Yoast SEO v27.3) -
