If group wide recruitment prioritises academy graduates then non academy trainees will be seriously disadvantaged.
As there hasn’t been much recruitment in the last two years we really can’t make a judgement yet, this will change over the next year or two so some judgement can be made when we see if/how academy graduates are employed.
Those who were on the first courses at the academy could possibly be in a very strong position career wise, we shall wait and see if their decision pays off
