WHAT OUR MEMBERS SAY
WHAT INDUSTRY PROFESSIONALS
THINK OF SPORTSGRAD
Play-By-Play Monthly Webinars
I’ve spent 8 years finding ways to develop my professional value and figuring out how to express it so others could understand my worth.
After using these skills to carve my own career in sport, I began teaching others how to do it. It was then that I understood what the sports industry is looking for and how to meet it - so I created a system.
The SportsGrad Method identifies the key elements of what it takes to get a job in sport.
Each part of the framework presents an opportunity to upskill and increase your chance of employment.
Every month, I walk you through the strategies and tactics to grow your employability and articulate your worth.
“Having it presented in such a clear and concise manner, with simple processes and lists, makes it easy to pick up and use immediately. It not only demonstrates what you should be doing, but also a valuable opportunity to learn and reflect on what not to do.”
Joel Baldock (Student)
The SportsGrad Vault
An evolving playbook of content, tools, and techniques that are being implemented by our members to land jobs in sport.
Actionable lessons on building and expressing your professional value:
Leveraging the ‘Hidden Job Market’
Selling Yourself in Interviews
Eye Catching Resumes
Creating Outstanding Work Experience
“SportsGrad Members helped me to refine my resume and gave me confidence for interviews. The discounted ticket for the Sports Tech World Series Conference also helped open up a conversation within my network which then led me to being offered this role.”
Bianca Litchfield (Performance Coordinator at Collingwood Magpies Super Netball)
The SportsGrad Community
An active group for interacting with people that are working on their careers, learning new skills, and putting themselves out there everyday.
A few favourite channels: grassroots ideas, interview questions, job opportunities
“I found just being part of the SportsGrad Members community helped me find that extra confidence to go out and pursue opportunities that I might not have otherwise even considered”
Lachlan Crofts (Analytics Intern at Baseball Australia)
My Resume
A link for download and guidance for use.
Access a template of the resume I’ve used to secure jobs at Cricket Australia, ICC T20 World Cup, Hawthorn Football Club & Australian University Sport.
“It helped me a lot to fine tune my resume and focus on the little things that matter that most people ignore.”
Devin Ediriweera (Student Services Officer at La Trobe University)
Job Description Dissection Training & Template
The key to winning an interview is to show that you fill a need of the organisation. To do this successfully you must produce a highly tailored resume & cover letter.
This is a tool I developed to dissect job descriptions that allows you to be 100% certain on which way to shape your application.
“The SportsGrad Members exclusive resources and webinars helped me dissect the job description and put together a cover letter and resume that was specific to the role I applied for. I love how easy it is to go back and review webinars, resources and templates.
Being a SportsGrad Member also helped me prepare for my Interview, Reuben gave me some great tips on how to best prepare for my online interview.”
Lachlan Crofts (Analytics Intern at Baseball Australia)

ABOUT YOUR PRESENTER
I’m Reuben, the Founder here at SportsGrad.
A big part of what I do is teach practical methods that help people build and express their professional value.
Having found a ‘Covid-job’ through my LinkedIn networks after being made redundant from Cricket Australia, I believe everyone can access the 80% of jobs that aren’t advertised.
That’s why I want to help students make it a reality, all with zero fluff, and based entirely on proven strategies that allowed myself to step into my dream job on the Monday after my final exam, and land an unadvertised role in the middle of a pandemic.
I started SportsGrad in my final year of study as the dedicated resource to careers in sport I wish I had when I started uni.
I was spending so much time cold messaging people on LinkedIn to pick their brains over coffee, but found that I was very much alone in doing this. Over time, I found that pretty much every student was looking for the same sort of insight I was getting first hand from people inside the likes of the AFL, Cricket Australia, the Big Bash League, Hawthorn Football Club, Melbourne Football Club, FIBA and the International University Sports Federation.
Eventually I decided that this was information every student needs to hear.
So I packed up my Mum’s digital camera with my Dad’s first tripod he took travelling in 1990 (unbelievable they worked together), and headed over to the US to start capturing the insights of sport management professionals.
Fast forward to today, and…
SportsGrad has helped hundreds of students chase their dream of entering the sport industry by sharing insights from the largest sporting organisations in the world by talking with professionals in 5 different continents.
HOW DID THE SPORTSGRAD MEMBERSHIP
HELP YOU GET YOUR JOB?
“The platform provided me with a fantastic opportunity to get more 1-on-1 advice from Reuben. I was able to have open and honest conversations about my career which ultimately led to a recommendation to the Box Hill Hawks from Reuben. The webinars are a fantastic resource as well. I have adopted the resume and cover letter templates into this application, providing me with more confidence in applying for jobs and the knowledge that I am covering all relevant basis when breaking down a job description. I look forward to learning more from the members platform which will only enhance my skills further and assist in securing more jobs and improved performance in the future.”

“It made me aware about the right vehicles to reach the right platform. To do the right amount of hard work and smart work, the resume template really helped.”
- Mitali Sharma (Operations Coordinator at Sports Hosts)
“SportsGrad gave me the resources to understand what relevance my skills and attributes have to a specific area of sport and enabled me to learn how to best go about searching for the right roles and understand what a job description was really asking for. It also helped me develop my LinkedIn networking skills to connect with the right people who may take my career further in the future.”
- Charlie Clark-Jones (Consumer Operations Coordinator at Brisbane Bullets Basketball Club)
I was able to land a contract with Kayo immediately after the sessions I had with Reuben. Following, I also landed a few more interviews with top state sport organisations - again, thanks to a solid application letter which Reuben's involvement helped me put together.
- Shiv Ranjit, Digital Marketing Manager at SportsHosts
Now I have a better understanding of the area in the sports industry I want to work in and how I should prepare myself for it
