Luxottica has recruited 85 new optometry graduates in Australia and New Zealand to its OPSM and Laubman & Pank stores, welcoming them aboard with a two day ‘Eyelaunch’ excursion, including lectures, workshops and a Sydney harbour cruise.
Peter Murphy, OPSM director of eyecare, said the company recruited for specific vacancies this year and he was very happy with the calibre and number of new graduates.
Providing an opportunity to let their hair down at the end of the introductory programme’s first day, the cruise was Ray-Ban-themed, encouraging the new optometrists to dress as film characters. “With the likes of James Dean and Audrey Hepburn on board, it was guaranteed to be great fun right from the start,” said Murphy.
