Career Development
Are university students aware of their career development needs?
Perhaps not!
Too few on-campus students know much about the graduate opportunities which become available up to 10 months before the end of their final year of study. Students can often be unprepared with regard to the who, when and how of graduate recruitment.
How many undergraduates do not have relevant work experience included in their résumés, or know that many large Australian companies provide "vacationer" programs, paid work experience, only available to students in the second and/or penultimate year of study?
Are DE students, those transitioning to new career paths, aware of career development activities, eg., informational networking?
And, for students lucky enough to be studying courses with a high professional or clinical experience content, do they possess effective job search strategies?
These topics and more are discussed and highlighted on or via this website.
