Careers News

It has been a busy week in the Careers Centre. Firstly, we are very grateful to Zoe and Sophie, both Human Resource professionals from Cox Purtell who gave up their valuable time to work with Year 12 students. They were able to provide insights into the world of recruitment and give tips and tricks when designing resumes and LinkedIn profiles and going for interviews. Students also had the opportunity to have their resumes reviewed. It is great to see Year 12 almost ready for the real world.

Also this week, Year 10 students enjoyed a Morrisby Profiling workshop where Educational Psychologist Emma Goodsir gave a detailed overview of how to interpret results and maximise the huge amount of interactive resources available.

During the Year Meeting on Thursday, Year 12 was taken through the tertiary application process, early entry applications and other entry schemes.

Finally, on Friday, we welcomed University of Tasmania, who presented the wonderful opportunities available. The Australian Maritime College, which is located at the university, has a global reputation in the maritime, defence, marine, renewable energy, and offshore sectors. Other areas of study include Business, Law, STEM, Education and much more. University of Tasmania also offers fast-track courses in Sydney in Paramedicine and Nursing.

The latest Careers News has been distributed and is available on Lampada/Careers.
