Career MasterClass
The Career Development Centre runs a number of 'Career MasterClass' workshops each semester. The workshops cover topics such as resumes and cover letters, job applications, psychometric testing and assessment centres, interviews, and networking.
If you work in human resources, recruitment, organisational psychology, or related areas, we welcome you to sharing your expertise with our students.
The benefits of speaking at the MasterClass include:
- Raising awareness of the career opportunities within your industry or organisation
- Meeting students with the potential to contribute to your organisation
- Assisting students to better prepare themselves to transition from study into the workplace
Workshops run for 50 minutes. We are happy to make available to you the presentation slides and handouts that we use, or you are most welcome to use your own resources. You are also free to include one or two slides in your presentation about any employment opportunities with your organisation.
