New online career resource for students13 August 2008
Monash University's Employment and Career Development unit has launched Career Gateway, a new online employment and career information resource for students. The improved system means students and graduates now have access to an online resume builder and events calendar. Students are invited to visit Employment and Career Development staff during on-campus launches across Monash campuses in Victoria and Malaysia. Students who register Career Gateway on-the-spot will receive a merchandise gift. Team Leader with Employment and Career Development Ms Glen Wilson said by registering with Career Gateway students could access additional employment and career development resources to help them stand out as a candidate. "Employers look for applicants who have a degree, job hunting skills, and work and life experience so it's never too early for students to start planning their career," Ms Wilson said. On Career Gateway students can search for internships and part-time and full-time vacancies. Graduate positions, both degree-related and general are also available. Employment and Career Development also provides career resources, events and seminars where students can connect with future employers. "Our seminars are a great opportunity for students to understand employers' expectations during the application and recruitment process. The workshops encourage students to practise their interview skills," Ms Wilson said.
