University of Tasmania, Australia

By coming to university you have already commenced the process of career planning and thinking about where you want to head into the future.  Some of you are very sure about the course you are undertaking and what the employment outcomes will be.

But for some of you, the pathway may not be so clear.  You may start a course only to find it’s not what you were looking for, or you might be unsure about what options are available to you after graduating.  If you find yourself asking these vexing questions, it can often help to discuss your concerns with a qualified Careers Adviser. Appointments can be made for a face-to-face or phone consultation by contacting Careers Service.

There are also many activities that will enhance your career outcomes:

• Investigate career options for your degree
• Attend on-campus employer sessions and Careers Week activities
• Get connected – join new activities, volunteer for on-campus activities or community organisations
• Get some part-time/casual work
• Use Careers Service resources such as our on-line Fact Sheets and other web based resources
• Update your resume using Resume Link which can be found on our website.

Remember, the earlier you start preparing, the better your outcomes!
