About this event

School and university are very different to workplaces. This event will run through the whole job process, including finding, applying, interviewing and then keeping your job. You will see a live demonstration of how to fix your resume, the exact words to use in an interview and some meditation techniques to calm your job stress.

  • Resume writing skills
  • How to ace a performance review once you have secured a job
