What’s Happening in Careers?
Year 10
This week in our MyPath class, the Year 10 students practised their interview skills to boost their confidence for future job interviews, whether for casual positions or full-time roles. We discussed the importance of presenting oneself in a positive manner and how to effectively answer the question, "Tell me about yourself." Students also had the chance to provide constructive feedback to their classmates. All notes for MyPath can be found on SEQTA.
Year 11
This week, the Year 11s explored qualifications and certificates they could complete to build their resumes and work prospects. Time was also allocated for them to complete the WorkSafe SmartMoves certificate. This certificate is completed online and helps students learn about potential hazards in the workplace. All students completing work experience should complete this certificate.
Year 12
It has been nice to see some of the ATAR boys around as they prepare for their exams. This is the final stretch for them so it’s important that they keep their eye on the prize. If they are struggling with decisions about courses or applications to university they are always welcome to drop in and speak to myself or Mrs Paduano. We would also love to know about the offers that the boys receive over the next few months.

University Events
As we move into Term 4 and ATAR exams, there are fewer information sessions being held by the universities. The focus is now on how to accept a university offer, how to enrol in my preferred course or how to get university accommodation.
