Preparation

To gain the most value from the Careers Expo, students should prepare beforehand and have an idea of the information they will need to investigate as part of their plan for the next few years.

The Expo allows students to access a wide range of information including the studies offered at OACC, courses and programs available at tertiary institutions and training providers, as well as information from people working within represented careers.

Before the Expo

Prepare a list of people you want to see and questions to ask.

At the Expo:

Ensure you speak to the relevant people
Come with your list of questions you want answered
Check out the Overnewton faculty displays to understand your subject choices
Collect two or three brochures that will have information that you may need later. Too many brochures can be confusing, and our Careers Centre will also have copies of most 2025 Course Guides
Collect business cards from the people you talk to so you can contact them later if you need to
Questions may include:

What subjects do I need to study at school?

What qualifications are required for this career?

What is the best thing about this job?

What are the job prospects like?

What other related occupations are in this field?

After the Expo:

Review the information you gained at the Expo to help you with your career planning and decision making for the next few years.
Identify any information that you were unable to access at the Expo and research using the resources available at www.overnewtoncareers.com
Identify any Tertiary Open Days that you should attend or other careers events. All Victorian Open Day dates are listed here
