MYJOB CAREERS APP

Students are encouraged to download the MyJOB App onto their device or access the MyJOB website as a part of their career pathway plans.  

The App and website are a one stop shop to help students look for work. The website covers all the steps involved in finding work;

• What you need before you get a job
• How to find a job
• How to work out what skills you have
• How to write a resume, cover letter and key selection criteria
• Interviews

Rather than reading from front to back, students can access the information that works for them, when they need it. Students can access it any time they have their device handy.

Download the app (It's free!) and get started looking for a job!

Available on iOS and Android or from the website www.myjobinfo.com.au/
