Career and industry panels

Engage with the next generation of Arts and Social Sciences graduates and share emerging trends from your sector to inspire our students in their career readiness. Raise your organisation’s profile by fostering our students in their career learning and development.

Career-ready students: a mutually beneficial objective

  • Giving career advice to students provides you as a professional with the opportunity to expand your talent mentoring portfolio, as well as gaining access to a potential future workforce pool for your organisation.
  • Careers Panels are designed to increase students' career-readiness and professional confidence by learning from you as the professional expert about the latest hiring and recruitment practices and workplace trends in their field of study.
  • Students learn through career panels about different career pathways, jobs, networking opportunities and ideas as to where interns and graduates are currently in demand.
  • Our first-year students engage with career panels as a foundational Work Integrated Learning activity that helps them make informed decisions to direct their study plans and career pathways.   
  • Career panels are an essential component in the preparation of our Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences students for their internship experiences.
