Career Coaching and Insights from a community legal centre CEO (for International students)

​This event will discuss successful tactics to approach careers in Australia and support your Critical Legal Thinking application for academic success

Learn from the best in the business

This Spring, you can learn from the best in the business, with Vasili Maroulis (CEO Marrickville Legal Centre) and Esita Sogotubu (UTS Careers). Their expertise will help you strengthen your job applications for either PLT opportunities or long-term career prospects. These two workshops are suitable for international law students, and inbound study abroad and exchange students.

Career Coaching, with Esita Sogotubu

The first session, with Esita Sogotubu from UTS Careers, will:

  • Show you how to identify your strengths and competencies to leverage your international experience.
  • Teach you to identify what employers' advertisements are asking you to do.
  • Show you how to discuss and distinguish yourself throughout the application process.

Important: Please bring 1 x job advertisement you’d like to use for practice in the first workshop.

Vasili Maroulis, CEO Marrickville Legal Centre – Exploring Legal Pathways: Insights from a Community Legal Centre CEO

The second workshop, with Vasili Maroulis, CEO Marrickville Legal Centre, is an opportunity to gain insights into the legal profession. Vasili will share his wisdom, experience and advice about working in one of Sydney's community legal centres. This will sharpen your understanding of what it takes to apply the law within the Australian legal system, and within the Sydney community. You'll have an opportunity for Q & A, where you can ask Vasili what it takes to become a solicitor in a community legal centre, and what a potential employer or PLT organisation is looking for in an international student.

Afternoon tea

A complimentary afternoon tea will be provided between the workshops. This is your opportunity to make student connections, meet our Director (Students), and a UTS LSS representative.

Come join us as you prepare for your career while studying in Australia!
