About Career Chat sessions
Using real time video conferencing technology, Career Chat sessions are compact and designed to keep you up to date with the latest developments in the world of employment.
Presentations will be held via the Zoom platform, where participants can listen to presenters and ask questions about that session’s ‘Careers Chat’. Held each week on Tuesday at 10am, students are invited to register to participate with the live session.
For those that are unable to attend, the sessions will be recorded and uploaded for you to watch at your convenience.
Past Careers Chats have featured topics and guests such as: Online Interview Skills, Staying Motivated While Applying For Work, The NSW Public Service Commission, and more. You can catch up on past Careers Chats in CareerHub here.
