During your course of study, it is very important to be planning for when you graduate and enter the workforce. The Faculty runs many different types of events to help you learn how to present and how to develop your networks, as well as what is on offer in industry. Some of these events are part of your course, such as in studio projects, or industry projects, or industry-based learning placements. Other event include industry functions where representatives from top IT professional employers come to speak to you and to meet you.
This is one such event! Come along to hear representatives from Hudson recruitment (one of the most important recruitment agencies for IT professionals in Australia), Accenture and Microsoft, speak to you and meet them at our Caulfield campus next week. These organisations will talk about graduate programs they run, among other things.
