Graduates can also log on to Careers Connect for the latest graduate internships and jobs. You will need to have a graduate account on Careers Connect to gain access.

  • Gain advice from professionals working in an area you hope to pursue;
  • Seek top tips on how to utilise your university experience in order to support your career journey;
  • Build your network, which will support you to make informed decisions.
