Careers Expo at The University of Adelaide

Information for Students

The Careers Expo presents a huge spectrum of graduate career options under the one roof. If you're graduating this year or even looking for vacation work, it's a great place to meet with employers, ask questions and find out about different graduate career pathways for the 2013 graduate intake.

Students should:

1. Put the dates in your diary!
2. Make sure you book in on CareerHub so you can find out who will be at the event and plan which employers you want to approach.
3. While you're logged in to CareerHub why not book yourself in to come along to our 'Expo Preparation Seminar' on Monday 19 March from 12-1pm in Engineering South S111 so you can learn how to maximise your opportunities on the day and stand out from the crowd?

*** Did you know that many structured Graduate Programs close their applications in March/April of this year?***

Careers Expo is a great chance to start researching. Don't forget to drop into the Careers service for assitance with your applications.

Past events

Careers Expo 2011 saw the extension of the event into a third on-campus venue. Innova21, Bonython Hall and the Goodman Crescent Lawns all housed exhibition space over two days, attended by more than 4,000 students. Business partners, human resource advisers and managers from some of Australia's leading government, private and not-for-profit organisations gathered to meet students, answer questions and attract future graduates. Students jumped at the chance to take advantage of the opportunity and gain insight into their future careers and network with professionals in their field.

Careers Expo 2010 was held in Bonython Hall and on the Goodman Crescent lawns. Approximately 100 employers met with 3,500 students over two days, complemented by a speaker program.

A range of experts from Defence, PricewaterhouseCoopers, MyCareer.com.au, Credit Suisse, KBR and Santos delivered advice on subjects ranging from career paths, what employers are looking for and the finer points of addressing selection criteria in the application process.
