Year 9 students attended a career incursion on Wednesday this week where they participated in a series of workshops covering resume writing, interview preparation, career exploration and how to create a Unique Student Identifier (USI).

The first workshop for the students was, ‘Writing a Winning Resume’, and was presented by Kathryn Taylor, Director and Founder of Turning Point Consulting. Students learned essential techniques for crafting effective, competitive resumes that confidently showcase their strengths and unique capabilities in future applications.

Following this, the interview preparation session provided practical strategies to help students present themselves professionally and respond effectively to common interview questions. Additionally, students were introduced to career websites such as mcauleycareers.com, jobjump.com.au and myfuture.edu.au which can be used to research different pathways and broaden their understanding of various career options and post-school opportunities.
