Hot on the heels of SoT2010′s launch last week, we’re heading into bootcamp season… tomorrow!
SoT Bootcamps are designed to get students ready for work. Between now and the end of the semester, we’re focusing on the fluffy stuff, CVs, communication skills, and how to launch your Tech career in Wellington. In July, we’ll get into the technical topics.
First up, lunchtime Tuesday is John Clegg’s career talk:
The Job market is tough, getting a job and building a career is a lot harder than ever before. John will tell you want employers are now looking for and what you need to do to get ahead.
He’ll also be talking about the new Summer of Tech and what we’re doing to help you have a job and start your career.
Thursday evening is the world famous “resume smackdown” session. So you think you know how to write a CV that gets noticed? Hear it from a real live employer, you may be surprised, offended, but ultimately attending this workshop will help get you one step closer to a job interview. Trust us, we’ve seen a lot of resumes that go straight into the trash, so make sure its not yours.
FYI these sessions are open to ALL SoT students – yes, these first couple are being held at VUW but students from elsewhere are very welcome!
