David Beards' Job Tips
For the past three years, we have been lucky enough to make welcome Mr. David Beards of Telstra to give students a presentation of how to apply for jobs. Topics such as resume writing and interview tips are covered, often through David's own experiences. If you were unable to attend the presentation, David has given us kind permission to make his slides available on our website.

IEEE Student Networking Forum
One of our primary aims is to keep students informed about the work place, as well as to help develop extremely important career searching skills. That's why we host our Student Networking Forum (in co-operation with the Curtin IEEE Student Branch) annually.

The Student Networking Forum allows students to interact at a personal level with representatives from top Engineering firms. Whether you are looking for Vacation Work or just want to learn more about the industry, the Networking Forum is a great way to learn more about your profession!

For more information, see Student Networking Forum.
