What assistance do you provide for graduates in seeking employment?
We encourage graduates to use the resources in the Work Ready Essentials programme on Moodle. The online resources contain great information on all the things you need to know when looking for work in New Zealand. You can receive a certificate of completion after finishing the five core modules too: https://moodle.op.ac.nz/course/view.php?id=7635§ion=0. You can also find great resources through the Careers NZ website: www.careers.govt.nz. We encourage graduates to discuss their goals and job strategies with a member of the team. Visit them on Level 1, or email: workready@op.ac.nz.
As a graduate, you can access the Work Connect programme, featuring free workshops and one-to-one support to help you with your job search. Details here: https://www.careers.govt.nz/work-connect/work-connect-workshop-dates/#cID_8336.
There is also The New Kiwis programme run by the Auckland Chamber of Commerce – this is similar to Work Connect and is also free. https://www.newkiwis.co.nz/job-seeker/info-centre/advice/new-kiwi-career-success-course.
