  • Coaching Session 1

     

    Let’s start by getting to know you and what brings you to the program. We will discuss the DOTS model of career development and employability skills. You will gain your access to the exclusive Which Career For Me (WCFM) questionnaire.

     

    Coaching Session 2

     

    Your Career Coach will work with you to understand your WCFM questionnaire results and together you will discuss your values, motivations, future skills and a range of career options to explore.

     

    Coaching Session 3

     

    It’s now time to 'Design your Experience' at UNSW. Together you and your Career Coach will begin developing a plan for engaging in employability programs available to you throughout your degree. This gives you a unique opportunity to maximise your employability journey during your time at UNSW and prepare you to discover purposeful career options.

     

  • Any student in the 'discovery' stage of their career! These are usually students in first or second year, however if you are at a different stage of study and feel that you could benefit from the program, you are also welcome to book in the initial group session to discuss with a Career Coach.
