HOW TO APPLY

The University of mini传媒's online recruitment tool听听is for employers, organisations and community groups to use when advertising vacancies, internships and scholarships to听UC students and graduates.听

UC is part of a group of seven universities in New Zealand that work together to secure and promote employment and scholarship opportunities through the听听辫濒补迟蹿辞谤尘.

This means听听is the only jobs board in New Zealand with direct access to students and graduates from seven of the eight New Zealand universities.

All UC students and graduates can access this service, and about 1300 students log into the site each week to view and apply for advertised positions.

It is a simple process to sign-up and听list vacancies. You can听target your job listing to specific areas of study and preview your advertisements within the employer dashboard. You can also set up and maintain an听employer profile听within the听platform for students to learn more about听your organisation.

Advertising employment opportunities to our students can and does happen throughout the year, however, there are some听 periods that see higher levels of recruitment engagement and these are outlined below:
