Career and Employment Service - advice for employers seeking to raise their profile

Ways in which we can put you in touch with Massey students

The career expos that we host and the vacancy system NZUni CareerHub are only two of the ways in which we can help you to link with Massey students and recent Massey graduates.

Information sessions

These can take place on any one of Massey’s campuses. They are an opportunity for you to present information to a targeted group of students to profile your job opportunities and your organisation. We can assist with publicising your session; advising on the timing of it; targeting your information to the appropriate audience; booking rooms and audio visual equipment that meets your requirements (subject to availability) and arranging any catering that you would like to provide.

Advertising

Your needs can be advertised as part of on-campus recruitment activities, or throughout the year for external recruitment. Advertising is offered via notice-boards and through teaching departments via our established network of career contacts. You can also arrange paid advertising on your own behalf in the student newspapers:
To organise your information session or to find out more please contact the Career and Employment Service on the campus that you would like to visit.

Interview facilities

Subject to availability, any one of our three main campuses may have facilities available in which you can interview selected job applicants. We can also help with catering; audio-visual requirements and with scheduling your interviews.

Scholarships & awards

These can be a great way of forming good and early links with some of our most able students. They can be targeted to a specific faculty or discipline, or a specific group of students - for example, Maori or Pacific Island students, those undertaking extramural studies and students with a disability. For more information please contact Massey’s Graduate Research School.
In addition, you may find our information on the Massey University Foundation useful.

Guest lecturing

Throughout the year, we offer a range of workshops and talks to our students on a variety of career-related topics. These range from sessions on career choice through CV development and interview techniques to ones on particular roles and sectors (e.g. careers in marketing or media). We would welcome your involvement in these and can advise on potential topics.
This involvement can enhance your profile; offer you access to students interested in your organisation and sector; act as a conduit to academic colleagues at Massey and assist you to target an able group of potential job applicants.

Resource libraries

The Career and Employment Service has a resource library on each of the university’s main campuses. Providing us with material for these libraries is another way in which you can profile raise as these areas are well used by our students and graduates.
Material that we would welcome from you includes:
  • Information on your organisation - including brochures and recruitment literature
  • Information on the sector in which you operate and/or on the occupations that you recruit people for
  • Posters profiling your organisation or sector and their opportunities - we may be able to pass copies of these to relevant departments too.
This material can be hard-copy; electronic or multi-media - including DVDs; Videos and CD-Roms. However, space varies between libraries so please check with us before sending material. In the main, our libraries have space for reference material; display boards and brochure racks and limited facilities for students to access careers literature electronically.

Finally -

We aim to be responsive to your needs and welcome contact with you. As the service that we provide to employers, students and graduates varies slightly from campus to campus we recommend that you make contact, at least initially, with the Career and Employment Service staff member on the most appropriate one.
