Career and Employment Service: sound advice - a series of audio podcasts on careers topics

Introduction

Here you will find links to a series of brief career-related audio or video based podcasts. As they are mp3 files, you should be able to listen to them on any device that is capable of playing these types of files. This could include your PC; laptop computer; PDA; cellphone; mp3 player or even your car audio system.

Each mp3 file can either be downloaded individually, you can subscribe to a podcast feed or you can use software to subscribe and automatically download the podcasts.

We’ll be adding to this series on a regular basis, and are keen to have you contact us with ideas for topics you’d like us to cover here.

  • What we offer students.mp3 (5,730 KB) What the careers service can do for you - A brief outline of the broad range of services we offer to Massey students/recent Massey graduates and how to access these services.
  • Interview wait podcast.mp3 (3,417 KB) Before the interview - You have been called to a job interview, have arrived, and are asked to wait in reception. How can you use this time most effectively? This brief podcast offers some suggestions.
  • What is networking.mp3 (5,119 KB) What is networking? - You may have heard, or read, how important it is to network. What’s meant by the term though, and why should you do it? How do you build a network?
  • What to ask when networking.mp3 (7,792 KB) Networking: what can you ask? - Follows on from the podcast ‘What is networking?’ Here we consider some of the questions you could ask contacts you’ve made, and how you might gain their co-operation.
