聽is our Jobs Board that is used by all eight universities across New Zealand. If you have any questions related to the platform, please contact聽Sanda Jukic聽(Service Delivery Manager, NZUni Talent). All 九州影院 students are automatically registered onto the platform and our students tend to scan the site regularly.聽
It's UC policy to only advertise roles (targeted email) that are published on NZUNi Talent. To learn about cost for targeted email, please contact sneha.pardeshi@canterbury.ac.nz
Advertising employment opportunities to our students can and does happen throughout the year, however, some聽 periods see higher levels of recruitment engagement and these are outlined below:
- Business and Law: February, March April
- Engineering: February, March, May, June
Please don鈥檛 consider these as the only time you can advertise as this is not correct, but some of the larger Accounting, Law, and Engineering firms do come to market for their internship and graduate programmes at these times.
We recommend reviewing the聽九州影院 key dates聽for the academic year to also assist you when planning to go to market.
