"I selected James Cook University as it is the only University in Australia that offers an Internship program as part of the course curriculum
The Internship gave me the opportunity to develop better
programming skills. The "real experience" was working and
developing websites in real time, I learnt and developed a lot of
skills - not just technical, but communication skills and the
ability to deal with any situation. You don't get that in a
classroom!
At the end of my Internship the CEO publicly praised me for my contribution to the project.

RECRUITMENT SERVICE.. I am an international student from India undertaking Master of Professional Accounting/ Master of Business Administration at James Cook University Brisbane. Joblinx at James Cook University Brisbane campus has been of a real help to me, in finding my dream job.
I never thought that starting a voluntary job with one of the most recognised accounting body around the world, CPA Australia, would be so easy for me. It was like a dream come true for me to work in field related to my studies.
It was all made possible by the Joblinx team at JCU Brisbane. The employment centre is equipped with quality staff with great industry contacts and a friendly approach. They always helped me out with all the minute details like writing a resume, the Australian style of personal interview, dress code and the types of possible questions and answers. The other great thing of Joblinx is that the department contacts the student whenever a new opportunity arises. I hope more students will contact the Joblinx team and achieve their job goals, as I did.

POST GRADUATE EMPLOYMENT I have received numerous benefits and help from JCUB Employment & Careers Department. Throughout my study in the university, my internship with a local Australian company not only enables me to apply theoretical knowledge to the work but also enhance my career profile. In addition, I attended workshops in regards to Australian work culture, interview tips and resume review. The information I got is very useful and helpful. After graduation from JCU, I still keep receiving their assistance and advice and it has helped me to obtain a position and start my career in Australia. The Joblinx Department is very resourceful and they do their best to prepare students for the business world. Their knowledge and information will definitely bring me a better success in the future.
