The Minister of Higher Education and Training, Dr B.E. Nzimande, published the National Policy for an Integrated Career Development System for South Africa in the Government Gazette of 20 April 2017. The policy aims to build an integrated career development system for South Africa that will ensure that all citizens of all ages have access to quality career information and career development services throughout their lives. This is further testament to the importance of career development. The policy also recognises the fact that job security does not reside in employment but in employability and that workers who wish to sustain their employability have to learn new skills regularly. At the Unit for Graduand Career Services, we are committed to assist our registered students with their preparation for the world of work. The “Action Steps Checklist” lists 10 activities that will help you to start managing your career development

Action Steps Checklist √ 1. I am involved in extra-curricular activities (on or off campus).

2. I can list the skills that I developed via the extracurricular activities.

3. I am getting work experience via vacation work, part-time work, or voluntary work.

4. I have spoken to a few people working in the job areas that interest me.

5. I have attended some of the work sessions offered by the Unit for Graduand Career Services.

6. My marks are as good as they can be.

7. I am consistently working on improving my communication skills.

8. I have worked in a team and learnt a few things about myself.

9. I can list 5-10 of my best skills with relevant examples to illustrate how and where I have developed and applied them. 10. I am consistently working on improving my computer skills.

Having access to quality career information is central to making good and informed career and life decisions. The Graduate Recruitment Programme is one of the ways in which the Unit for Graduand Career Services endeavours to expose our students to information about employers and the recruitment process. More and more companies are taking their entire recruitment process online. Are you geared for this mode of recruitment? Is your online profile working for you? If not, do not despair. Pay us a visit and attend one of our work sessions on “How to Optimise your LinkedIn Profile”. Remember, we also offer work sessions on CV Writing, Cover Letters, In- terview Skills, Personal Branding and Job-Seeking Methods.

Elke jaar word baie geld, tyd en energie in die organisering van drie loopbaanuitstallings belê. Gryp die geleentheid aan om jou kennis oor die wêreld van werk te verbreed sodat jy jou kwal- ifikasie(s) en vaardighede optimaal kan bemark. Dit is dus die ideale geleentheid om netwerke met potensiële werkgewers te bou. Baie werkgewers sal oor die volgende twee maande ons kampus besoek. Hulle doelwit is om hulle maatskappye aan ons studente bekend te stel, en baie wil ook hulle beskikbare werksgeleenthede met ons finalejaarstudente deel. As jy twyfel oor enige deel van die werwingsprogram soos dit in hierdie boekie uiteengesit word, nader gerus die Eenheid vir Graduandi-loopbaandienste direk.

The participating companies have invested many hours to create a unique experience of their brand. I am confident that the 2017 Graduate Recruitment Programme will add value to the career development of all students who take up this opportunity.

2 Uit die Direkteur se Kantoor From the Director’s Office

Dear Matie, The 21st century is an exciting, vibrant time to be able to study and prepare yourself for the world of work! However, students need to be prepared for jobs that have not been created and technology that has not yet been invented. What can you do from your side to prepare yourself better? As part of the Graduate Recruitment Programme, the Unit for Graduand Career Services is offering you the opportunity to invest a bit more in yourself and to start thinking about what happens after you have graduated. Today, the average person changes jobs ten to fifteen times (with an average of 12 job changes) during their careers. Job searching and networking, as well as tracking and adjusting to job market trends, have taken on enhanced importance. Have you thought about the importance of doing an internship while you are studying? This provides you with practical, real-world experience that might set you apart from others when you start applying for jobs. Die program wat hier op kampus aangebied word, is ŉ wonderlike geleentheid om meer oor die wêreld van werk te leer en om netwerke met maatskappye te bou. Dit is nou die uitstek- ende tyd om jouself af te vra: Wat gebeur ná gradeplegtigheid, en wat maak my die ideale kandidaat vir ŉ gesogte maatskappy? Het ek ŉ idee hoe om myself vir ŉ werksonderhoud voor te berei, en is my CV in die regte formaat? Hoe belangrik is my sosiale media-profiel vir voornemende werkgewers? Bring your friends along and join the conversations at the career fairs during August. Consid- er attending the variety of work sessions offered by the Unit for Graduand Career Services – come and visit us! May this be an enriching, empowering and wonderful networking opportunity for you!

CV Writing Marquard Timmey

Your Curriculum Vitae (CV) should be a well-prepared document of outstanding quality – remember your CV is a representation of YOU. Its primary task is to convince prospective employers to contact you for an interview. To ensure you of an interview, your CV must distinguish you from other applicants. Writing a CV is not a quick and simple task; a thorough process is therefore needed. If you invest enough time and effort in it and do a thorough job, your CV can contribute to the development of your career objectives, your preparation for job interviews and the improvement of your self-image.

Where can I learn how to draw up a good CV? It is important to be aware of the resources at your disposal, such as the Resource Centre of the Unit for Graduand Career Services, books, magazines and the Internet, where you can obtain valuable information, tips, as well as examples of CVs. We also recommend that you attend workshops and seminars – such as those presented by the Unit for Graduand Career Services – where you can learn how to write a CV. You could also consult employment agen- cies. There are different CV formats that you can choose from, for example the chronological, functional, combination or creative CV. You should always choose a format that will best rep- resent your skills and experiences. What do I want and what do I have to offer? Before you begin to compile a CV, it is essential to do a thorough self-evaluation in order to determine your strengths and skills. Knowing yourself is one of the most important corner- stones of career development. It is also important to determine in which manner these skills/ qualities will be of benefit to the potential employer. Start by making a list of everything you have achieved at school, university and in your personal life. If you have worked, whether full-time, part-time or in the holidays, this must also be listed. You should then describe what contribution was made by these experiences (e.g. development of skills, new insights, qualities and exposure).

Once you have gathered all the information for your CV, you should arrange the information according to the suitable headings in your chosen format. Your CV should preferably not be longer than 3 pages. Sometimes employers specifically request a CV of only 1 or 2 pages. Ask someone to check your CV or to proofread it for spelling and grammatical errors and for any other things that might not be clear. Ensure that your CV is original, reader-friendly and professional and that it is eye catching. In addition, the layout, use of capital letters, underlining, indentation and centering of lines should be faultless.

Remember to update your CV regularly when new information can be added. If you took a GAP year, indicate what work experience and/or skills you obtained during that year. Always keep a career portfolio with all your qualifications, work experiences and acquired skills from which you can select relevant information to include in your CV. You should also adapt your CV each time you apply for a job to ensure that it is applicable to the specific post for which you are applying and to the company to which you are applying. It is critical that you match your skills and experience with the needs of the prospective employer.

5 Covering letter and application form A CV should preferably always be accompanied by a covering letter. This covering letter is your first contact with a potential employer and therefore needs to make a good impression so that the reader becomes interested enough to want to look at your CV. Always address the cover letter to someone specific, instead of “To whom it may concern.” The cover letter is usually made up of three paragraphs. The first paragraph is a brief introduction (who you are, brief details of yourself, academic background and the position you are applying for). The second paragraph deals with why you should be considered and why you would be a benefit to the position and the company. You should point out your most relevant training and experience. End off (third paragraph) with a positive statement and details of what you would like to see happen next and include your contact details.

Make an effort when you fill in your application form, as it often forms part of the initial selec- tion process. Do research about the company concerned and the post for which you are applying and adapt your answers accordingly. Make two or three copies of the application form before you fill it in so that you can first draw up a rough draft of concept answers. Please visit the Unit for Graduand Career Services for examples of CV’s and cover letters.

Watter metodes kan ek gebruik om werk te soek?

1. Moenie van slegs een metode gebruik maak nie - hoe meer verskillende metodes jy gebruik, hoe groter is jou kanse op sukses! Dink kreatief oor jou werksoek proses! 2. Gebruik jou netwerk van kontakte om bewus te word van moontlike geleenthede. 3. Registreer by Personeelwerwing-agentskappe. 4. Skakel maatskappye, instansies of moontlike werkgewers direk. 5. Stuur CV’s uit na potensiële werkgewers of maatskappye/instansies waarin jy geïn- teresseerd is. 6. Reageer op werksadvertensies in koerante, tydskrifte of professionele joernale. 7. Gebruik die internet.

9 The Academic / Research CV

At the Unit for Graduand Career Services, I have noticed that more students inquire about the Research or Academic CV. I tend not to focus on this type of CV, because most inquiries are usually about the Reversed Chronological CV or the Functional CV. With the emphasis on research and getting more South African students to do their PhD‘s, it makes sense to share some pointers about the Research / Academic CV.

Academic CV guidelines An academic CV is based on the Chronological CV format. An academic CV can however be many pages in length, depending on your experience in the work place – five pages is the rough guideline to average length.

The general rule that your CV needs to be a powerful marketing document which markets you to a prospective employer, still applies. Competition is just as fierce in the academic world as it is in industry and business. The main aim of the academic CV is also to get you shortlisted for an INTERVIEW.

Preparation before writing your CV is key to your success. Match the content of your CV to the needs of the particular institution you are applying to. No application will be the same, so it is a good idea to prepare a master / concept CV which you can adapt for any application you make. Have you researched the department and studied their website, familiarised yourself with staff biographies and research profiles, and noted where your area of research might fit?

Your CV will be written to include the requirements of the classic format, but will also need the following information:

PhD extract and perhaps a more detailed synopsis; past, current and future research interests; published research and articles; research methodologies and techniques; teaching experience – student supervision; administrative skills; conferences attended; conference presentations; funding and awards; professional memberships and any industry contact.

10 Do’s: • Use 14 font for your name and 11 font for the rest of your CV. Use Arial or another clear font style. You may look at Tahoma or Verdana as alternatives. • Capitalise and bold your major headings and use bold for any sub-headings • Write your name on the top of each sheet you write – do not staple your pages together • One font style is enough • Be crisp and concise • Be appropriate to your situation • Make it attractive and appealing to the eye • Write in statements – bullet points are most effective • Avoid using the word ‘I’ • Use action/power words at the beginning of each statement (See end of this section for examples) • Write headings which suit you and your experience/history. The headings in the CV example are for guidelines only • Do not be afraid of white space • If you are a new graduate, provide three references. Two references are fine for a more experienced academic. Don’ts: • The words Curriculum Vitae – the reader knows what it is!! • Your photograph (unless you are applying for a job for which a photo is essential) • Job descriptions • Non-essential personal information • Long sentences • Lists – such as your GCSE’s. You might choose to leave these out.

The above-mentioned information on Academic CV guidelines was taken from: http://www.jobs.ac.uk/careers-advice/cv-templates/2069/academic-cv-guidelines/
