Welcome to MCC307
November 4th, 2009This new blog is designed to offer students studying Campaign Management the opportunity to reflect on, and share their experiences, of developing public relations strategies for a community-based client.
Students studying in Singapore in T3 2009 are asked to post their final blog comments to this site.
To get the ball rolling, can you identify ‘transferable skills’ you have developed through your participation in this unit? Transferable skills can be used across different settings and are relevant for both new graduates whether they are already working in industry and considering their next promotion or career move, or whether they are applying for their first ‘real’ job. This link to an Australian government website might be useful: http://www.workplace.gov.au/workplace/Individual/Jobseeker/Careers/CareerJobSearchTips/All/Usingourtransferableskills.htm
Alternatively, Murdoch’s career centre summarises a list of skills employers look for: http://ace.murdoch.edu.au/skills2.html
In addition to identifying the skills you may have developed or enhanced through participation in this unit, it may be useful to consider what you could use as evidence to demonstrate that you have these skills? This sort of evidence is what you may be asked to provide in an interview situation, or when addressing selection criteria.
