Hi everyone,
I hope you enjoyed the season festivities 2016. As my job as USASA international student representative 2016 came to its end, this will be my last post for the year 2016.
I wrote an article for the international uni blog which I will copy-paste here for those who won’t see it on Facebook pages.
Hi everyone,
First of all, I would like to wish happy holidays for all those who are done with their exams and final submissions. I have been on holidays for 3 weeks now and all I can say is that holidays do not have the same taste when you are an international student representative.
For those who are being strong enough to read my post, I will make it brief about what I did this month.
Hi everyone,
I know there would be few viewers as many of you are submitting your final assignments and are getting ready for the exams. As for me I have been very sick this month due to stress. Hopefully I am better now.
Hi everyone,
So I haven’t uploaded my blog for one month and I should apologize for that.I won’t lie saying this semester has been very busy for me and that I had too many events to organise. I will make my posts very brief for my readers.
Hi guys,
As promised, attached are my reports of both CISA( council of international students Australia) and Ethno-cultural conferences I went to during the holidays. Hopefully they are not long.
CISA CONFERENCE
The CISA (council of international students Australia) conference took place from the 5-8 July in Darwin. The theme of this year’s conference was “Breaking down barriers, facing the future together as one”. Over the 4 days the conference took place in different venues, with different speakers and we had different workshops at the same time. Therefore, I attended the workshops, which were more related to UniSA international students, which will be described later on in this report. Continue reading
Hi everyone and welcome back to uni…YAAAAYYYY…or nay lol.
I hope you had enough time to relax before this new semester. As for me, this holidays were not really holidays as I was involved in many extracurricular activities. I also went to Darwin to attend the 4 days CISA conference and the ethno-cultural student conference in Melbourne. As a result, I learn a lot about international student rights in Australia, the new strategy plan and many more. How not to forget that I have to submit reports about these conferences by Monday…
I will upload my reports later on but first let’s see what I’ve been up to for July.
Hi everyone,
So last week I went to Darwin to attend the 4 days CISA conference. For those who don’t know what CISA stands for and is about, is it the Council of International Students Australia. For more information on what they do, please check their website: http://www.cisa.edu.au/
Let’s go directly to the subject and I am so happy to share with you few information they gave about what Australian companies look for when employing students. I know many of you complain about having the best CV, but you are still being rejected by companies. So below are what these companies look for and hopefully this will help you to get better at what you think you need to improve. You can also find them in the attachment (below), but because of the quality of the images, I am writing them down below.
Hi everyone,
I know this is a very busy moment of the year, as many of you are busy and stress about the exams actually going on. For those who are already on holidays, and for those who will be done soon, HAPPY HOLIDAYS you all. Take that break to chill and relax before coming back the next semester very motivated.
Being myself a student, this month was very busy for me as I had my finals going on. It was hard to make myself available because of my busy schedule to work on my submissions and tutorials with the LTU or my lecturers. Hopefully, I could manage it.
Hi everyone,
So I would like to challenge myself my making this report short and concise as possible, based on what i have been up to for May
May event
3, 4 and 5 May- Formal inquiries
I am surprised that all the formal inquiries or academic review I went to, the students were all international students. This is something I would like to highlight during the O-week for SP5.
This month was quiet for me, as I did not had to attend more than one meeting nearly every day. I was looking forward the semester break, but unfortunately I still had to go to university to work on the projects for the international students. Below are few details of what I did in April.
