Professional Poster Presentation on Employability

An internship, reflective activities and two reflective assessments scaffolded students to create posters evidencing their employability, graduate attributes and their unique personal brand developed in workplace projects. Articulating their abilities, showing how they added value to current and potential employers, students demonstrated how these experiences can support future transition to their careers. Posters also showing their LinkedIn profile, career ambitions and skills assessments were displayed to industry representatives who provided feedback. Posters can be used as a resource during recruitment complementing a resume.
