Preparing for a job interview



Preparing for an interview

This site will help you do some ground work before your job interview. This essential to making a good impression on an employer. Researching the company/organisation and the role itself will help you answer the employer's questions, and show you're keen for the job.
The interview is your chance to present your skills, experience, personal qualities and other strengths as they relate to the position you are applying for. It is also an opportunity to get more information about the organisation or position. This will help you decide if it is the right job for you.

Sarah and Ben went out with the amazing group of student volunteers who have been assisting residents all over Christchurch, following the 7.1 magnitude earthquake on September 4.

Over 900 students were out on September 9, clearing driveways and backyards of silt, manning roadblocks for the council, and offering their services anywhere they could.

For more information on how you can help, please visit the Student Volunteer Base Facebook page:

It's 60 years since the first ascent of Mount Everest by Sir Edmund Hillary and sherpa Tenzing Norgay.

Scaling the world's tallest peak was much more challenging back in the 1950's.

Today, the climb is more popular than ever, but there are concerns about overcrowding.
