How Flinders can help you thrive in a changing job market

Let’s be honest. When we look back at 2020, we recognise it as a year of immense change. Masks and hand sanitisers, Trumps and Tiger Kings, lots of lockdowns, too little socialising and waaay too much binge watching.

While we’re happy to see all that upheaval in the rear-view mirror, global shifts in the way we work and live continue to lie in front of us.

Turn change into opportunity

As the world moves towards a new normal, now is the time to re-evaluate where you want your career to go. If you continue to do the same old, same old, chances are not much will change.

But, perhaps you feel it’s time to explore a new career direction. You may want to add qualifications that can help you step up in your chosen field, or you may simply feel that right now is the right time to work towards the career of your dreams.

Many industries have thrived despite the changes of the past year. A recent report by LinkedIn identifies industries such as healthcare & social assistance, mining and construction as not only resilient, but recording growth.

Whatever industry interests you, a tertiary education will help put you in a strong position to secure your future, and Flinders University’s industry-linked approach to learning will make sure you graduate job-ready.

If you want to follow the road to a new career, Flinders can help you get there.

Work integrated, career-ready learning

Flinders’ degrees are designed in close consultation with industry, and our partnerships with leading organisations across all our study areas not only help us stay in touch with current career and industry trends, but help us anticipate what’s evolving.

We speak to industry. We work with industry. From creative arts, to business, science, engineering and beyond, many of our leading academics are practicing industry leaders themselves.

By studying at Flinders, you’ll have the opportunity to take advantage of our leading Work Integrated Learning (WIL) program. WIL gives you then chance to develop practical, real-world skills through placements and industry-driven projects.

Our annual Joblink Summits bring students and industry together on campus, and offer a great opportunity learn and network.
