August 9th/16th
ARTS301

Yes, we can what?
Are any of of us truly in
control of what it is that
we can?

Case Study
My daughter’s dog , Lenny,
on his way out

Free Access
Lenny can’t walk through
the invisible fence to leave,
but for some reason he will
walk in

After his walk
Lenny gets his yard collar
on

Creating Your Own Limitations
Is this you?

Understand your
customer…
Find out what unmet
needs they have that you
can supply…
Then work up the value
chain from there.

THIS IS WHY THE CV IS IMPORTANT
Developing your post graduation employment strategy

Reverse Engineer Your Future
Where Do You
Want To Get To?
What is the next
to last place
before your
destination?
What is the
place before
that?
Repeat until you get to where you are right now!
Write it down!

Put Another Way
What
should your
focus be?
Focus on 1st
Impression
Remember: First impressions are best impressions. And you
only have one opportunity to make a first impression!
What do
they see 1st?
Background
Check
Then comes LinkedIn. And then
Facebook and social media!
Then
Interview!
Not to get the job! But to win the opportunity of an interview.

PERSONAL
STATEMENT
My goal is to further my knowledge by applying myself to the area of energy delivery technologies-
especially those driven by renewable resources.
With 4 years of research experience in energy conversion techniques and energy efficient
materials, I would like to join a team where I can apply my skills and knowledge to effect positive
change to business and industry in energy management.
I am driven, hardworking and complete projects to an excellent standard, on time and to budget.
I possess strong communication, time management and organizational skills and I thrive in an
enthusiastic team environment both as a team member or a leader.
EDUCATION I completed my initial education and university degree in India and then relocated to Australia in
2008 in order to pursue a PhD. With an undergraduate and a Masters Degree in Physics and a PhD
in Materials Engineering, I hold a strong science and technology background.
During my PhD studies, and in parallel, I undertook a Graduate Certificate Course in Business
Administration to better understand how knowledge, technology and businesses can be bridged. I
have now developed an understanding of how skills and scientific knowledge can be effectively
and productively put to the benefit of an organization.
Ph.D. Materials Engineering

PERSONAL
STATEMENT
My goal is to further my knowledge by applying myself to the area of energy delivery technologies-
especially those driven by renewable resources.
With 4 years of research experience in energy conversion techniques and energy efficient
materials, I would like to join a team where I can apply my skills and knowledge to effect positive
change to business and industry in energy management.
I am driven, hardworking and complete projects to an excellent standard, on time and to budget.
I possess strong communication, time management and organizational skills and I thrive in an
enthusiastic team environment both as a team member or a leader.
EDUCATION I completed my initial education and university degree in India and then relocated to Australia in
2008 in order to pursue a PhD. With an undergraduate and a Masters Degree in Physics and a PhD
in Materials Engineering, I hold a strong science and technology background.
During my PhD studies, and in parallel, I undertook a Graduate Certificate Course in Business
Administration to better understand how knowledge, technology and businesses can be bridged. I
have now developed an understanding of how skills and scientific knowledge can be effectively
and productively put to the benefit of an organization.
Ph.D. Materials Engineering
[2008-2012: thesis under review]
