New website gives insight and advice on careers

A screen shot of the website.

Does your son or daughter think they know what they want to do when they leave school but not sure how to get into it?

Maybe they're considering a couple of career choices and trying to land on the best one for them.

A new website helps students and anyone at any stage of their career get valuable advice from those already in their career choices.

You can view the careers advice and insights here www.canvascareers.co.nz/career-advice

The Canvas Careers website, set up to promote the Tauranga Careers Expo on August 10th and 11th features a range of local career heroes sharing their advice, insights and tips and Priority One's Instep Manager Lyn Parlane says its proving popular.

'We have accountants, lawyers, doctors, truck drivers, journalists, project managers, marketing executives, event managers, graphic designers, engineers and more on the website, each sharing their career journey.

"What they thought they wanted to do when they were 16, what they ended up doing and how they got into their chosen fields. It's a fantastic way for people to get some insights that they often don't get until they've launched into their careers.”

Lyn says 'The best advice I'd say is, jump on the website, find someone in a career you're interested in, read their story then bring those insights along to our expo and delve even deeper.”

The Canvas Tauranga Careers Expo runs Friday August 10th and Saturday August 11th at ASB Arena. Entry is free. www.canvascareers.co.nz
