Student Job Search Motivate Students And Strive To Meet Employer Needs

With the cold, rainy weather and shorter days, winter can often be de-motivating, which is why Student Job Search (SJS) are running a winter competition on their Instagram page to encourage students to beat the ‘winter blues’, and get active by winning a new Fitbit.

The lucky winners will hopefully be eager to use their new Fitbit’s to stay motivated and improve their health by tracking their activity, exercise, food, weight and sleep.  Students will go in the draw to win the Fitbits by liking the post and tagging a friend they would like to ‘get fit’ with.

As well as online competitions, SJS have also been on campuses around the country. The team has been engaging with students to remind, and inform them of the SJS service that can help them find work while studying, so they can build experience and earn some much needed money to help them through. Students also benefited from some useful SJS giveaways too!

Being on-campus, engaging with both new and existing students helps SJS to ensure they always have fresh talent and the right person to meet the needs of each and every employer, whether they’re professional or household.

Employers can advertise their jobs for FREE and have access to over 200,000 tertiary students looking for work. With more than 30 years experience working with New Zealand businesses and household employers, SJS can help employer’s find, screen and shortlist candidates. Whether it’s a graphic design role, receptionist or someone to help around the house, employers simply need to list the vacancy, specifying the skills and experience required. Student applications will then be screened by Student Job Search to make sure they meet employers’ minimum requirements.

It is also important not to discount graduates, who will bring new skills and the latest thinking from their field of study. Employers can benefit from their drive and potential, whilst helping to shape today’s youth by providing them with the opportunity to gain essential skills and experience. Furthermore, employing a student or graduate will give employers first hand insights into their generation, which can prove fundamental when considering future strategies.

At Student Job Search they have first-hand experience of employers stating that hiring a student has changed their work place for the better. A student’s energy, positivity, humour and overall eagerness to be in their first job can transform the work environment overnight.
