The Annual NZMA Careers Fair Know Your Rights The 24th October saw the first of NZMA’s Annual Careers Fair hosted by NZMA Careers.

With over 600 students from all of the NZMA Campuses in attendance the day was set to be a huge success from the start. The 27 exhibitors were poised and ready to meet the students and staff and discuss what they had to offer. Feedback from the day was great with the students and exhibitors finding the event really useful and a great opportunity to build contacts in the industry.

So far from the day we know of approximately 15 interviews, over 15 students signing contracts at the event and several more hoping to in the following weeks. Thanks to 2013 ‘s success, 2014 will now see an NZMA Careers Fair in both Auckland and the Waikato

Over half of them exhibitors agreed that they would be excited to attend again next year and that overall they though it was a “Great event, well organised and the student ambassadors were really helpful!” NZMA Careers would like to say a huge congratulations to everyone who successfully secured a job or an interview as a result of the Careers Fair … here’s to next year!!!!

New Zealand CulinaryPartnerships Fare 2013 Employer TWO WAIKATO HOSPITALITY STUDENTS WORKING AT FUTUREFORCE ACTION NETWORK Futureforce Action Network (FAN) is a ground-breaking Smart Waikato Trust initiative uniting and equipping employers to more effectively incorporate young people into the workplace.

Student Success Student Success Profile New Zealand Culinary FareProfile 2013 NAME: Junior Afiamalu WHERE ARE YOU FROM? Born in Samoa (Apia), moved to NZ when I was 4yrs old and raised in Papatoetoe BACKGROUND: To be honest, during my high school years, I did “play up” a bit so I decided (with the advice of others) to try another option in regards to continuing my education. I then enrolled at NZMA with Jay, my student advisor at the time, and started my journey towards gaining some qualifications It was a bumpy ride at times BUT I got through with all the support from my family and the NZMA team! WHICH NZMA CAMPUS DID YOU STUDY AT AND WHAT COURSE/COURSES DID YOU COMPLETE? Auckland South Campus I enrolled into the Youth Guarantee Progamme (YGP) of 2012 and achieved the National Certificate in Business Administration Level 2 and then the National Certificate in Retail Level 3 . WHAT WERE SOME OF THE HIGHLIGHTS OF YOUR COURSE? Even though I was enrolled into YGP, I never felt like I couldn’t mix with the other students in the other levels and cause of this, one memory which sticks out was being able to form a singing group involving other NZMA students and then performing at the Mangere Town Centre, in support of NZMAs Kapa Haka group’s first public performance HAVE YOU GRADUATED YET? IF SO, WHEN DID YOU GRADUATE? Yes, completed all Youth Guarantee Programme studies in Dec 2012 and graduated in February 2013.


Student Success Profile New Zealand Culinary Fare 2013 WHAT IS YOUR CURRENT JOB? Salesperson at Parallel Imported on Queen Street, Auckland

HOW DID YOU GET THE JOB? Through a friend DO YOU THINK YOU WOULD HAVE SECURED THIS JOB WITHOUT THE SUPPORT OF NZMA CAREERS? No, they offered me guidance and support in areas to do with employment. As a side comment, it’s good to hear the new name of this service “NZMA Careers” as the previous name of “RedFish” was a bit hard to connect with the area of employment. DID NZMA CAREERS HELP YOU IN ANY OTHER WAYS DURING YOUR NZMA STUDIES? OR WITH ANY PREVIOUS EMPLOYMENT? Yes, my previous working role at Kmart was obtained through NZMA Careers and my Retail tutor. The support leading up to this was awesome, and I always felt comfortable in approaching the team. HOW VALUABLE HAVE THE SERVICES OF NZMA CAREERS BEEN TO YOU? Very valuable! Lani was always easy to talk to and get help from. WHAT ARE YOUR GOALS FOR THE FUTURE? I aspire to be like my friend’s father and be a successful business owner and enjoy the rewards that come with success.
