Selling yourself as an international student

There are lots of ways to stand out from the crowd when applying for jobs, but international students have a few extra tricks up their sleeves and it’s a good idea to highlight the following skills in a way that is tailored to the role you’re applying for.

  • You’ve had an international education
  • You’re independent, resourceful and able to cope with change
  • You’re likely multilingual
  • You have intercultural competence, and can interact with people from other cultures
  • You’ve had life experiences that provide you with different insights to Australian graduates.

Understand what sets you apart and celebrate your differences to domestic students and grads, it’s the key way to get your foot in the door.
