SEN Support team believes that students with Special Educational Needs (SEN) should enjoy equal employment rights in the society. To familiarise students with the career options and facilitate their career planning and smooth transition to workplace upon graduation, we have connected with different Non-Governmental Organization (NGOs) and other organizations for sourcing career preparation training and internship opportunities for our students:
Career Advisory Session
Career Advisory Session is offered to all full-time students and recent graduates of HSUHK.
Date and time: All year round (for available timeslots, please refer to the booking page below)
Duration: around 45 minutes per session
Venue: Online Session via Microsoft Teams / Face-to-Face
Our personalized career advisory sessions assist students in identifying career goals and preparing for the future. Students can address concerns regarding career direction, job market information, resumes, cover letters, interviews, and job searching.
