15.01.2022 Last Friday, the Hon Michaelia Cash, Minister for Employment, Skills, Small and Family Business met with graduates working in the Employment and Skills areas of the department.

13.01.2022 Tegan joined the department as a generalist graduate. During my first rotation, I worked in the National and International Assessments team in the Curriculum and Assessment branch. The side of the team I predominantly worked with focused on international assessments, particularly PISA, the Programme for International Student Assessment, which compares the performance of countries’ with one another. I worked on a wide array of tasks, from drafting ministerial correspondence a...nd briefings and co-ordinating correspondence that comes to my team to reviewing stakeholder reports and assisting with providing strategic policy advice. Although I studied a Law and Arts degree at university, someone with a different background or qualification could do my job and the people in my team are from a range of different backgrounds. Apply for jobs even if you don’t think they align perfectly with what you have studied many organisations and departments are looking for a variety of backgrounds and experiences. See more
