Publicising
your job vacancies on the web
Whether it is an undergraduate or graduate position, vacation work or a volunteer experience, the Service can publicise your opportunity on our student portal, CareerHub.
To advertise your job vacancy or graduate recruitment program:
- Register your business/organisation on CareerHub UTAS
- Once you have received approval of your registration you can then advertise job vacancies. Log in to CareerHub UTAS
If you would like to advertise for a Uni student to do some casual jobs around the home such as gardening, cleaning or tutoring; please contact the Student Employment Service directly on (03) 6226 2511 or (03) 6324 3164 or email student.employment@utas.edu.au
Other services offered through CareerHub include on line event bookings for employer information sessions, quick links to your website, and the opportunity to target specific discipline groups relevant to your recruitment requirements.
All opportunities placed on CareerHub are done so free of charge.
Mailing your
literature to students
Send your brochures, invitations or letters to us and we do the rest!
We can target mail outs to students undertaking specific fields of study.
Mail out services include labels, standard size envelopes (DL), postage and all administrative costs. We do not accept letters already placed in company envelopes due to Australia Post requirements for University charge-back. Therefore two mailing options are available:
- Collect University of Tasmania envelopes from Student Services and you insert your material and return to us for labelling and mailing. Cost is $2.20 (plus GST) per envelope.
- Provide us with your inserts and we will take care of things from there. Cost is $3.30 (plus GST) per envelope.
Just enter your request in the form below and the mail out will be posted on your requested date.
Important - Please ensure any material sent includes the following disclaimer -
"This correspondence has been addressed and forwarded by your University Careers Service. No personal information about any students has been made available to any external organisations."
Bulk emails to students
We can target students in specific areas of study by bulk email. This is usually a short message, no longer than a standard A4 page, of plain text. Under University guidelines we are unable to send attachments or logo banners with bulk emails.
The bulk email service is only available for the publicising of specific employment opportunities.
To cover administrative costs, our new bulk email fee structure is as follows
(please note GST has not been included in the charges quoted):
$50 |
For the first 500 students
(includes administration fee) |
0.10 cents per student |
After the first 500 students |
If you have any queries please contact Sonia Jessup on (03) 6226 2511 or (03) 6324 3164 or email careers.service@utas.edu.au
To request the bulk-email service, complete applicable sections of the form below and it will be sent out on your behalf on a date specified by you (please allow a minimum of 36 hours from date of request).

Careers Week
Each year, during Careers Week, the Careers Service runs a variety of careers related activities and events across the Hobart and Launceston campuses, on all days of the week, culminating with the Careers and Law Fairs.
In 2010, we will be holding one combined Careers Fair for ALL disciplines on Friday 5 March, in place of the separate Careers Fairs and Law Fairs that we have held in previous years.
During Careers Week, we invite employers to market their graduate opportunities to students, particularly to penultimate and final years, through the offering of employer information sessions, employer panels and participation in the Careers Fair.
Registrations for the 2010 Careers Fair are now open. To go to the online registration form, click here.
Following heavy promotion and marketing, over 2500 students attended face-to-face activities during Careers Week 2009. To view the 2009 Careers Week program click here.
