Graduate Surveyor, Rural at Carter JonasRead the full review »
Application Advice:
Communication is key, being able to talk to people is the root of being a surveyor. Having experience is going to push you up the list as you are being taken on in a trainee role that costs the company alot to put you through and the last thing they want is to take someone on and that person decides it's not right for them.
Interview Advice:
Main piece of advice would be to relax, they are not out to trip you up, they just want to get a sense of you as a person and see if you can hold a conversation and retain some knowledge. Know your current affairs, industry related facts (land prices, rents, commodities prices, relevant govt ministers).

Application Advice:
It is important to consider yourself in the role that you are applying for - this will ensure that firstly you understand the role properly and secondly, you consider what you will bring to it. It is also very important to keep up to date and be commercially aware of issues that will affect the business that you are looking to go into. Employers are looking to find someone who will cope with the shift from university to employment as easily as possible.
Interview Advice:
In an interview be honest and yourself - no one is expecting perfection and it is really important that your personaility comes across as primarily employers are looking for someone who that they like and would want to work with everyday!
