What's next?
For Sainte-Marie’s pupils, January
was an important month for post-Bac orientation...
First, with the careers forum
called “Meet your future job!” on the 10th of January. Many representatives
of firms came to our school to talk about their studies and their work experience…
They were very friendly
and helpful. There was a great atmosphere, and pupils were very receptive and interested in finding a job that they might like.
There were several job sectors
represented: research and development, health, the arts, media, sport and
tourism, law, education, social work, commerce and banking.
We, the budding reporters from The duck, spent some time in discussion with a TF1 correspondent. We
learnt that you must be very motivated, love writing, enjoy meeting lots of
people, and be prepared to travel. To become a journalist you have to go to
journalist school. We still have some way to go before becoming star reporters!
The other job-related event was
a visit to Info Sup, a regional exhibition on professions and post-Bac studies organized
in Polydome in Clermont-Ferrand, from the 23rd to the 25th
January.
A bus took us to Info Sup on
Thursday 23rd. All the pupils found it very interesting. All the
study areas were on show. At first we
were a little lost; so as not to waste time, we got
ourselves organized: we worked out who we each wanted to talk to and where we had to go.
All the Auvergne universities
were present of course to promote their courses, but also present were, among
others, the important colleges in medicine and the arts. Even the Army was
there trying to recruit future officers.
It was a great day. We found a
lot of information which we will now study in greater detail…
So, how do YOU see your future!?
