Careers

[Narrator] It started in 1887 when practical workers needed a place to get skills, to get jobs.

A spirit was built on the dream of a better life and a determination to succeed. A skilled hand, a cultivated mind the motto; and it still is. Body and mind, learning and application, industry-connected, ready for life and work.

So this is RMIT today. Tomorrow will be a different story. We've adapted with every workforce evolution and revolution because innovation is the promise we make to global scale. And today the pace is faster than ever. We know what the future holds, and we know how to prepare again, and again, and again. Life-changing experience. Passion with purpose. Shaping the world. Education is everything. Research is fundamental. Leave no one behind.

That's the RMIT story.

At RMIT our values guide what we do, how we make decisions, and how we treat each other. You will find that some of the questions will touch on how you will exhibit these in your daily life.

Here we always experiment and explore new ideas. So we will ask you about the strategies you will implement or how you react to a specific situation related to your work. This can be done through role plays, case studies, presentations or psychometric testing. These types of questions aim to establish your ability to perform in your role.
