hi guys i am currently studying dual majors in marketing and management in the university of wollongong in the bachelor of commerce undergrad degree.
i will start my 2nd year in feb 2012. my primary major is management. In my first year
scores in my management units were 77, 80 (those were my major units) and in the rest units i got 60+, 65+ (which included economics, accounting, finance, business ethics, statistics which were not my major units)
from 2nd year onwards all my subjects will be major units based on management and marketing. I hope to score 75+ in those.
But my question is when i apply for a job in marketing or management they will only look at my final year results and maybe 2nd year results right? as 19/24 subjects will be based on management and marketing only the rest five in which I didnt do well in my first year will they also look in those? will it affect my interview and possibility of getting a job?
my uni doesnt give out a gpa but i can calculate the gpa on a scale of 4 using the australian system should i give the GPA of my major units only in my CV/resume?
or the overall which includes the 5 other subjects?
Is there a thread here also from which I can know what are the average results/gpa/marks obtained by the fresh graduate to get their first job with income of 2.5k to 3k plus?
I think you shouldn't worry too much about not having the gpa system. The big companies would have certainly heard of other systems and it shouldn't be a problem, since you'll definitely not be the first person having this. Just include your official transcripts in your application and if possible some basic explanation about how the grading is done in your university. i will start my 2nd year in feb 2012. my primary major is management.

A major factor that can greatly improve your chances would be any internships/work experiences that you might have obtained during your studies. If you have done these, make sure they are well detailed in your resume. From my personal experience, this can be a major game changer.
Another thing you can try is contacting your alumni who are working in the industry that interests you.

If the interviewer call back and said I've been accepted for the job. What should I said on the phone when I'm still blur for the T&C?
Accept first, came to the office and only reconsider after reading the T&C? or said I'll reconsider when I read the T&C through phone?
Thank you
Personally, I always say yes on the phone and ask when I can get the offer letter. You can still reject it later if the offer isn't good enough, since you haven't given any written confirmation but only a verbal interest. Saying you'll only 'consider' the offer on the phone wouldn't be advisable in my opinion. Just say yes and then decide once you have the offer details.Accept first, came to the office and only reconsider after reading the T&C? or said I'll reconsider when I read the T&C through phone?
