Practical experience is an important component of most courses. SMEC recognises this and we look for it when reviewing the CVs submitted by young graduates. In turn we try to provide opportunities for experience where possible. The problem is that we get a very large number of applications… far more than we can possibility accommodate.

The opportunities for a position will depend entirely on workload at the time. To be successful you will probably fit the following profile:-

• Commencing the final year of your studies at a recognised university
• Completing a degree in Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Geotechnical Engineering, or Environmental Science or alternatively a double degree incorporating any of these disciplines.
• Interested to join SMEC as a graduate at the completion of your studies.

Applications should be made in writing to your nearest SMEC Australian or regional office. Because the positions are dependent on local workloads we are unable to accept applications through the Head Office or through the “Recruitment” web address.

Please note we cannot accept the following:-

• Applications from outside your specific geographic region. For example Australian graduates applying to Australian offices will be considered; Indian Graduates applying to the Delhi Head Office will be considered, etc. It is rarely possible to place work experience students in developing country projects or offices. It is just about impossible to place students from outside Australia into an Australian office.
• Applications from disciplines outside our core business. We cannot provide experience in IT, business development, or marginal engineering disciplines such as telecommunications, chemical, mining, etc.

Preference will always be given to those entering final year. Applications should include a covering letter indicating your career interests and a detailed CV.

SMEC is an equal opportunity employer.
