Ozford puts a lot of its career support under one place: a Student Success Program plus a Career Hub. PickMyUni students usually come to this guide asking, “Will I get practical support with my CV, interviews, and work experience?” Ozford’s answer is yes: there are free sessions and workshops, 1:1 help from a Student Success Coach, and options like internships and volunteer placements (note: internship placement may have fees). If you’re an Ozford Australia international student, the same career support can also help with English confidence and workplace readiness while you study.

Weekly Job Ready Seminars + English/study support (helpful for international students)

employment advice and opportunities
It also describes weekly English support sessions for students who need language support, plus practical help like writing tasks, plain-English formatting, and strategies that support students from different educational backgrounds.
What this means for Ozford Australia international students
PickMyUni’s view: this mix can be useful if you’re building workplace confidence in English while learning how Australian-style applications and interviews work (without turning it into “extra study you don’t have time for”).
Internships and placements by Ozford Institute
Ozford says an internship program is available for students who want to connect with industry, and that fees apply for the internship program/placement.
The Career Hub also mentions internships “on offer” across accounting, business, and IT, and lists outcomes like making industry contacts and gaining work experience.
