Due Date Weighting Format Length/Duration Submission
What are circumstances beyond my control?
Available here is a list of circumstances that may be beyond your control. These are exceptional circumstances or
situations that may:
• Prevent you from completing a course requirement,
• Keep you from attending an assessment,
• Stop you from submitting an assessment,
• Significantly affect your assessment performance.
You can find more detail and the application form on the Special Consideration site, or in the UNSW Special
Consideration Application and Assessment Information for Students.
Additional Assessment Feedback & Remarks
Please read the specific feedback on your assessments in detail, alongside the general feedback provided by the
Course Coordinator. Feedback is optimised if you revisit the assessment question, your completed work, the general
feedback about the assessment provided on Moodle and the marking rubric. It is prudent to reflect on this
information for a chunk of time (e.g., a day) before a discussing with your tutor; insightful analysis takes time to
consolidate. If the specific feedback on your assessment still raises questions, please contact your tutor directly.
Liaising with your tutor for additional feedback will need to be completed within 5 business days after the assessment
has been returned.
If your questions have not been resolved with the tutor, please apply for a remark via
[email protected]. In
your request, please use the marking rubric and learnings from the discussion with your tutor as to why you advocate
the assessment is worthy of a higher grade. This request for a remark also needs to be completed within 5 business
days after the assessment has been returned. Please note that in a remark, your mark may go up, though it may also
remain the same or decrease.

Purpose
The Interview Skills assessment is an opportunity to tailor the course to suit your learning. Building on the week 1
Moodle section ‘before the lecture’ and tutorial work, you will be finding an organisation that you are aspiring to work
for after graduation. Also refer to the Moodle tab ‘Assessment resources: Interview Skills’, as this has detailed
guidance under ‘Step 1: Resources for selecting an organisation and organisational issue’. The organisation you
choose does not need to be the ‘perfect fit’; finding out who you do not want to work for is an important part of this
journey too. In selecting your organisation, please ensure you can access information about their people and
technology resources; if this information cannot be found, you may need to reconsider using this organisation for your
assessment.
You are expected to utilise the same organisation in both assessments; this will save you time on background
research. It may be that as you progress the assessment, you learn you no longer aspire to work for that organisation;
this is important learning and does not mean you need to switch organisations. Utilise the opportunity to think about
how this refines your criteria for graduate positions.
