ASA Macquarie

National Volunteer Week highlights the impact that volunteers have across communities every day.

At ASA, being a volunteer-run society means we see firsthand the impact that people can have by simply showing up and getting involved. It also reminds us that volunteering extends far beyond university and can look different for everyone.

There’s no one path or one way to get involved, which is why we wanted to highlight a few examples of how volunteering can look.

To everyone already volunteering within ASA and across the wider MQ community, thank you for the time, effort and energy you continue to give. Your contribution never goes unnoticed ❤️

Rising Leaders Panel Discussion & Networking ✨

Looking to build your network and gain insights from experienced professionals in the finance industry? CA ANZ and TOM People are hosting their Rising Leaders event, bringing together industry leaders to share their experiences and career journeys.

Hear from leaders at Woolworths and CIMIC Group as they discuss the decisions, challenges and opportunities that shaped their pathways into leadership roles.

National Volunteer Week 2026 ❤️

A week to recognise the people who give their time, energy and support to others and their communities.

At ASA, volunteering is at the heart of everything we do. As a student-led and volunteer-run society, every event, opportunity and initiative is made possible by students who choose to give back.

This week, we’re celebrating and thanking all volunteers within ASA and across the wider community.

Your resume might be good. It might also be the reason you’re getting ghosted by every internship application you submit.

Join us at the Resume Roast! 🔥 The employability event where we say the things recruiters are probably already thinking. No corporate fluff. Just brutally honest, constructive feedback designed to help accounting, finance and commerce students build resumes that actually stand out. ✨

Bring a printed copy of your resume and prepare for real feedback on everything from formatting disasters and vague buzzwords to suspiciously overused “detail-oriented team player” claims. We’ll break down common mistakes, explain what employers actually notice, and help you understand how to present your experience in a way that feels professional, credible and memorable. 🤝

The vibe is honest, fun and slightly unhinged, but always supportive. This is a safe space. The goal is not to embarrass students, but to create an engaging environment where professional development feels less intimidating and far more real. You’ll leave with practical advice, written feedback on your resume, and hopefully fewer reasons for recruiters to close your application after six seconds.

📅Date: 27th May 2026
⌛️Time: 6.30 pm
📍Where: 25 WW C122

✨Find Your Fit✨
Join Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand for their Find Your Fit event and explore the career pathways available across the accounting and finance industry.

When applying for graduate and internship programs, employers often ask which area of accounting you’re interested in, but how do you choose when you don’t yet know all the options or what each path involves?

🔍 At this event, you’ll hear directly from and network with professionals from leading organisations, including:
Grant Thornton, Accenture, EY, Acclime, the Audit Office of NSW, and Kelly + Partners, with more employers to be announced.

👩‍🎓👨‍🎓 Open to students studying accounting, business, or finance, the event will help you to:
✅ Learn about different accounting and finance specialisations
✅ Build meaningful connections with industry professionals
✅ Develop your networking and communication skills
✅ Grow your industry knowledge and confidence
⏰ Places are limited — we recommend registering early to avoid missing out.
