I'd recommend downloading the UoA Alert app. It sends push notifications about any incidents on campus, plus it has a handy shortcut to call security directly. It also provides guidance on how to handle different emergencies. It's a simple safety tool that gives me peace of mind, so I'd say it's worth having on your phone.
I recently graduated with a Master's in Electrical Engineering from the University of Auckland. The current job market in New Zealand is tough for engineers—very competitive. I submitted over a hundred applications before getting a non-engineering job. Practical experience like internships and technical projects made the biggest difference.
