Q&A:<br />
A first from<br />
Corrections.<br />
Have you ever been interested<br />
in a new career or a specific<br />
job, but haven’t had the<br />
chance to talk to anyone<br />
about it before applying?<br />
Probably, yes.<br />
Here’s your chance to learn more about<br />
a career with Corrections. If you’re<br />
interested in an exciting and rewarding<br />
career as a Corrections Officer, you can join<br />
our Live Q&A event and have your questions<br />
answered by Corrections Officers working<br />
in New Zealand prisons. You will have the<br />
opportunity to ask your questions to the panel<br />
of working Corrections Officers and have them<br />
answered in real time.<br />
Over the last year we’ve held information<br />
evenings in cities and towns across New Zealand.<br />
Next week, for the first time you can have all<br />
of your questions answered live online from<br />
wherever you are. Our team will be on hand to<br />
share their experiences about working to help<br />
offenders change their lives and answer any<br />
questions that you and your whanau might have.<br />
Our Live Q&A event will make sure that you<br />
have the information you need to decide on<br />
a career with Corrections.<br />
Kahore tetahi o tatou, taea te mahi,<br />
nga mahi e taea o tatou katoa.<br />
Not one of us can do the work as well<br />
as all of us working together.<br />
MEET YULIA<br />
Yulia’s experience and passion for working with<br />
people has ensured her smooth transition into the<br />
role of Corrections Officer at Auckland Region<br />
Women’s Corrections Facility.<br />
“I joined Corrections at the beginning of 2017, I<br />
had previously worked in a range of roles including<br />
early childhood teacher, swimming instructor and<br />
most recently caring for older people and people<br />
living with disabilities.”<br />
“I love working with people, and was looking<br />
for a different challenge. I found the job through<br />
Seek, and researched the role on the Corrections<br />
website. I watched the videos of staff sharing their<br />
experiences, which made me realise this was<br />
something I could do. I dived in, accepted the<br />
challenge, and I’ve never looked back.”<br />
“I love what I do, and I think so many people out<br />
there may not realise just how much impact they<br />
can have building a career here.”<br />
“I will never forget the journey, and where it has<br />
taken me so far. There are a world of opportunities<br />
out there – I can’t wait to see what’s next.”<br />
Yulia McConaghan, Corrections Officer<br />
