Few studies have addressed the university-to-work transition experience of international postgraduate students. This paper contributed to the literature as it proposed a three-stage university-to-work transition framework including stages of finishing a degree, looking for a job, and working in a job. A qualitative research design with in-depth interviews was used to explore the university-to-work transition experience of eight international postgraduate students who were working full time in Australia. The international postgraduate students faced considerable stress during the first two stages. They used an array of job search strategies including networking, internships, and career workshops at university, and secured employment through networking and recommendation rather than by formal methods because they did not have permanent work visas. International postgraduate students were excited and relieved when they found a job, but faced stress when they transitioned into the workplace, and were inhibited by a lack of proper induction and their inadequate business communication skills, but were assisted through mentoring.

国际研究生大学到工作转型的促进因素和抑制因素

很少有研究涉及国际研究生从大学到工作的过渡经历。这篇论文对文献做出了贡献，因为它提出了一个三阶段的大学到工作过渡框架，包括完成学位、找工作和工作的阶段。使用带有深度访谈的定性研究设计来探索八名在澳大利亚全职工作的国际研究生的大学到工作的过渡经历。国际研究生在前两个阶段面临着相当大的压力。他们使用了一系列求职策略，包括网络、实习和大学职业研讨会，并通过网络和推荐而不是通过正式方法获得就业，因为他们没有永久工作签证。
