Prosple Australia/GradAustralia Profiles

You are an adviser, a counsellor, a cheerleader, a boundary-setter, and on any given day you can be both the best and worst person in the world (if your students had any say, that is!).

It’s really rewarding knowing the things you are working on will be used to shape the future education systems of Australia.

The locals I met during the village visits and about the town we lived in gave me such a different understanding of the world – it was a great contrast to my suburban life and really grounded me in reality.

I was given the opportunity to apply my own solutions to challenging problems and learning from my mistakes.

I’m still a little bit in awe of all the science that happens at ANSTO. Seeing the work that goes into keeping the reactor running is motivation for me to keep learning and pushing myself.

The company strongly encourages us to constantly review our plans for the future and what roles we'd like to find ourselves in further down the track. No role is off-limits, so the possibilities are endless.

Everyone in the department brings their own skill sets and knowledge to the different teams.

If we want to make a difference, we can do that through the innovation we see at work every day. It’s not just words or an empty promise.
