What our graduates have to say
"I studied a Bachelor of Science at the University of Melbourne and completed a certificate of Marketing and Digital Communications at Monash. Whilst, completing my studies I was working part time in one of the Bank of Melbourne Branches which gave me a good understanding of banking which I built on during my Grad Program.
Asides from my time at work I like to spend my time playing Netball, which I play twice a week with games varying at difference times. I'm fortunate that Westpac allows for flexible work arrangements in relation to how I manage my work flow and WFH options, this has ultimately allowed me to continue my extra-curricular activities, which I wasn't sure was possible before joining the program.
Since rolling off the program…
The program allowed me to create strong relationships within the Commercial space, which ultimately led to my current role within the Commercial Healthcare team. Through all of my rotations I was able to build on both my experience and knowledge, which has really contributed to my ability to hit the ground running at the commencement of my full time role.
Whilst my studies did not relate directly to my current role, the grad program helped me understand my strengths and how to apply them in both my professional and personal life.”
