WALL OF FAME

Bryan Moodie B Com Honours in Information Systems, 2020 Management Consulting Analyst, Accenture Being honest about my journey and not embarrassed about my pitfalls set me apart, I saw rejection as a development opportunity. The interviewer acknowledged my resilience by returning to pursue my qualification. I used all my part time experiences to build a strong representation of what I had to offer my ideal employer.

Minenhle Nene B Admin Honours in Political Science, 2020 Research Intern, South African Institute of International Affairs (SAIIA) I found a mentor in my area of interest to make sense of my career goals. This helped me when networking and engaging in strategic conversations at graduate recruitment events. I kept my finger on the pulse of our careers service calendar, attended a careers evening and did not limit myself to waiting for just that one opportunity.
