Meizhu: Meeting high school careers counsellors

No comments :
I was invited to a lovely lunch with secondary school careers counsellors, senior Monash staff and some outstanding Monash students. With round tables, flowers, and drinks, the lunch turned out to be like a ball!

While I was talking to the careers counsellors, I began to think about why I picked Monash University and chose a degree in Commerce.

Four years ago, starting out as a newly-graduated school girl, I decided to take advantage of my number skills and build my way towards becoming a professional businesswoman. My parents suggested I undertake accounting or finance as it is a good starting point for everything, and four years later here I am – a commerce graduate!  

Thanks to this lunch, I gained a better understanding of career planning and learned a few tips about career development strategies. So if you’re ever confused about your future career, have a chat with your careers counsellor!
