My first job wasn't my dream job. But it was a springboard to where I want to be.

I took non-paid volunteer roles after school to get skills for when I graduate. It helped me learn what I liked and didn't like. And I built a good work ethic.

After finishing Uni I remember going through a really tough time. I applied for so many jobs but didn’t even get an interview. It was depressing. All my friends were moving out into sharehouses. I was still living with my parents because I couldn't afford to move out. I kept taking whatever jobs I could get, even though they weren't in the field I had studied. I saw a careers counsellor. I did some volunteering in my field to build up my resume. I felt like a failure.
