Experiences
Student stories
The atmosphere at ECU was friendly and welcoming. Over the course of my degree, I have made some lifelong friends through volunteer groups, social events and classes.
Whilst studying at ECU, I was an ambassador for the Australian Human Resource Institute (AHRI). This helped me to successfully apply for the AHRI internship program, which secured me an internship in the HR department at CGG.
After my three weeks interning at CGG, I was offered a contract with the company, where I worked whilst I completed my studies. This has provided a great opportunity to apply the theory I learnt throughout my degree.
