Internship Year: 2009
Internship: Marketing Services Analyst at Accenture
Now: Manager, Funding Policy and Systems Planning at the Ministry of Advanced Education and Skills Development

“My Career Edge internship provided me with critical experience during the recession, when opportunities for new graduates were scarce.

My mentors at Accenture gave me the opportunity to face new challenges and grow, and helped launch my first career in marketing.

Now, in my career in public policy, I rely on those early foundational lessons from my internship to try to stay at the frontier of my field, and bring out the best in my team.”
