OUR STUDENTS ARE MAKING A DIFFERENCE AT LEADING ORGANISATIONS

                        MARTIN MARQUEZ
                        BACHELOR OF COMMERCE - FINANCE

                        I am interning at Transmed - Food Service in the finance department. My tasks include receiving
                        invoices from our suppliers and making sure that they are reflected in the company’s books, and
                        supplier reconciliation to make sure that I get a zero variance in both our books and the supplier’s
                        books. The internship allowed me to explore real-life application of the career path I want to take in
                        the future. It also allowed me to develop certain skills that helped me to adapt and co-exist with
                        professionals in a corporate environment.

                        SANDILE NKALA
                        BACHELOR OF COMMERCE - ACCOUNTING

                        I worked as an intern at Bareface, which is one of the biggest modeling and talent agencies in the
                        Middle East. I loved working there because I have a passion and interest for fashion and photography.
                        These past few weeks have helped me to become more confident in my abilities because it is required to
                        work independently. In addition to that, I have never worked with a team as friendly and motivational as
                        the one at Bareface. I am grateful for the opportunity to work there and now to be working at
                        Hunter Foods Dubai.

                        KATE DHAVID ROSKA
                        BACHELOR OF MASS COMMUNICATION - WEB MEDIA AND MARKETING

                        During my internship with Dubai Technology Entrepreneur Centre, I was able to learn more about
                        different start-ups, as well as the various technologies used in Dubai. It allowed me to get a better
                        picture of what the market looks like and how start-ups are launched. This internship allowed me to
                        explore the different skills that I believe are essential to my career, such as market research, event
                        management, photography and other means of communication.

                        MELVIN JEYAKUMAR
                        BACHELOR OF ENGINEERING - MECHANICAL ENGINEERING

                        I worked at Transnational Academic Group – Middle East (TAG-ME) as the social media and
                        communication intern. I used to generate and post content on Curtin Dubai's social media pages.
                        I learnt many skills such as video editing, photo editing, scheduling tweets for future use and much
                        more. Working as an intern has shown me how office life is and to complete tasks in a simple yet
                        effective way.

                        MOHAMMED ISMAIL AMIN PATANI
                        BACHELOR OF COMMERCE - ACCOUNTING

                        I worked as a marketing intern for iWire at GITEX technology week. iWire is Sigfox world’s leading
                        provider of LPWAN connectivity for the Internet of Things (IoT). I loved this internship as it is my
                        passion to know about technology and its advancements. It also taught me to be better in
                        communication with customers, which also boosted my confidence.
