How do you land your dream job after graduating? ๐ŸŽ“๐Ÿ’ผ

Curtin Mauritius Human Resources graduate and SD Worx Talent Acquisition Partner Sharun Bunwaree knows that finding a job is no easy feat.

With more than three yearsโ€™ experience working in global HR companies, including Accenture and SD Worx, Sharun is passionate about relationships, meeting different people, and fostering lively and friendly workplaces.

Her fondest Curtin memory was studying in the library with friends while sharing ideas and enjoying copious cups of coffee.

โ€œWe live through the motto, โ€˜teamwork makes the dream workโ€™. My friends and I always enjoyed sharing our ideas, critiquing each otherโ€™s points of view while enjoying a good cup of coffee.โ€

Here are Sharunโ€™s top tips to help you land that dream job after university.
