Kickstart your career

'QUT's Corporate Partners in Excellence scholarship has been instrumental in shaping my career and paving the way for success. Thanks to this scholarship, I secured a 15-week internship with Equifax, one of QUT's esteemed industry partners and a global leader in consumer credit reporting. This internship ultimately led to Equifax offering me an ongoing position, and I later embarked on a fulfilling journey with one of the Big Four consulting firms. Working for such renowned companies early in my career has been an incredible opportunity, enriching my professional development and providing invaluable experience.'
