1. Which University are you attending? Please list the details of your tertiary qualification(s) and detail any associated majors you have undertaken. Please provide the commencement and completion dates.

Queensland University of Technology.

I have completed the following degrees:

Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering with a Major in Management - Commenced February 2006, Completed June 2010.

2. Please list any awards and extra-curricular or community activities that you are involved in?

I am involved in my local church, Good Shepherd Baptist Church.

I am also in the process of completing my Diploma of Theology, which not only involves academic classes, but also involves a practical experience component which requires a certain amount of involvement in various ministries assisting others.

3. Please list any leadership positions you have held (e.g. Prefect, captain of the sports team)

In my final year of schooling, I was the captain of a sports' house. This involved motivating others in the same house to achieve their best.

Throughout university, I was involved in many group projects which involved taking lead of the group, and helping to organise the workload amongst the team. This often required management and delegation skills as others did not have the initiative required.

4. Please provide a brief summary of any relevant work experience you've had to date.

I was employed as an Undergraduate Civil Engineer at AECOM Australia (Water and Infrastructure Division). Some of my duties included contract administration, traffic control assessment and management of QRA submissions.

I am currently employed part time as a Rail Labourer at Mooney's Contractors Pty Ltd. My main duties include labour work on railway tracks, which involves supervising the team I work with, alongside managing HR issues including timesheets.

I have also worked as an Undergraduate Mechanical Engineer at Parmalat Australia (Industrial Performance Division). Some of my duties included monitoring quality control as well as a specialised project requested specifically by the Director, which involved research regarding improving the number of redundant milk bottles due to leakage (upon being placed in a crate).

5. Please outline your interest in working at Multi-disciplinary firms, specifically within our Engineering business unit?

I would love the opportunity to work at Multi-disciplinary firms, particularly within your Engineering business unit, because of Multi-disciplinary firms fantastic reputation. It would be a privilege to work at a multinational corporation, which has such a diverse operation.

In particular, I am very interested in working in your Engineering business unit as I believe it will give me a great deal of experience and knowledge in this field.

6. What are you hoping to achieve through the duration of our Graduate Program? Please outline your understanding of what working on an engineering project site entails and why you are most suited to that role.

By undertaking Multi-disciplinary firms Graduate Program, I am hoping to grow in my career as an Engineer, whilst contributing to the Engineering division at Multi-disciplinary firms. I would not only like to increase in my practical skills and knowledge, but would also like the chance to grow in management and leadership skills.

My understanding of what working on an engineering project site entails involves having the utmost professionalism, knowing how to deal with different stakeholders, as well as being intimately familiar with the project you are undertaking to ensure minimal disruption to the project.

I believe I would be most suited to that role due to my attention to detail, my ability to work and communicate with others, as well as my hard working ethic.

7. Provide an example of where you have 'dared to do things differently' in your work, study or home. Ensure you outline both the idea and what it resulted in.

As part of my secondary schooling, I was very focused on my sports, and struggled academically. Due to this, I purposed to apply myself in my tertiary education, which allowed me to successfully complete two engineering degrees. This involved, particularly in the first degree, lots of early mornings and late nights, which was a result of my discipline and determination.

As part of my personal development, I have determined to cycle 70km per day. At this stage, I am able to cycle 70km 3 times per week. Through this, I have gained a new level of fitness while continuing to work towards my goal.

8. Tell me about yourself.

I have completed the following degrees:

Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering with a Major in Management - Commenced February 2006, Completed June 2010.

Bachelor of Civil Engineering with a Major in Structural Engineering - Commenced July 2010, Completed November 2014.

I currently have a rail labouring job with Mooney’s Contractors and a cleaning job.

Structural engineering was my major at university and I enjoyed this subject the most.

I have a desire to grow and learn and I believe I will be an asset to the company because I am open minded and have a hard working ethic.

I have been working as a rail labourer while studying to begin my career. Finishing my degrees is the first step to beginning my career.

11. Tell me about a big mistake, how you dealt with it, and what you learned from the experience.
