The flexibility provided by this role allowed me to study full-time at university while maintaining an 18-24+ hour work week.During my time as a laborer for Deja Blue I developed a range of transferable skills that I never expected to gain prior to commencing. I was able to further develop my communication skills across a range of stakeholders. Problem-solving is an inherent part of the industry, I greatly improved my skills within this area. Additionally, I gained hands-on experience with construction tools and techniques, which gave me a deeper understanding of the construction industry as a whole.

I am thrilled to have had the opportunity to gain experience in a field I had little prior knowledge about, this allowed me to build a diverse skill set. Initially, I was part of the mass rostered team where I honed my skills in data entry and analysis.Through this experience, I have developed a strong understanding of data entry and analysis, as well as the ability to tackle complex problems and work collaboratively with colleagues to achieve desired outcomes. I am excited to bring these skills and experiences to new opportunities in the future
