In July of 2017 at the age of 20, I recognised the opportunity to make money through repairing mobile phones from home; so happened Impala Screens. It has been a fantastic introduction to the world of business. It has taught me the importance of customer service, brand equity, social media marketing, customer databases, clearly defined target audiences, valuing employees, organisation, short lead times, over-delivering of value, b2b relationships and the value of customer rapport. However, due to a lack of scale and fulfilment, I am currently looking to sell and move onto something bigger, better and more fulfilling

This was two month Civil Engineering Internship in a Chinese Engineering firm. Working and living in a different culture was an eye-opening experience.

This job was my first experience in real hard work. Working up to eight days in a row and shifts of up to 14 hours on my feet - it was a fantastic way to make good money. I finished my employment here due to the struggle of studying full-time engineering and running my phone repair business.

This role came about through my involvement in Volunteer Surf Lifesaving and was a fantastic way to make money through physical activity.

My first introduction to working as an employee and learning the value of a dollar - a great experience.
