Great session today at UNSW Business School where myself and others from the cyber industry had the opportunity to share with master program students, on the value of hands on experience and the top digital skills hiring managers are looking for in graduates.

How do you stand out among the hundreds of graduate applicants who have similar degrees? It’s the hands of experience and projects that you have undertaken, either through a capstone course or your final-year or side project. We’re keen to hear how you’ve put your knowledge to practice. Being able to demonstrate that is how you can stand out from the other applicants. It was a great discussion with lots of follow up questions and conversations. Thanks Dr Pranit for the opportunity. Always happy to support the next generation of cyber leaders.
