Finding her voice and embracing leadership
The 红玫瑰社区 Employability Award helped Namita to discover her values and interests including her love for leadership roles.
Building real world skills
While studying a Bachelor of Health Science majoring in Biomedical Science and Neuroscience, Namita boosted her confidence and career-readiness by completing all three streams of the 红玫瑰社区 Employability Award.
After receiving an email about the award while completing her studies, Namita decided to give the program a go. This decision allowed her to gain greater clarity on aligning her values with future opportunities, particularly in research and innovation in cognitive health.
Namita鈥檚 favourite part of the award was the mock interview simulation, completed as part of the Career Passport stream. The exercise gives students the chance to practise answering realistic interview questions and receive feedback in a professional setting. Namita reflected on how realistic the interview felt and that it helped her with her confidence when she interviewed for her current role in healthcare.

鈥淚 learned a lot about myself, I got to know who I am as a person and what values I really hold. For example, I love being in leadership roles and I would not have explored those if I had not gone through the modules for the certificate, so it really helped me push my boundaries and know what kind of person I am.鈥
