The professional growth I gained from my placements were huge and had a massive impact on how I approached jobs going forward after the Richmond Institute
I took away with me the ability to make meaningful connections with my peers and other people I come in contact with when doing my placements
Thanks to Richmond Institute connections, I was able to work in Media and Communications for the Murray Bushrangers Football Club and develop my professional communication skills with sponsors. I am still working with them today to help extend their online presence and reach!
I came to the Richmond Institute only knowing that I wanted to do something within sport. The placements gave me first-hand experience in a professional environment which help me decide on my future career path
