James Cook University Careers Directory Profiles

The programme gives you the chance to try so many different roles that you wouldn’t get to normally do.

Some of the most important skills are being able to get on with people, a hunger to learn and being open to new experiences.

Some solutions I have heard have been quite innovative which firstly helps the project and secondly helps me to grow my knowledge and problem-solving skills.

It is also cool how in a few years I still get the ability to be able to look back at the work I was part of and see how this helps the community. Moments like this give me a sense of reward and that all the hard work was worth it.

Jamuna Sharma Dhakal studied Master's Degree in Electrical Engineering at the Auckland University of Technology and is now a Graduate Engineer at Powerco.

My favourite thing about Powerco is the people. Having good relationships with people across the business has been great for me.

My favorite part of my job is using my creativity to design visually appealing applications, using data we have created or that has been supplied to us.

When you find an organisation with a culture that resonates with your own values, that’s a special thing.
