Why our Professional Year program gives you way more than 5 points

The Employability Podcast

20-11-2022 • 27 mins

Get some first hand perspective on the experience that our Professional Year program promises and how the training and internship elements work together to not only develop your technical and soft skills, but also your confidence as a recent graduate!

In today's episode, we catch up with Samriddha (Sam) Adhikari, one of our graduates from the Performance Education Professional Year program in Sydney.

Sam secured a role as Junior Software Analysts through his internship at Gradability and we asked Sam:

  • what his key takeaways from the Professional Year program were,
  • what he did to secure his role,
  • and what advice he has for anyone wishing to pursue a Professional Year program.

While PY students may be eligible for 5 points under the skilled migration program to pursue permanent residency in Australia, there are heaps of benefits that Sam got out of the program which can’t be measured in points.
