‘Because I studied the combined
Commerce and Information Systems
degree and took advantage of the
opportunities provided along the way,
I was able to secure internships at two
of the big four professional services
firms in the summer of my penultimate
year. This led to securing a graduate
position in technology consulting within
one of them.’
