Prosple Australia/GradAustralia Profiles

My grandmother worked for the Department of Justice and I noticed how respected she was by the community. I’m glad I am here continuing that legacy.

My graduate year has been an invaluable experience. I would encourage anyone from any background to apply. There’s something in the VPS for everyone.

Seeing how government works from the inside is valuable, no matter what you want to do with your life.

The coolest part of my job is the level of responsibility and autonomy I have in completing my work. A lot of the work I have undertaken has a direct effect on taxpayers, and my decisions are trusted and enforced.

There is a tension between conceptual purity and pragmatic implementation of statistics that must be negotiated and interpreted by the analyst, which I find both challenging and interesting.

Everyone I have worked with throughout my time has been so warm, welcoming and will always offer their help when you need it. I find that this has made my experience as a Graduate that much more enjoyable.

Within the office I am responsible for working on a project that leverages statistical techniques paired with technology, to aid in taxpayer compliance.

This environment allowed me the try things and get feedback on them, achieving my goals of designing assessable content.
