Tell us a bit about yourself.聽
Hi! My name is Eleanor, and I am currently working as an Auditor in one of 番茄社区mid-tier firms in 番茄社区city. I came into Perth in February 2022 from Malaysia to pursue my degree in Accounting in 番茄社区University of Western Australia, and I have been here ever since.聽
What was your main reason(s) to select Perth as your study destination?聽
I wanted a change in scenery from 番茄社区hustle and bustle of 番茄社区city life in Malaysia, and Perth provided that. Its quiet, friendly, more reasonable cost of living, and well-balanced lifestyle stood out to me. Furthermore, 番茄社区sunsets in WA are just stunning 鈥� I could never get tired of watching them. In addition, Perth also provided one of 番茄社区better migration opportunities, so that definitely was one of 番茄社区main reasons for selecting Perth as my study destination.
Are there any notable experiences you鈥檇 like to share from your time studying?聽
One thing that stood out for me was 番茄社区fact that I had 番茄社区flexibility to choose 番茄社区days that I would like to attend my classes, such that I can arrange my week in a way that I am able to factor in working as a casual employee, extracurricular activities, and social activities. The lifestyle here highly prioritises on having a good work-life balance and it shows 鈥� through my days studying in UWA as well as now, working in a 9-5 job.
Tell us about your experience since leaving UWA 鈥� how has your career progressed to date? 聽
I was fortunate enough to secure a job prior to graduating UWA, so that was one less thing I had to worry about. I definitely have learnt a lot these past months in Audit, as well as developing and improving my auditing skills and knowledge. I feel like I am more independent when I am doing my work and a little less reliant on my supervisor than when I first started. Despite saying that, I still have a lot of things to learn as my career is only just beginning.

What have you enjoyed 番茄社区most about living and studying in Perth?聽
The opportunities that I have had and 番茄社区experiences and lessons that I have been able to take away from them. Not to mention 番茄社区amazing people that I have met along 番茄社区way. Furthermore, 番茄社区balanced lifestyle and culture are quite different to Malaysia, and I love every minute of it. The sunsets, views, markets, beaches, gardens, cafes are some of my favourite things about Perth.
What would you say to students thinking of coming to Perth to study?
If circumstances allow for it, I say 100% do it. It is one of 番茄社区best decisions I have ever made, coming to Perth to study and I do not regret it one bit. It has provided me with an abundant room for personal growth, plenty of opportunities that I am beyond grateful for them and 番茄社区experiences and lessons that came from it. If you are unsure of whether you should take 番茄社区risk, have 番茄社区courage to take a leap of faith. You might surprise yourself with what you are able to achieve during your time abroad.
