Meet Divya Sharma – Master of Business graduate

VU graduate Divya describes her time studying a Master of Business, with her interest in HR culminating with her now working in a rewarding role in that area.

Hear Divya speak about the top things VU offered her during her time studying with us.

“My Master of Human Resource Management was great. My teachers were passionate, and my professors went out of their way to make sure we felt supported.

“During my degree, I was heavily involved in student activities. These experiences helped me strengthen my relationships both socially and professionally, and I was able to build a strong network.

“VU has a strong sense of community and it goes the extra mile for its students.”

“The VU Block Model® offered flexibility to my course. I was able to focus on one subject at a time. It definitely fast-tracked my degree while also offering me the ability to work part-time.”

“When I was studying, I worked part-time in in the VU Student Services team as Clubs Assistant, working with all the VU clubs and their events.

“It was a really great way to connect with people and meet diverse groups.”

“VU does a great job at helping students become more employable.

“My degree equipped me with the right skills and competencies that I needed for the market, and the support services and professional networks available ensured that I grabbed opportunities as they came along."

“My jobs at VU helped me gain Australian work experience, which landed me my first interview right after I graduated, in the HR team at VU as a recruitment officer.

“This role helped me progress into an Associate Business Partner role, which I'm currently in. I advise senior leaders in their workforce planning, budgeting, and all HR matters.

“I plan on starting my own HR consultancy firm during the next decade. My experiences at VU both as a student and staff have set me up well, and I'm learning new things every day.”
