// Humans of AMPed // ⁣ Meet @_nminha_ ! She’s an enthusiastic 2nd year QUT Marketing student currently on exchange in Vienna! She loves travelling, obsessed with cultural diversity and is all about bubble tea. ✈️😎🙌🏻 #relatable #AMPedglobal #Marketing #HumansofAMPed #QUTBusiness #QUTLife ⁣ ⁣ 👉 Tells us a bit about yourself? //⁣ Hi guys! I’m Ha - Vietnamese and a second-year marketing student at QUT. A wanderlust, obsessed with cultural diversity and all about bubble tea.⁣ ⁣ 👉What exciting things have you been up to? //⁣ I kickstarted this year with a study tour to India, and I’m currently on my exchange semester in Vienna, Austria. It has been an extraordinary learning journey so far, where I’ve met heaps of people from different backgrounds around the world, learned a bunch of cool cultural stuffs (drinking on campus here is legal, yes I’m serious lol), and had so so so much Viennese cake (or should I say “Torte, bitte”?). ⁣ ⁣ 👉How did you get to where you are now? //⁣ I know it’s pretty common to say, but looking back on myself 1.5 ago (the exact time before I came to Brisbane), I could never imagine how things would change. I’ve become much more self-confident (built up through a lot of networking events though!), found out the career path that is right for me, and dared to pursue my dream job. Easier to say than to do, but my top tips are quite simple. Fake it till you make it, and be brave about everything!⁣ ⁣ 👉What has AMPed done for you? //⁣ Networking and networking, my friend! AMPed is definitely my favourite place to mingle with like-minded, friendly people who always welcome you with the biggest smiles. From industry networking events to informal pub crawls, AMPed has it all and will no doubt bring you the best time of your university life!⁣ ⁣ 👉 The future? //⁣ Despite my unwillingness to leave Vienna and my perfect life here, a part of me actually can’t wait to be back to Brisbane to meet up with friends and take on new challenges. What am I looking for? A mind-blowing learning experience, an exciting summer internship, a game changer, you name it. I’m certainly ready for the brand new journey ahead!
// Humans of AMPed // ⁣ The spotlight this week is on AMPed's final year Advertising student @sam_wood_man - a down to Earth uni student, setting goals and experiencing uni life to the fullest! The photo below is him at AMPed's Welcome Back Pub Crawl 😎👏#HumansofAMPed #Advertising #unisocialite #QUTLife #QUTBusiness #AMPed ⁣ ⁣ 👉 Tells us a bit about yourself? //⁣ With a diploma of marketing in my arsenal, I am in my final year of business, majoring in the very fun discipline that is advertising. Like most high school students in year twelve, I was often asked about what I was planning on doing after school had ended. “ We will see” was often my response, but I always knew I wanted to be a creative. Not wanting to disappoint my working class family whom believed in the hard honest work of trades and sales, Advertising is where I landed. More specifically; copywriting, a career path that incorporated business, strategy and most importantly to me, creativity. ⁣ ⁣ 👉What has AMPed done for you? //⁣ In my final year of uni I have looked for different things to test myself, that manifested itself in attending the advertising challenge Colab 2019. Myself and the assigned team of diverse and talented young minds reached the top three, but just missed out on first place. As disappointing as it was, the experience was incredible and I now have great answer to the job interview question “when have you dealt with rejection in the past”. ⁣ ⁣ 👉 Advice for other students? //⁣ Challenging and keeping myself accountable by doing the things I have committed to. Whether that be, tutorials, lectures, uni events or social gatherings. ⁣ ⁣ 👉How did you get to where you are now?//⁣ AMPed has not only been a uni group for career development and guidance, it is also a place where I have worked on my personal development. Whether that be net working with students and industry professionals or having a SUPER-COOL-FUN-TIME at the not so industry events like the pub crawls. ⁣ ⁣ 👉 The future?//⁣ Let’s hope there is a future… and us humans figure stuff out. If we do, here’s to hoping I am writing some creative copy selling you on things you may or may not need 😉
// Humans of AMPed //⁣ @daniel_tracey12 - 2nd year Business student, volunteer at Interactive Minds, keen traveler and avid AMPed member! #HumansofAMPed #damndaniel #internationalbusiness #marketing #QUTlife #qutbusinessschool ⁣ ⁣ 👉 Tells us a bit about yourself? //⁣ Hey guys, I’m Daniel. I’m a second-year student studying a Bachelor of Business - International, majoring in Marketing and International Business. I grew up in Hong Kong and am interested and in travelling and experiencing different cultures.⁣ ⁣ 👉What has AMPed done for you? //⁣ Besides attending AMPed events, I am currently volunteering at Interactive Minds. They’re a company who runs regular events and programs to keep Marketers informed of the latest industry trends, changes and opportunities. It’s great to be able to absorb valuable knowledge from industry leaders, meet industry professionals, and hear what the future of marketing may look like. ⁣ ⁣ 👉 Advice for other students? //⁣ I believe that learning takes place inside and out of the classroom. Attending co-curricular activates such as the Business Advantage program and taking the advice of role models I’ve met along the way, has helped me get to where I am today.⁣ I first heard about AMPed, from our Business Advantage Co-ordinator Marvin Fox. The best piece of advice he gave me was to make the most out of the opportunities that QUT offers. Join that club, meet new people, attend valuable events, take on any challenge, and of course, have fun. After hearing this, joining AMPed seemed like a reasonable next step.⁣ ⁣ 👉How did you get to where you are now? //⁣ The AMPed community has welcomed me with open arms and allowed me to make the most out of my degree so far. AMPed has given me the opportunity to make new friends, network with leading industry professionals and gain a better understanding of the career pathway options I could take. ⁣ ⁣ 👉 The future? //⁣ Next year, I hope to be completing an international exchange year in the United Kingdom and Singapore. Before that, I’d like to complete an internship and improve my digital skills so I can share my experiences with my community.
// Humans of AMPed // ⁣ From Madagascar to Brisbane, AMPed member @sonya_avellin is getting the most out of her QUT Business degree! She consistently attends AMPed events and has some excellent advice to fellow students! #HumansofAMPed #internationalstudent #newfavmember #QUTlife #QUT #QUTBusiness ✈️ 👋🏻⁣ ⁣ 👉 Tells us a bit about yourself? //⁣ Hi guys! My name is Sonya Avellin, I came all the way from Madagascar to study Business at QUT and I am currently in my third year, majoring in International Business. Also, I have been working part-time for almost 2 years now at this Australian company which has operations in my home country.⁣ ⁣ 👉What has AMPed done for you? //⁣ I have been attending numerous events including AMPed ones, in and out of campus, which have reminded me that people don’t actually bite and that it is ok to be an introvert in a buzzing environment such as networking events.⁣ ⁣ 👉 Advice for other students? //⁣ To be honest, learning from my failures got me where I am now. Failing my engineering degree has taught me to look at life in a different angle. Since then, I chose what I really wanted to study and stuck to the plan. In fact, working while studying has given me real-world applications to my degree so I have become even more curious about corporates and determined to succeed. Determination and curiosity led me to Singapore and the Netherlands, interning for two big global companies whilst traveling!⁣ ⁣ 👉How did you get to where you are now?⁣ I joined AMPed this semester to make my uni life more meaningful and simply to meet new people. I guess now I can already tick both boxes. Business After Dark event was such an eye-opener for me in terms of connecting with people (face-to-face and on LinkedIn), listening to different stories and knowing about diverse careers perspectives.⁣ ⁣ 👉 The future?⁣ Next year, I see myself doing a Master Degree, hopefully in another country! But first, I want to explore some places in Australia!
