The tight labour market is proving challenging for employers, but the good news is that there are plenty of job opportunities for job seekers looking to start their careers.

Strathcona Girls Grammar student Anna Walsh received top honours this week for her outstanding VCE results in 2021.

It was early in her career that Keely realised she enjoyed the prospect of mining. Working 1km below the earth’s surface gave her a thrill, and the heat, humidity and dust were just part of the job! So she embarked on a career in the mining industry, with various roles as a mining engineer, in production and more recently as a mine scheduler, plus engaging in a range of fly-in-fly out work and 6 days on 6 days off schedules.

Inspiring more girls to choose science subjects at VCE and tertiary level has been a long-time ambition of many educators, with no clear-cut or easy solution.
