Season 2 - Episode 5
In this episode of Chinwag Tuesdays, I chat with Anish, a civil engineer from Chandigarh, India, now living in Adelaide. 🌏 From growing up in a family of engineers to navigating university life in Australia, Anish shares his journey of career choices, cultural adaptation, and the challenges of settling into a new country.
We dive into his experiences studying in South India, overcoming confidence barriers, landing internships through LinkedIn, and even teaching in the Himalayas! 🏔️ Anish also reflects on key differences between Indian and Australian education, networking strategies, and his first impressions of Aussie life.
