Why Australia? A Land of Opportunity and Challenge
After earning a Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering and gaining two years of hands-on experience, he set his sights on Australia. Not just for the lifestyle—but for the chance to work on complex, meaningful structural projects.
“I believed Australia had great potential in construction and engineering.”
But degrees alone weren’t enough. Like many international engineering graduates, he ran into a frustrating barrier: no local experience, no job offers.
Making Ends Meet – And Staying Focused
To support himself, he spent nearly three years working in fast-food restaurants. It wasn’t glamorous—but it built resilience, discipline, and an understanding of Australian work culture.
“Those jobs taught me to be patient and focused on my long-term goal—becoming a structural engineer.”
His dream stayed alive. And so did his commitment.
Getting That First Break: The Internship at Ostanes Engineering
After completing his postgraduate studies, he joined the Premium Graduate Program—and got matched with Ostanes Engineering, a respected name in structural engineering in Brisbane.
“I researched Ostanes. Their reputation and work culture were exactly what I was looking for.”
From day one, he felt welcomed and supported. The internship was structured, practical, and aligned with real-world expectations.
Real Engineering Experience – Not Just Theory
During his internship at Ostanes, he gained exposure in:
- Structural drafting and civil design
- Site inspection documentation
- Residential compliance reporting
- Reviewing technical drawings
- Understanding building codes in Australia
“I had used AutoCAD and Revit before—but this was the first time I applied them in a local engineering context.”
Balancing Work, Life, and Engineering
Even while interning, he kept a part-time job to stay financially independent. Thanks to the flexibility of the Ostanes team, he managed both without burnout.
“Their understanding made it possible to build professional and life skills at the same time.”
He also improved his communication and time management—skills critical in any career in the construction industry.
From Internship to Career: What Comes Next?
Now that he’s completed his internship, he’s applying for full-time roles in civil and structural engineering across Australia.
“I’m confident now. I know the codes, I understand the process, and I’m ready to contribute.”
A Message for Future Engineers in Australia
“Internships like this are essential—especially for international students. Ostanes gave me a chance to prove myself.”
