I also found Loughborough's employability support extremely valuable. The careers resources helped me improve my CV, tailor applications and approach interviews more strategically. The international experience itself was also something that stood out to employers. Having the confidence to explain not only what I learned academically but also the experience of moving abroad helped me throughout the recruitment process.
Looking back, one of the ideas that resonates most with me is the Business School’s ethos of making ‘Progress with Purpose’. For me, purpose is about identifying what you're passionate about and committing yourself to it. Those passions can evolve over time, and that's part of personal growth. What matters is continuing to learn, challenge yourself and pursue the things that genuinely make you happy.
Today, my focus is on living a healthy, fulfilling life, staying active, building meaningful relationships and making the most of every opportunity that comes my way. My time at Loughborough helped me gain the confidence to do exactly that. It gave me a world-class education, introduced me to lifelong friends and provided experiences that continue to shape my career and outlook on life. Looking back, choosing Loughborough was one of the best decisions I've made.
