I know exactly how it feels to be a student job-hunting in Australia — like running a race without seeing the finish line. You keep applying, only to face rejection after rejection. Every time you open your inbox and see another “Unfortunately…” email, your heart sinks a little. But trust me — if you stay persistent, focused, and keep improving, your effort will pay off. 🌱
Today, I want to share the inspiring story of Kevin Bui — someone who stayed on that path with incredible resilience. After nearly six months and more than 500 job applications, Kevin finally crossed the finish line with an amazing job offer! 🎉
💼 Kevin landed a full-time role as an Automation and AI Specialist at H1 Healthcare, one of Australia’s leading healthcare providers with over 40 years of experience nationwide.
🎓 He recently graduated with a Bachelor of Computer Science (majoring in Data Science). Even while still studying, Kevin was proactive — seeking internships, expanding his network, and continuously learning.Although he officially joined my Career Kickstart Program in September, he had already connected with me on LinkedIn earlier in the year and joined every workshop in our 2025 Job Skills & Industry Series. I’ve always admired his dedication and curiosity — qualities that truly make a difference in a competitive job market.
🌟 During the program, Kevin consistently attended live sessions, completed every task, and asked for feedback to improve further. And right before our final session on Offer Review, Salary Negotiation & Onboarding, he received his job offer — talk about perfect timing!
Even better, by applying the strategies we worked on, Kevin successfully negotiated a salary increase of nearly 10% 💰 — an incredible result for a fresh graduate, especially in such a competitive market.
When I received his message and testimonial, I was genuinely touched — because I know this wasn’t luck. It was the outcome of consistent effort, early preparation, and a true growth mindset.

“Throughout our sessions, Chloe guided me on how to improve my resume, negotiate salary with confidence, and prepare effectively for interviews. What I appreciate most is how she always took the time to understand my situation and provided advice that was both practical and encouraging.Thanks to her mentorship, I’ve become much more confident in my career direction. I’m truly grateful to have learned from her and highly recommend her as an inspiring and dedicated mentor.”
✨ If you’re in the middle of your own job search and can’t yet see the finish line — remember:
“Keep moving in the right direction and don’t stop — because opportunities will always come to those who are ready.”
