“It’s not often I post about work, but It’s pretty incredible that I get to call this my job. At the age of 18, I managed my first ever event, a basketball tournament for 400 people in the outskirts of Melbourne. Fast forward 8 years, last night I was lucky enough to host over 55,000 people for U2 – The Joshua Tree Tour. So many months of planning which went into it all and multiple challenges along the way but an incredible night overall. This one is going in the pool room one day.” – Via LinkedIn, Eray.

“I got thrown in the deep end when I came to SEDA which I loved. I took on more responsibilities and was able to maximise my own learning. At SEDA, you get out what you put in and I quickly recognised that this was my chance to show people what I had to offer and how valuable I was as an employee. It was a platform for me to showcase who I was as a person, separate from my resume. It gave me a really good work ethic, as well as great approach to life.” — Josh
