As a mining engineering vacation student, I mostly worked in the Tech Services team, in which I got to experience a range of engineering roles and disciplines such as mine ventilation, gas drainage and mine planning.
Students should definitely take up internships. They should grab the opportunity to work in any organization, gain exposure and develop the necessary skills. The experience that we build over the years helps us in getting a better job profile.
