What have you been doing since leaving Exeter, and what are you doing now?

I came back to China in 2018. After spending a happy and interesting time studying in the University of Exeter, I was experiencing a hard period in my life. The process of finding a job is difficult, especially taking into account the different graduating time between China and the United Kingdom. Firstly, I tried to get an internship in one internet enterprise as an investment and financing assistant, but I found that this job is not suitable for me because of the working pressure and restricted lifestyle. Finally, I took several exams and got an accountant job at the present university.

Why did you choose this career? And what do you enjoy most about your work?

This job is suitable for me, because I can have time to do what I want to do, especially in the summer and winter vacations.

What did you enjoy most about studying here?

The advanced equipment on offer (Bloomberg!) and the peaceful town.

Why did you choose to study at Exeter?

It has a good reputation and useful curriculum.

What skills and experiences have been most useful for your career?

More practice!

Since completing my MSc degree at Exeter, I was Marketing, Communications and Events Coordinator with London Metropolitan University’s Students Union. I was working there from October 2023 – February 2024. At this role, I got the hands on experience in various aspects of marketing and events like social media marketing, print marketing, content creation, ppc, website management, partnerships, event organization and management, etc. In this role, I got to practice a lot of things I learnt during my course at Exeter. In February 2024, I switched to the role of a Faculty Marketing Coordinator role at University of Southampton. This role comprises of undertaking faculty marketing activities for Faculty of Arts and Humanities and Faculty of Environmental and Life Science. I have learnt a lot already and I am very grateful to be able to get these opportunities.
