STEVEN NGUYEN

As a graduate in Construction Technology at Western Sydney University, I’m highly motivated and eager to acquire new skills in this field of work. Despite my lack of experience in this industry, a role in this company will give me the opportunity to kickstart my career. Particularly at this stage of learning, I’m keen to apply hands-on skills gained through coursework and previous experience. I always enjoy taking opportunities which is given as it will allow myself to gain further technical skills in the industry in which I’m perusing.
