Claire Pech – Careers Advisor

This week Dan Brockwell from EarlyWork came in to speak to our Year 12 students. He has a lot in common with the Year 12 group, in that seven years ago he was sitting in their seats. Since then he has graduated from UNSW with a Bachelors in Computer Science and Commerce. He has also worked for a lot of start-ups, in the set-up capacity and in an advisory capacity. He did exchanges at University of Virginia and spent some time at Stanford in the US and did some internships at IBM, Deloitte, Uber to name a few. He was recently working at Atlassian full time and just resigned to go “all-in” on his own start up EarlyWork.

Daniel Brockwell (Class of 2015) –  founder of EarlyWork

EarlyWork is on a mission to create the careers of tomorrow that are impactful to society. To say he has done a lot is an understatement, but his advice was extremely relevant and humble with his usual approachable style. Our students asked him questions about his experiences and choices, and we were lucky to get him to do some beatboxing on the side! I encourage anyone to check out his company to learn more about EarlyWork, and for our students going out into the world of work, it is a great resource for future jobs and internships
