Develop and communicate policy ideas to reduce data breaches in NSW
I really liked how practical and realistic the tasks were—it felt like something I’d actually be doing in a government job. The End of Life journey task especially made me think deeply about the human side of service design, which is something we don’t always get to explore in uni. It was also great to learn about how different agencies work together in the public sector.
What I liked most about the NSW Government Virtual Internship Program was its practical, real-world focus and insight into how public policy and service delivery work in action. The program offered a unique opportunity to engage with realistic scenarios, such as improving digital services and addressing community needs, which helped me understand the complexity and impact of government work.
I really appreciated how the program offered realistic, hands-on simulations that closely mirrored actual workplace scenarios. It helped me gain practical skills and better understand the day-to-day responsibilities of the role. The step-by-step guidance and clear instructions made it easy to follow along and build confidence.
