Tête-à-tête - 9: Pooja Malik

"
I love travelling. If I sit in the office for too long, I start missing the airports and the airplanes. If you make your travel fun then it is not cumbersome. I make sure I exercise regularly, eat healthy and sleep well when I am travelling. For a change, I have also started reading books while on travel. This helps me perform to the best of my ability especially during meetings and student interviews.
Last but not the least, I ensure that I never lose track of my emails no matter where I am."... says Ms.
Pooja Malik,
International Recruitment Advisor
, University of Canterbury.
