"We have had the privilege of working with a number of talented and motivated RMIT students whose contributions have been invaluable to our organisation. Their fresh perspectives, eagerness to learn, and ability to adapt quickly have brought meaningful improvements to our day‑to‑day operations and long‑term initiatives. What stood out most was their collaborative spirit. The students integrated seamlessly with our staff, communicating effectively and supporting team efforts with enthusiasm. Their positive attitude fostered a constructive working environment and contributed to a culture of continuous learning. Overall, the impact of our internship students has been overwhelmingly positive. We are proud to have been part of their professional development and look forward to welcoming future cohorts who will continue this legacy of excellence."

"Medibank was delighted to partner with students from the RMIT Master of Data Science program. The team demonstrated a strong work ethic, maintained regular progress and milestone check‑ins, and showed creativity by thinking beyond conventional approaches. They successfully solved a real business problem by automating a manual process and delivering an insightful dashboard that revealed market trends and supported informed business decision‑making."
