WATCH THIS IF:

★ You’re a current engineering student looking to get workforce-ready

★ You’re excited by fortnightly three day weekends, beach days, and armoured vehicles

★ The idea of supplying the defence force with ultra-cool gear piques your interest!

It’s interesting that Sienna initially imagined a career in screen arts, as her current career sounds like something out of a movie!
