Yuliia Leshchenko

Due to the on-going Russo-Ukrainian war, around February/March 2022, I had to urgently travel back to Kyiv and escape with my mother to Europe and eventually travel back to Australia.

It was a harrowing experience of escaping a war-zone, crossing the Ukrainian-Hungarian border on-foot and organise travelling back to Australia.

This has been a life-changing experience, it taught me many important life lessons. I have learnt to patiently and methodically deal with pressing issues, never to panic, always carefully plan and execute my plans.

It also taught me what has value in this life, I am very grateful for the opportunities Australia offers and I am highly motivated to contribute.

I am slightly introverted, I like precise sciences, such as medicine. At work, I enjoy working in a team, speaking to customers and also enjoy working alone.

My personality is easy-going and cooperative.

As mentioned above, before coming to Australia, I have spent many years in my country rescuing street animals, treat them medically and find families to adopt them. I belong to several volunteer organisations. I have started similar work in Melbourne and I intent to do this work long into the future.

On my weekends, I often go on nature walks, spend time with family and my pets.

I understand, at work you can buy people's time but cannot buy people's love of work. I have a genuine interest in all things medicine and pharmaceutical.

I am seeking a position in your pharmacy, and I intend to advance my education in medicine constantly, I love learning and never want to stop learning.

Please contact me, grant me a chance to prove myself, you will not be disappointed.
