I could not recommend this unit to anyone more. If you want to launch your career whilst finishing of your capstone unit at Monash - Jane is the person to go to. This unit is not for those seeking convention and instant gratification. Jane herself is unconventional. But saying that, she is caring, has an extremely strong network and will take the time to get to know you on a personal level. This unit is not for lazy, people - she provides a framework for YOU to achieve success. There are times you may feel confused or unsure, but Jane rewards critical effort and desire to better oneself. Don't expect marking rubrics, and constant evaluation. You could get more out of this unit then any other unit, if you put the work in. It's a real-world unit. She has an extremely rich history and takes into consideration all of your personality. If you are afraid of being criticized, then this unit is not for you. I have numerous friends who have been set up with Internships which have provided a career pathway that otherwise may have been not possible without her. There is a reason a high tier university such as Monash offers a unit that is only run by one person. This is because there is an underlying old school method to which she achieves success for her students. Hope this helps you in your decisions for your university life.

Honestly would rate 0/5 stars if possible, initially this unit is great for those wanting to cover their capstone unit and their marketing unit as an elective cause this is a combination of both. However, the process and the management of this unit is incredibly terrible. Ms Jane Carroll, could not give her students the time of day and even remember her appointments, which she scheduled. Submitting the proposal into the 3 top areas which you are most interested in early/on time does not even get evaluated by her until the actual day you get 'interviewed'. The interview is a complete joke, mostly she complains about how students always expect her to match an internship for them rather than find it themselves amidst her out of control untidy tiny office space. She likes to glare at you with immense judgement and even pass on her subtle racist/discriminative remarks, such as, "I think you're more well suited to be in research or something to do with numbers" just because I am of Asian and Chinese decent. For an educator who's number priority was to encourage diversity and unconventional thinking/skills, she comes off very condescending and arrogant with the way she speaks and 'selects' her students. It's not a surprise that many students tell each other that this unit is a waste of time, I just don't see why Monash Business School isn't doing anything to handle the poor management of this unit, even with a low and overall unsatisfactory response rate from SETU's. TL;DR: this unit is a waste of your time, effort and money. Choose some other capstone.
