	Description:		In PX62, Jess Noonan and Peter Jewell interview Jacob Martin (Yarra CC), Calum Douglas and Nicole Neame both working at Baw Baw Shire. The three planners are relatively new to planning and have worked in local government for approximately two years. Nicole had worked in community engagement previously. We ask them about the transition from university into the 'real world', what has surprised them and to reflect on their experiences. They comment on the usefulness of what they learnt studying and how this informs their approach to work. This period of transition is unique in our working lives and we hope listeners will consider their own early years of work. The trio indicate the transition is helped by good mentoring. There is also the importance of sections and protocols just as there is the lived experience of dealing with developers, fellow staff and the broader community. The views expressed by the trio are personal and do not in any way reflect the views of the organisations where they are employed. Podcast produced by Complete Podcasting Services. Episode released 4 May 2020. The interview was recorded just prior to the Government enforced lockdowns associated with Covid - 19.
