After I started my master’s, my career changed – I got a job in the Construction and Infrastructure Department of Panevėžys District Municipality as a Senior Specialist. After graduating, I got a pay rise. In addition, I applied many of the things I had learnt at work, such as working on the Lithuanian Spatial Information Portal, searching for the relevant version of the Construction Law or technical regulations.
