Fiona Fullerton, 23, of Huntly, graduated with a degree in geography and geosciences yesterday. The former Gordon Schools pupil secured a job at Shell’s Tullos headquarters during her course following a placement at the oil and gas firm. She said she jumped at the opportunity to start work. “I have been doing the job throughout the second half of fourth year, so fourth year was pretty hard-going,” she said. “It was experience in and oil and gas company, so I took it. I have been full-time since February.” She was joined yesterday by her parents George and Elizabeth Fullerton, and her partner Sean Dawson.
