She won silver team medal in Junior event at the European 10 m Events Championships in 2004 in Győr, and bronze team medal the following year in Tallinn, respectively.

The win also made her the first woman athlete to secure quota for Serbia for the London 2012 Summer Olympics. In September 2010, she climbed to first place in the ISSF world ranking in women's 10 m air pistol.[1] At the end of the year, she was named Serbian Sportswoman of The Year by the Olympic Committee of Serbia.[2] Arunović received Serbia's sport association "May award" in 2011.
