Students from James Cook University Singapore (JUC) came together for the career talk held on 28 April 2015 at its Sims Drive Campus to learn more on “How to land their first job in Singapore”, despite the heavy rain and thunder storm that evening.
This talk was organized by BestTop Consulting (BestTop) in partnership with JCU Singapore. BestTop is the founding service provider of customized career consulting platform in APAC. Founded in 2014, the company has a passion to help students and fresh graduates with career development and personalised coaching regardless of their backgrounds. Over the year, BestTop provides its services at an affordable price for all.
During the talk, Mr Mao Ning shared his daily job scopes as IT Consultant and some misconceptions about the industry. Aside from that, he had a personal touch of the topic by using his career path as a story to explain the importance of an internship and the techniques for international students to land their first job through an internship. At the same event, students also had an opportunity to hear the personal experience from Ms Sarah Wang, Bond Syndicate Analyst at Royal Bank of Scotland. Sarah highlighted her way to land a first job was not easy task. She had gone through stringent interviews and many rejections before getting what she has ever wanted. The process was tough but with a positive attitude and the power of networking, Sarah is now on the right track to success. “You will never know if the person you meet today may find some qualities in you and refer you for a job opportunity when the time comes.” said Sarah.
Led by Dr Erin Zhang (emcee of the event) during the Q&A session, the speakers addressed burning questions of students and it marked the ending of event. BestTop would like to take this opportunity to thank JCU Singapore for this continuous partnership.
