Dear Students

 

As we are right in the midst of your examination period, here’s wishing you the very best and do ensure to exercise self-care even while you mug for finals!

 

Regardless if you are about to graduate in May 2022 or are in search of job opportunities to gain corporate experience during your upcoming holidays, continue to take a proactive approach by sourcing for suitable positions in the Career Axis. Below are some job opportunities that you may consider and apply if they fit what you are searching for!

 

Always remember never to do yourself the disfavour by thinking that the job opening would be too competitive; the interview process too challenging and tedious; or your portfolio is lacking for the position. Live by Nike’s iconic “Just Do It” tagline and go for it so long as you possess the passion and interest for the company and the role. While careful consideration for your future prospects is definitely critical, over-thinking might do more harm as you undermine yourself and your chances of securing that dream job in the company that you aspire to work at.

 

Better to ask “What’s the worst that can happen by trying?” over “What if I tried? Would I have stand a chance?” Quoting Forrest Gump, “Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get.” In another words, life is full of surprises – you would not know what will happen next, if you never try.

 

For those who are concurrently preparing for your upcoming interview as you have been shortlisted by FMCG companies like Unilever, Nestle, P&G, L’Oréal, Heineken, and so forth, be it to attend face-to-face interview and/or via the assessment centre, you may like to note the following tips:

 

·        Identify, remember and share (where possible) your basis of motivation on wanting to join the company and the role you have applied for

·        Take note and plan how you would answer situational questions such as, “name a challenging situation you had encountered and how you overcome it”

·        Speak up and be participative during sessions at the Assessment Centre

·        Prepare. Do sufficient research and build up an understanding of the business and your business area of interest in advance.

·        Don’t forget to smile! That’s what makes you personable and also helps you relax.

·        Ask questions like you are already part of the team. Not only is the selection process a two-way process, demonstrate your eagerness and readiness to join the organisation.

 

Top Tips!

·        Be yourself. This cannot be stressed enough.

·        Be engaging and enthusiastic. Pause and think about the question asked and take your time in answering so that you are clear and understood.

·        Review and evaluate each stage of interview: what have your discovered about yourself? Reflect on any key learnings and how you might use them in the future.
