Here at NTU Career and Attachment Office, we have commonly observed the above doubts and career concerns. But don’t worry! We have got you covered.

Take that one step closer to your desired company as we bring a suite of recruitment events to you. Directly clarify your concerns with employers, gain insights and satiate all your curiosity in a conducive setting.

Attending recruitment events get you a step ahead of your peers, especially in the Banking and Fintech industry. If you are still unsure, here are 3 reasons why you should participate:

1)     Stay updated on the latest developments from Industry Experts

 

Is coding important to join the fintech industry? Besides coding, what are other career options for engineering students? Hear from the Lead Engineer of London Stock Exchange Group on 16 March 2023 as he shares with you on the road ahead – life after computer science. Don’t miss the sharing on their valuable experiences of the various available roles, from Full Stack or DevOps Engineer, to specialised roles like Data Science, Machine Learning and Cyber Security. Learn about the must-have T-shaped skillset to thrive and progress in this industry too.

2)     Connect and Network with Recruiters and Hiring Managers

 

How can you set foot in the door before anyone else? Attend and network at recruitment talks, especially sessions by the companies that you are keen to join! This way, you can get access to insider tips of the application process and clarify any queries with the hiring managers who have dedicated time and resources to share their knowledge with you. This is also the chance for you to connect with industry’s veterans.

Participate in a 3-day Banking Connections Program at Bank of America from 21 to 23 March. Gain insights into the different lines of business for which they are hiring, meet their senior leaders and recent graduate joiners, make new friends, and collaborate on case studies and projects. Best of all, you may get the chance to be fast tracked into the application process for their 2024 summer internships too.

The chance is within your grasp.
