Back to Life: Internship #1

New chapter of life~

Hello, the blog has been rusty for 10 months, and now it is time to rejuvenate this blog! ;)

This week is the third week of Industry Immersion Module, aka internship in groups working for specific projects.

Entering from second year to third year, all of us are on the path to working world. I have been working in Taylor's Education Group, under Group Human Resource department for the past 2 weeks at Leisure Commerce Square. Audery, Li Yin, Theresa and I are working on a HR project about graduate employer branding. For now, we have completed the first stage, which is to identify the best 5 practices of corporates enhancing their graduate employer brands. At the end of the day, TEG aims to be one of the top companies where graduates are eager to join this education group.

After our presentation to both company supervisors and VP of Group HR in TEG, Miss Janet, it has been pretty chilling for the past 2 days. We have rewarded ourselves with some scrumptious food (Sushi Zanmai & BeLohas Vegetarian Food), yum yumm. On top of this, we are working on a side project related to UKEC as well.

Interning in TEG, all interns are to participate in community service learning. Still remembering, last Friday, our Dean of Business School briefed us on this and shared her life journey with us. It is truly inspiring on how she grew up from a normal family, got scholarship to Australia all the way to Chartered Accountant and worked at the city with the fastest pace- New York. At the end of the day, she found out that, her living purpose is related to humanity and this is what makes her life meaningful. And this also shows, the higher you go, the lower you need to bow. :')

All interns are divided into 2 groups, sales and awareness for this one NGO- United Voice. It is a self-advocacy society where they aim to ensure the lives of persons with learning disabilities are given the rights to education, employability, living and be respected as individuals. I am in the sales team and supposed to increase their collateral sales by 80%.

Hence, today, I designed a poster for this! It is an accomplishment unlocked because for the first time, I have used this App- paint.net to edit photo! The outcome is pretty nice to see, and the purpose and overall idea of the poster is to hopefully convey the right messages. Nonetheless, this is a good try & start in designing.

It is time to go home & more excitement is yet to come ;)
