  • Are there values that professionals exhibit that employers deemed as unfavourable?
  • What do you think of people who talk too much?
  • What are the considerations used in your decision making before accepting your 1st overseas role?
  • What if the role after the 1st overseas posting which we should plan for, does not exist in the company?

Career Success Stories

Every professional is likely to spend about 40 years in the employment market. In these 40 years, there will be mistakes made (hopefully small ones), lessons learnt, new habits formed and eventually, the everyday version of ourselves will become our best version everyday.

Above all, the stories we hear from others could be the gamechangers we need to give our career a new boost!
