Student Graduate
“As a fresh graduate with limited hands-on experience, I struggled to secure my first professional job. Fortunately, I was introduced to STUDY AND WORK, and that became a turning point in my career. With their industry knowledge and expertise, the team gave me valuable advice on how to position myself in the job market and helped me secure my dream job. What impressed me most was that they didn't simply match me with any available company. They took the time to understand my career goals, strengths and abilities, and then presented me with several suitable opportunities, clearly explaining the pros and cons of each. Before my interviews, I was well briefed about the companies, their workplace cultures, expectations and, importantly, their intention to potentially hire the right intern as a permanent employee. This preparation gave me a significant advantage and helped me approach the interviews with confidence. I eventually started as an intern and, after just three months, was offered a permanent position. Looking back, I'm glad I didn't spend months blindly applying for jobs without a clear understanding of the job market. Instead, I chose a smarter path by seeking guidance from people who understood the industry. STUDY AND WORK helped me spend less time seeking a career and more time building one.”
