FSDC successfully launched the Fireside Chat Programme which aimed to provide tertiary students in Hong Kong with free career coaching and high-touch interaction opportunities with young practitioners, who shared their personal experience in financial services industry, and tips for polishing CV and preparing for job interviews.
This event was fully supported by speakers of previous “Practitioner Speakers Series” talks, who nominated a junior practitioner (3-5 years of work experience) of their company or in their network to speak at the Fireside Chat Programme.
Our participants were fully engaged in discussion of all-round topics ranging from academic background, career aspiration and progression, work challenges and difficulties, job qualifications and industry insights. The event was well received with 100% agreement from students on usefulness for career planning, while on average more than 95% of them found it helpful to understand more about the respective sector.
For more information about his sharing and insights, please review the full video on YouTube.
