Thank you for organising the Career Planning &
Management class for us and taking time off to share with us and
give us useful advice. It was indeed beneficial and I wish I could
have taken them earlier to better reap the benefits of it.

The competency based interview workshop is very
useful with applicable skills that can be used in the future. It
helps us to understand how interviews work, what type of questions
they will ask. This enables me to pre-empt and prepare before the
interview.

I enjoyed the case interview workshop and the main
learning point is how to be successful at a case interview and
certain guidelines to follow for this kind of interviews. The
speaker is clear and the structure of the delivery was good.

I enjoyed the practical investing workshop a lot. It
is one of the best workshops that I have attended. I personally
think the accumulator and the CDOs are the most useful. It is
because with the proper leverage through these tools that you can
earn exponentially but similarly if you fail to control, you will
also lose exponential amounts.

I would like to say a big thank-you for organizing
the fund management workshop! It has been a wonderful journey of 4
weeks and even though the time was short, the amount of knowledge
and exposure I have gained about the various aspects of the hedge
fund and private equity industry was simply invaluable and
priceless. I love the way which you brought in personal experiences
in the banking field and shared with us some tips and tricks in
securing an internship and jobs in the hedge fund and private equity
industries; they are really useful pointers to guide clueless souls
like us to work towards our elusive goals. You are a wonderful and
inspiring speaker and I would really hope that you could come back
to NUS for future workshops or talks. Hope we do get to reserve a
seat from you first before it’s snatched up! :)

I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate
the interview clinic. The interviewer I was assigned to was
excellent and she gave me some good feedback with specific areas of
improvement. I also appreciate the fact that she was open to giving
tips on how I should manage my interviews for different
functions/industries and draw parallels to my experience. The
interview clinic definitely exceeded my expectations - thanks to BIZ
Career Services for arranging the same.

It was a wonderful three day Applied Corporate
Finance workshop that you had conducted. It was indeed interesting
to understand how organizations viewed corporate finance especially
in FMCG industry. It was very interesting because academically only
financing decisions, mostly to do with capital structure, are
covered extensively under Corporate Finance. In your sessions it was
much more integrative, where Corporate finance encompassed things
that we studied in marketing electives (competitor analysis, impact
of promotion/advertising spending on sales, brand value, customer
behavior) and strategy electives (detailed SWOT analysis, porter's
five forces etc).

Our
one to one career counselling meeting and the discussion on my CV
was very helpful. You leveraged your experience to zero-in on the
recruiter perspective which I found invaluable. You communicated
well in terms of career challenges, back-up plan and opportunities
in today’s market place. Certainly keeping my options open and
getting more proactive on the job-search are more at the forefront
of my mind now. On a personal note, I am really grateful and
appreciative of the great work that BIZ Career Services has done.
