Here’s what made the experience so rewarding: ✨ Engaging with Industry Leaders: Speaking directly with recruiters and industry professionals gave me invaluable insights into what employers are looking for in today’s competitive job market. 📄 Instant Opportunities: Submitting my resume on the spot was such a seamless and empowering process—it felt like taking a direct step toward my future career. The event wasn’t just a career fair—it was a celebration of growth, potential, and endless opportunities! It reminded me of the importance of taking bold steps and making the most of every chance to connect with industry professionals. 🤝 Have you been to a career fair or similar event recently?

On April 20, 2024, Best Buddies Philippines hosted the 7th session of the Pre-Employment Program alongside Southstar Drug at Bayer Philippines. Centered on the application process, the participants learned multiple tips in preparing an application and the different avenues where they can apply for work. One of which is applying via LinkedIn, where our facilitator Karen Chien Rodriguez, MSW, gave a step-by-step discussion. Additionally, our participants learned how to prepare and make use of job fairs as an alternative option for applications. To give them this experience, we conducted a short sample job fair where they start from filling out their mock application to presenting themselves to different hiring managers. In this video, we revisit the learning session to show the progress of PEP. Hear from our partners, how inclusion has made a change for them and how it can change their workplace. We want to recognize our partners and sponsors who believes in creating an inclusive workplace, as they have given us unyielding support for the Pre-Employment Program. Together, we make waves for change. Looking forward to the next session in this journey of growth.

I had an incredible time at GRADUAN® ‘s Career Fair & Conference held at Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre today. While the event was primarily catered for fresh graduates, I gained so much valuable knowledge and inspiration for my own career path. Starting off with an inspiring session featuring wonderful speakers from Maybank, Mrs Cheryl Chan, Maya Anggraini, Janice Low and Choronay Choeun, here are some of the key takeaways & advices I gathered: 💌 Mistakes are part of growth—learn to rise from them. 💌 Building connections and networking is crucial—don’t hesitate to reach out. 💌 Celebrate the small wins—they help create momentum. 💌 Focus on developing and refining your skills & abilities. 💌 Be bold, brave, and open to taking risks—it’s the key to unlocking your potential. At the career fair, I had the privilege of meeting Tunku Izni Q. at L’Oréal’s booth. She shared valuable insights on the L’Oréal Student Ambassadorship Programme (L’Oréal Youth Trendsetters) and was such a pleasure to speak with! Overall, this was a truly enriching experience ✨ Here’s a short vlog of today! #graduan #careerfair

During Career fairs, there were some booths where I had meaningful conversations with recruiters: starting by introducing myself getting their name, and striking up conversations from an aspect of their firm I found interesting. Then some just told me to scan this QR code and drop their CV. When I received this prompt during last week’s GRADUAN® Career Fair at KL Convention Center last Sunday 26th May, I straight up lost interest, and I walked away. Why so? Just by the attitudes displayed by promoters in the booths alone, you can tell what sort of company culture they have, which traits of character they encourage or discourage in its employees, correlating to them treating future colleagues (us!) My most positive experiences visiting these numerous booths came from these recruiters treating prospective employers with sincerity, and a willingness to share and advise on career prospects. Some encouraged me to explore my own to discover what I wanted to do in their offered graduate programs. From what I learned talking with them, graduate programs do not look at university degrees anymore, what matters is passion and desire rather than qualification to receive a fresh graduate role. There is no need for an Economics or Finance degree to apply for a Banking or Digital Analyst Program anymore. Rather it is now the norm to learn on the spot, to fill up demand for the most crucial skills by training their employees. Hence their search for passionate people who have drives to learn and explore and determination to finish the job. If employers want to poach this type of talent, they should make efforts to fill them not as roles to fill up empty job positions but as a space where creative potential is vested and passion grows. This must start by treating prospective and current employees well, and they’ll soon return the favor. Employers are not entitled to employees' efforts if there’s no meaningful culture, no support or room to grow, to explore autonomously with guidance on their interests and passion. Of course, I should thank those who made an effort to give me a good first impression. Shoutout in particular to: Muhammad Hafizuddin Kamarruddin from Citi, Faizal M. Sudin from Bank Negara Malaysia, Chloe Chan from CIMB, Wilson Kang from L'Oréal, and Muhammad Noor Haq Bahari (an old friend!) from Khazanah Nasional Berhad. P.S: My friends told me that those from Toyota Malaysia, EPF Malaysia, and Maybank received them warmly aswell.
