On April 22, 2023, the Student Association (SA) organized a “Meeting with Professional” workshop at NSYSU campus with the attendance of four guest speakers from various industries and 20 IBMBA  & GHRM students. The workshop consisted of two main sections: General and Private sections. In the first section, guest speakers introduced themselves, their career and experiences. Then, they answered two common questions raised during the workshop “ What is your current job like?” and “Why did you choose this career?” After that, Mrs Claire - HRBP at Leading Recruitment Services (LRS) Consulting Firm gave a brief introduction about the headhunting industry.

Before moving to the second part, MC asked everyone to take group photos to celebrate the event and give certificates to guest speakers for their contribution to the workshop.

The second part was the Private consulting sector, which lasted around two hours. In this part, participants were divided into different rooms with consultants of their choice, Mrs. Claire - Human Resources industry, Mr. Justin - Technology industry, Mr. Dennie- Finance, and Mr. Yao - Foreign and Domestic Companies respectively. The private section was conducted one by one in a private room with an aim to bring opportunities for participants to ask private questions and personal career plans. Besides, the guest speakers also provided further explanation and delivered knowledge by drawing on the whiteboard, which helped participants understand easily.

At the end of the workshop, participants and guest speakers came back to the main room and answered questions if any. After having a quick survey at the workshop, most of the participants were satisfied with the private consulting sectors. However, they wished the first part, the general opening, could last longer so that they can know more about other guest speakers and their companies. Besides, SA also sent an online feedback survey to all guest speakers and participants to improve our future event. In short, the “ Meeting with Professionals” is a helpful and practical event for graduated students’ careers.
