“In summer of 2017, I had a chance to work in the equity research department in China International Capital Corporation (CICC).
During my internship, I was involved in several different tasks.
For one, I am able to translate skills and projects experience I grabbed in class into the workplace.
In my undergraduate study, I am glad that I have a wonderful combination of academic and industry experience, which certainly help me to make a clear decision for my short term and long term career.
“I delightedly joined the team of Policy and Procedure in the Business Operation Management (BOM) Department in the Personal & and Business Banking Group.
Getting involved in different tasks in the Policy and Procedure team allowed me to understand the fast-paced operation of a bank in Hong Kong.
“During the second semester of my junior year (from January to May 2017), I spent four months with BDA Partners Hong Kong as an investment banking intern analyst, where I started my journey in investment banking career and had a lot fun with many memorable first-time experiences, including my first client meeting, first live M&A deal, first BBQ with colleagues, etc.
It was a rewarding and fruitful four-month journey.
Besides the project, I also assisted with other pitches, research and attended quite a few client meetings with managing directors to take notes, which is also one of my favorite parts in the internship.
I have been grateful for the great opportunity, which helps shape me as a dependable, perceptive and detail-oriented professional and gives me a wonderful culture experience.”
“I was at MarcPoint, a big data technology corporation providing digital marketing consultancy, as an Algorithm/Data Mining engineer in 2016, responsible for developing the similar product classification system.
MarcPoint initiated the project due to the increasing interest from many vendors on Taobao to understand the current market and its competitors.
The algorithm is implemented with three stages including learning low-dimensional data representation, calculating distances between items and training model ensembles.
“During the fall semester in 2016, I interned at Mercer, Hong Kong, in the Investment Advisory team.
Working in a consulting firm was challenging but concurrently rewarding since it was fortunate for me to participate in different genres of projects in which the learning curve was going steeper and steeper along my journey in Mercer.
Besides, I recognized that soft skills appear to be equally essential in the workplace, for example, teamwork, communication and interpersonal skills, since liaising with clients and collaborating with colleagues are our everyday language at work.
Last but not least, I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to all of my dearest colleagues in the Investment Advisory team as well as in Mercer for their continuous support and guidance throughout the past months.
