🚀 Connecting Industry & Academia: Sharing Insights at Asia Pacific University (APU)
Honored to have had the opportunity to speak with the bright, ambitious students at Asia Pacific University of Technology & Innovation (APU) 🎓✨
We had an engaging session diving deep into "Current Hiring Trends in IT Services & Digital Software Industry". It was inspiring to connect with over 50 future innovators specializing in AI, Computer Science, Software Engineering, and Data Analytics.
During the talk, we explored several key topics essential for aspiring tech professionals:
🔹 Inside ETC: Overview of our company culture, operations, and internship/career pathways.
🔹 Recruitment Expectations: What hiring managers really look for during interview stages and document submissions.
🔹 In-Demand Skills: Key technical and professional qualities needed to excel in today’s tech landscape.
🔹 Navigating Pitfalls: Common mistakes candidates make during recruitment and how to avoid them.
🔹 Practical Advice: Actionable steps fresh graduates can take right now to stand out in job placements.
It was truly a meaningful experience that took me back to when I was sitting in those exact same seats as a student—wondering what the future held and looking for direction. Being on the other side today made this session even more special.
A huge thank you to the organizing team for the warm invitation, seamless organization, and energetic participation.

The future of Malaysia’s tech industry is looking incredibly bright! 💡🚀
