The self-source internship route: Presentation by Cheong Tong Pei

AY2014/15 Internship briefing

A second internship talk for AY2014/15 was organized in January 2015 for those who missed the first round back in November 2014.

Final year Vis Com student Cheong Tong Pei was invited to share with everyone his experiences of self-sourcing his own placement. Tong Pei was featured a while ago in one of our blogpost. He enlightened a roomful of potential student interns, all hungry to get a taste of the real world experience! Useful pointers were presented from how to go about looking for internship opportunities to what students should do and keep in mind when preparing for the big interview!
