"The most valuable networking and career-building opportunity I gained through Lingnan was attending the EY networking event, which secured me an extendable three-month Audit/Assurance internship for 2025. I also participated in HKIB’s Future Banking Bridging Programme, where I was elected as one of the 10 group leaders out of 300 participants. This led to an honorary nomination for Hang Seng Bank’s Job Shadowing Event, where I experienced a day in the life of an investment banker in Hong Kong. Other opportunities I joined include the HKTDC Trade Ambassador Programme and the ICAC Ambassadorship"

"I was selected as an intern at a local digital marketing firm through the Local Summer Internship Programme. During my internship, I assisted in strategic planning and analysis for businesses, products, and operations. My responsibilities included conducting market research to identify the latest trends, writing SEO-focused articles, and creating engaging social media posts. This role enhanced my analytical skills and creativity in marketing communications, and I am grateful for the guidance and positive feedback I received from my supervisors."

“I attended an amazing internship called the Youth Internship Programme at Wolong Region of Giant Panda National Park. During this time, we interacted closely with giant pandas, prepared their food, learned about them, and guided tourists. We also had the opportunity to climb mountains daily and encountered diverse plants and animals.  An unforgettable highlight was spotting a wild small panda in the forest. This experience reinforced my commitment to cherishing and protecting nature.Most importantly, I formed strong friendships with my teachers and colleagues.”

“Participating in the Joint Humanitarian Entrepreneurship Winter Academy was a profound experience for me. I traveled to the Philippines for this event, which provided me with insights into effectively integrating business innovation with social responsibility and how to apply them. Pitching a business proposal for a group of women affected by the Taal volcano eruption highlighted the strength and resilience of the community during tough times. It was wonderful to engage and work with local Philippine students, university staff, and our stakeholders. This journey demonstrated how entrepreneurship can make a difference by generating a positive influence.”
