Shanghai is one of the major cities in the region with the highest number of global and regional headquarters of multinational corporations. A total of 33 MSc students, participating in the three-day MSc Shanghai Career Trek from October 25-27, were able to visit and experience firsthand the vitality of nine multinational companies and headquarters in the city.
These immersive experiences provided behind-the-scenes and exceptional opportunities for the participants to engage with organizations, shadow professionals in the workplace, explore various career paths and company cultures, as well as network with our HKUST alumni in Shanghai.
We are truly honored to receive valuable support from our prestigious corporate partners in Shanghai and across various industries, including account consulting, management, consulting, finance, fintech, FMCG, retail, healthcare, technology, videogame, and more. They not only hosted our company visits but also supported our alumni and industry-sharing sessions. The company representatives and our HKUST alumni introduced their companies and cultures and shared their own career stories and campus recruitment opportunities. Some companies also hosted case interview workshops and provided face-to-face interview assessment opportunities for our MSc students.
We would like to sincerely thank our corporate partners for their efforts and valuable contributions to this career trek! They include Unilever, miHoYo, Johnson & Johnson, Adidas, Bain & Company, KPMG China, Capgemini, FNZ Group and TF Securities.
