GPGC makes every effort in connecting our current students and alumni. We organize Alumni Day and Career Development Talks every year since 2016, and now it has become one of the most memorable traditions of the programme. This year GPGC co-organized the GPGC & MPUP Alumni Day & Career Development Talks with the MSSc Programme in Public Policy (MPUP) in the form of webinar via Zoom on 6 March 2021 (Sat).

Six alumni from the two programmes, including Mr. Luyao LIN (GPGC), Ms. Xinchun WU (GPGC), Mr. Haowen YAN (GPGC), Mr. Dachuan YANG (GPGC), Ms. Yawen YANG (GPGC) and Ms. Emma KUANG (MPUP), were invited to share about their career planning on the Alumni Day. As the alumni are currently working in different fields, ranging from the Internet, Finance, Consumer Goods & Retail, Media, Think Tank to the Government, each of them had shed light on their unique job search experience along with practical tips on preparation for the recruitment process respectively.

In addition to understanding the career prospects in a wide range of sectors, students benefited a great deal from the predecessors’ advice on a growth mindset and attitude which are key qualities to successful career development.
