Student Experience

Central Padel Nordic
Stockholm
Carl Lee, BA Year 4

To enrich my exchange journey, I have decided to take an internship programme in Sweden. I took up the role of Events Intern at Central Padel Nordic, a sports and events venue in Stockholm.

 

The major roles include proposing prospective events, facility management as well as event support. Not only did this internship allow me to explore and experience some of the tasks I have not been able to perform in Hong Kong, but also to learn about the working and living culture of Sweden. Any experience would be a good chance to learn. My learning towards this culture moved from secondary materials to studying and to hands-on immersive experiences. This made my learning more wholesome and holistic.

 

I am fortunate to have a trusting supervisor who allowed me to explore unfamiliar tasks. What is the most important lesson from this experience is to stay curious and be willing to try everything.

Young Talent GCE (Global Career Exploration) Internship Scheme
Beijing 
Pearl Lau, BA Year 3

Last summer I did an internship in Beijing in the Young Talent GCE Internship Scheme. During that month, I worked at Z-Park Enterprise Credit Promotion Association, a business organization established by the government to promote the idea of the credit system.

 

It was the first time I had been in touch with this type of company, and I was also really excited by the wide exposure to different tasks as a marketing intern. I wrote promotional articles for the Wechat company account, learned how to design the layout, and transcribed some official documents.

 

These first-hand experiences not only gave me a taste of the working life in Beijing, but more importantly boosted my courage and passion to explore more opportunities worldwide, and to be a person with a multicultural mindset.

As a BA(HDT) student, I am grateful for the opportunity to assist as a docent at the Virtually Versailles exhibition.

 

My digital humanities knowledge enabled me to promote the intersection of digital technologies and culture to the public. Leading tours and engaging with visitors enhanced my public speaking skills and allowed me to actively connect with audiences. This experience in the cultural industry was invaluable and complemented my 6- months of Art Basel internship, providing client-facing experience and promoting art and cultural events.

 

I strongly encourage you all to take the initiative and participate in different programs, as well as embrace trending digital technology skills to prepare for your future careers.
