SMU alumna from Hong Kong working in Singapore: Ms Anna Shin Pui-hun
Q: What is your background and what did you study?
A: I was born in Hong Kong and am currently a Singapore permanent resident. I graduated in 2013 as a bachelor of business management (marketing, corporate communication) from Singapore Management University (SMU) and now work as a graduate fellow at the Ogilvy & Mather fellowship programme 2013.
Q: Why did you originally choose SMU?
A: It stood out as a university with a student-centred curriculum and I was attracted to apply for several reasons. Firstly, there are plenty of opportunities for overseas exposure. Secondly, you can take double majors from different schools. Smaller classes and a unique way of teaching mean SMU graduates are more outspoken and are “workforce ready”, so the university is well regarded by employers. There is a holistic selection process, which means all short-listed candidates go through the interview process – acceptance is not just dependent on A-level grades. And finally, SMU is conveniently located in the city centre.
