Past Events

The final competitions of the Pitch Perfect Programme, organized by YEC, took place at the Chamber on 30 May. After five months of activities including training sessions, company visits and mentorship, the student participants reached the competition stage. Seven winners were selected – one from each sponsor company -- to advance to the final round, which involved a group interview for a hypothetical job. All of the winners were awarded HKGCC Student Membership for one year, which gives them the opportunity to further their careers, as well as cash prizes.

Jason Cheung was selected as overall Champion of the programme by the judges of the final competition. The prize includes serving as Chamber Student Ambassador, and also an additional HK$10,000 in cash, as well as the chance to spend a day job-shadowing Eric Fok, Vice President of Fok Ying Tung Group and Vice Chairman of Hong Kong Football Association.

More than 70 students attended the first training session of the Pitch Perfect Programme at the Chamber on 3 November, officially kick-starting this programme organized by our Young Executives Club. Olivia Kung, Vice Chairman of YEC, and CK Lee, Managing Director, C K Lee & Associates, shared some practical tips on writing resumes, preparing for interviews and how to present yourself in the workplace. A number of other YEC members also attended the event to share some of their own career experiences with the students, as part of their role as mentors of the Programme.
