Hi all, there’s one more year till I graduate from university. I’m unsure of how I should make use of my 2 months break. I am still exploring which industry I want to work when I graduate.

Is there any advice on what types of internship is good for the resume and my experience? (e.g. Banking or Marketing). Is there any course/skill that you would recommend me to learn during my holidays?

Hello, it depends on your current course of study and the kind of jobs you are interested in.

If the jobs you are interested in are very specialized, then it is not very useful to do a general internship. It won't set you apart from the other candidates.

E.g. Applying for a technical role when you don't have any technical background.

Read the job descriptions of the roles that interest you, and from there you can determine what are the skills that employers are looking out for.

Hi there, I would definitely recommend getting some certification on the side. It has a lower commitment and you get to enjoy the holiday break. Perhaps you can chart what kind of employment you are keen on and perhaps use the time to connect with like-minded people or find mentors.

Hi I am a NSF, gonna work a year then study uni. I have $2k in SSB and $5.5k in SAYE for this 2 years and still contributing every month, also I have Posb Invest saver. What else should I Invest in? I have 5.5k left and I don’t know what to do?

Hi guys, I am a 24 year old about to graduate from university in a few months. I worked out my finances and estimate that I would be able to set aside $11K per year for investment?

Hi, I have 2 more years of university to go (graduating in 2023). Based on my calculations (assuming no income for the next 1.5- 2 years), when should I invest into CSPX? I can only afford 5units.

I'm currently Year 2 in university and my peers are already investing and I feel like I'm lagging behind them because I'm not investing. I do want to be rich but is investing for everyone?

When June 2 comes and Circuit Breaker ends, are you still working from home or would you have to return to the office? I'm not looking forward to it, wondering if I'm the only one feeling so?
