Hey there!! I'm the product designer of Seedly before I switched to PM (: 1. I didn't attend both, but from what I know, GA's courses give you a good preliminary understanding of design thinking and they match you up with real organisations to apply these in real life. 2. Companies do consider internship positions for people with no product design background and have gone through the 3months GA course. I would say from a hiring perspective, someone with a 3m GA course + 6m internship is far more attractive than a 1 year Poly course. 3. No such thing as too old to switch!!! Also 27 is not that old haha. Some other tips, since you do not have any UIUX background yetF you might want to see if you want to focus on one aspect first, either UI or UX. cause both requires diff skill sets and if you spend that 3 months sharpening one, it'd prob be easier to get good at that one than to pick up both at the same time. Are you more interested in human behaviours, research and crafting user experience? Or are you more interested in coming up with user friendly solutions and creating beautiful designs? You can also read up more now and start picking up UI design skills, like creating prototypes on Figma for example. One tip that I always give beginners is, go to Pinterest, or dribble and find a UI design that you really like, then just copy it! It will help you with your design sensibility and hone your techniques. All the best and let me know if there are other ways I can help!

Hello! I understand the difficulty of taking the first step there’s so many different cards out there and so many strategies to read up on! I use 1. DBS Live Fresh (cashback) This one gives me about $20-40 cashback every month, as Long as u hit $400 for online purchase and $400 for paywave. Recommended if u don’t use cash much and shop online often! Also gave me $80 sign up bonus at that point of time. 2. AMEX Krisflyer Ascend (miles) 3. CITI premiermiles (miles) Signed up for these two because I had big purchases to make so I managed to get my worth from the sign up bonuses, I racked up loads of miles for this. BUT Citibank didn’t give me the miles even though I spent 10k with their card, got me really mad cause I wasted the potential bonus miles. If you care about customer service and ease of reaching out to them, AMEX is the place to go. I would not recommend Citibank cuz I had really bad experiences with them, you can read about it in my review here: https://seedly.sg/reviews/credit-cards/citi-premiermiles-visa-card?rid=7215&utmsource=reviewshare&utm_medium=internal Anyway if you would like to compare which credit card to get, can try out our credit card comparison tool! There are loads of community reviews, so hopefully can help you better make a decision. All the best man (: https://seedly.sg/reviews/credit-cards

Hello!!! From my experience, both Citi and AMEX clock miles for hospital bills. Let me share my Citi PremierMiles experience, I paid for my medical bills of about 7k with Citi PremierMiles, but bad thing is, if you did not declare this at the start upon registration for the card (that you want to pay annual fee), they will not give you those bonus miles!!!! It's really horrible cause after calling them they told me I cant get the bonus miles even if i wanted to pay for annual fee. I feel like I wasted my miles on this card! You can read an indepth description of my experience here: https://seedly.sg/reviews/credit-cards/citi-premiermiles-visa-card?rid=7215&utmsource=reviewshare&utm_medium=internal On the other hand, I had to pay for hospital bills a second time, and I signed up for an upgrade to AMEX ascend from my Krisflyer. This time, it was super fuss free, I got my 36k miles and their customer service was stellar. Can't advice you much on cashback but I think if there's first time sign up + bonus miles, miles confirm more worth it!

Hmm I got D for economics but from my own reasoning Demand for goods and services decreases - people choose to stay in instead of go out, reduction in group gatherings - worries bout recession causes people to go into a “saving” mentality - anything Related to the travel industry gonna have HUGE loss in demand (eg, food, travel tech companies, hotel, flights, tours etc) Inefficient workforce (lower output) - Govt are enforcing work from home/ halt of businesses to continue, and ofc lots of people are getting quarantined - manufacturing, retail, fnb sectors gets affected Result in loss of revenue for many companies, so they need to think of measures to cut cost - lay offs - less pay (eg some companies make workers take 3 months no pay leave) Which will result in people spending even less, and the cycle continues...

Hey! Is this your first card? For me the Live Fresh card is my base card because you get up to $20 cashback on online spend (total $400) and $20 cashback on paywave (total $400), I usually spend using these two methods so most months I can get $40 back. On top of that, for big ticket items like plane tickets or travel accoms I use another miles card to book!
