| ATTRACT AND NURTURE TALENT |
We identify and engage emerging young talent through
collaboration with local and international tertiary institutions,
social media platforms and career fairs. Our strategic internship
and cadetship programmes offer direct and valuable exposure to
our working environment.
During the year, we selected six top graduates with outstanding
academic results and leadership potential to join the Singtel
Management Associate programme, now in its fourth year. They
enjoy accelerated learning and development opportunities such as
cross-functional rotation, active participation in projects and direct
interaction with senior management.
Since 2009, we offer full scholarships and book prizes to promising
young undergraduates under the Singtel Group Undergraduate
Scholarship programme.
Developing talent
We believe that an important way to attract and retain talent is
to promote continuous learning and develop skill sets that will
enhance our people's employability for a rewarding, long-term
career in Singtel.
Singtel adopts a holistic approach to learning and development
based on education, experience and relationships, tailored to suit
the needs of different staff segments. The relationship-based
development support is especially critical as it helps our people
build internal networks to facilitate continuous development.
We also sponsor our top talent for full-time master's degrees in
business or other specialist programmes at leading universities. |

Our training investment totalled S$10.38
million for FY10/11 (FY09/10: S$9 million),
and our people completed an average of 30
training hours (FY09/10: 32 hours).
Career development
Our people are encouraged to take charge of
their careers and discuss development plans
with their managers. Individual career development
planning is integrated into the performance
management cycle and reviewed regularly. Online
career development portals, toolkits, talks
and workshops further equip our people with
the resources to manage their careers.
