ATTRACT AND NUTURE TALENT |
Attracting talent |
 |
Aside from identifying talented and
experienced professionals already working
in the industry, our effort on emerging young
talent focuses on collaboration with local
and international tertiary institutions,
social media platforms and career fairs. Singtel also operates strategic internship and other programmes
that offer valuable working experience. |
FY2012 saw our biggest intake for the Singtel Management
Associate Programme. Now in its fourth year, we recruited nine
top graduates with outstanding academic results and leadership
potential. The programme offers accelerated learning and
development opportunities such as cross-functional rotation,
active participation in projects and direct interaction with senior
management.
Since 2009, we have offered full scholarships and book prizes
to promising young undergraduates under the Singtel Group
Undergraduate Scholarship programme. More information can be
found in Chapter 8.
