About Career Series Many people see their career as their lifetime’s greatest piece of work. It’s something that has developed over decades by overcoming challenges and obstacles. But where should we begin to kick- start our career? Where does the road to success start? Abraham Lincoln once said, “The best way to predict your future is to create it.” Our time is too limited to be intimidated by the obstacles we may fear, and we should focus on taking the first step instead. And in this entrepreneurial mindset we bring you BSU’s Career Series 2020. Career Series 2020 aims to provide participants with the knowledge and first-hand experience that help propel them into their career. It is about exposing oneself to areas of unfamiliarity in order to develop skills. Career Series 2020 offers an array of sub-functions to aid participants to achieve these goals. This includes workshops such as “What is Virtual Bank?” where we have invited WeLab to give us some insights regarding the Virtual Bank environment. Other sub-functions include interview workshops which will be focusing on how to perform well in video interviews. Wherever your goals may be, may Career Series 2020 set the stage for you.

Words From Chief Function Director Mr. LEUNG, HO FUNG THOMAS Marketing Officer The Business Students’ Union, HKUSTSU, Session 2019-2020 Carrying on the tradition of The Business Students’ Union, HKUSTSU of serving our members with diversified activities, we proudly present you our highlighted event, Career Series 2020. Through this function, we hope our members can be adorned with useful skills and knowledge of the business world. We have invited multiple companies from different industries to deliver a great variety of sub-functions, aiming at preparing our business students for their future career. In view of the current outbreak of coronavirus, sub-functions will be held online this year. Unfortunately, lessons are switched online but this should not stop us from learning new techniques and suiting up ourselves for the future. This year, we also include information and tips to help students adapt to the technology dominating world. This allows our students to be more flexible and confident in seeking for their best career option. Lastly, I must express my deepest gratitude to all supporting companies and honourable guests. I would also like to thank the Executive Committee and Function Directors for their assistance. It is my pleasure to serve our members and may I wish you all a delightful and fruitful experience in Career Series 2020. Road to Success 4
