Executive, Strategic Financial Relations Limited

After completion of the 4-year BJC studies at HSUHK, Amelia joined SPRG, a local financial PR group, as an executive in the HK team. Embarking on her first career, she found the business communication training she underwent in the BJC programme truly meaningful in triggering her enthusiasm to pursue a career in the financial PR profession. She still remembers those days when she was studying in BJC. Teachers spared no effort in teaching her and her fellow schoolmates, sharing with them the most updated industrial experience and practices and wholeheartedly training them to acquire essential practical skills required by the industry. Thanks to the useful training she received in BJC, she has now become well-equipped to cope with job routines such as writing press releases and consulting clients. She expressed heartfelt gratitude to the BJC teachers, who truly went out of their way to empower her to meet challenges and envision her career path.

Working at Hong Kong Economic Times Limited

Woody is grateful that during his four-year BJC study, he managed to find his career path. Before, he had no interests in the sophisticated financial news as he had not studied any business subjects in secondary school. After learning step-by-step the basics and doing well-planned practical exercises, he is now more able to handle financial information. After a precious internship opportunity at Cable TV, he realised that possessing both business knowledge and journalist skill-sets really helps sharpen his competitive edge in the job market.

He would like to express his deep gratitude to professors and lecturers for building close relationships with him, and giving him career advice even after graduation. He was encouraged by them and decided to sit for the Charted Financial Analyst (CFA) Programme examination as an advancement in his career.

“Do the thing you fear, conquer it and you may love it eventually,” he wishes to encourage all BJC schoolmates to grasp every opportunity to equip themselves with business and finance knowledge.

To Winnie, there were many unforgettable moments in her 4-year BJC life, like spending lots of quality time with her dear schoolmates, joining BJC Goodwill Ambassadors and workshops related to TV Production, News Anchoring and Radio, and so on.

She would like to give special thanks to Ms Jolly Wong and Ms Tracy Kwan, the current news anchors in Cable TV, who have taught her lots of skills regarding news stories presentation in the Anchoring Workshop provided by the School of Communication. Their precious work experience helped her a lot in developing her career.

She finds the BJC programme of HSMC very useful, which enables her to learn more about how to prepare financial news and enhances her communication skills.

Working at Hong Kong Cable Television Limited

It has been 2 years since George graduated from HSMC.  He chose to study journalism at HSMC a few years back, and it turned out to be one of the best choices he has ever made in his life. HSMC has always maintained close connection with the media, and during his second year of study, he received an internship opportunity at Cable TV, through which he started his career as a professional news anchor.

HSMC has trained him to look at things from different perspectives.  At the College, he was taught the required skills for being a professional journalist, such as newswriting, public speaking and doing research.  Under the guidance of devoted professors, he made great progress both professionally and academically.  “Being a news anchor is by no means an easy task, but it is so much easier if you are on a right path. In my case it is studying journalism at HSMC.”
