Poster
This poster includes all the contents that was given and mentioned during the talk. It's a poster that focuses on all things related to career development. A suggestion for this poster is to simplify the contents to increase readibility.
Extras
Prior to PPG's Industrial Talk, we had a meet & greet session for data engineering students. We had a trekking session in the UTM Recreational Forest. Here are some photos from the session and some additional photos from the talk!

Reflection
Overall, I gained a lot from both of the talks and what to expect from my when entering the workforce. All the insights and tips from the alumnis are very valuable and I will definitely keep them in mind whilst preparing for my career and my time here.
