A warm start
“Linda is a very warm-hearted and friendly mentor. She definitely has helped me to adapt and has enriched my exchange time! She offered me a ride to home after I arrived Sydney and invited me to join HKUAA New South Wales Chapter Annual Meeting where I met many HKU senior alumni and also connected with other HKU students on exchange in Sydney. This gave me a heartwarming feeling at the start of the exchange.
I am a student studying finance and Linda kindly invited me to visit her firm and introduced me the working environment of an investment bank. This gave me my first impression of investment banking, which encouraged me to work harder for my future career!” Deng Xiaomeng (BAcc&Fin Year 2)
Ivan Siu (BEcon&Fin Year 2) echoed Xiaomeng’s words: “She also took me to her company for a firm visit. It was a great opportunity for me to get an in-depth understanding of the actual working environment in Australia and know more about the workplace cultural differences between Hong Kong and Australia.”
Mentor in New South Wales, Australia since 2013: Ms Linda Tang
Outgoing Exchange Mentees (2016-17): Deng Xiaomeng and Ivan Siu
