Postgraduate students explore the hidden job market through dialogue at Connecting Talents Jun 2026

During the Question-and-Answer segment of the fireside chat at the Connecting Talents (CT) for Experienced Postgraduates event, held in the Quiet Area on Level 5 of the Li Ka Shing Library on 26 June 2026, postgraduate student Mr Avisenna Gusta, Master of IT in Business, engages in discussion with invited speaker Ricky Foo, Partner at Mercuri Urval. The exchange followed a session on “The Hidden Job Market: Opportunities You Won’t Find on LinkedIn,” where Mr Foo shared insights into how many sought-after career opportunities are secured through professional networks before they are publicly advertised. The interactive discussion allowed participants to seek practical career advice, deepen their understanding of networking strategies, and gain perspectives on the importance of building strong professional relationships to uncover opportunities and support long-term career development.
