When jobs want you to have 10 years of work experience before the age of 22
It's the harsh truth. A prospective employer will always look favourably upon those with work experience. Work experience also helps you differentiate yourself, an invaluable advantage when the competition for jobs is so fierce.
Even though it's a stretch to gain 10 years of experience by 22, there's a way you can overtake your peers and gain at least 2 years of working experience (with a renowned bachelor degree) by the time they graduate. Many have taken this fast-track path to gain an unfair advantage.
But don't take our word for it, hear from our graduates.
"Pursuing a one-year diploma programme and a 16-month degree programme at PSB Academy helped me to start working earlier than my peers and gave me more time to explore different jobs before I settle on something I am comfortable with. What's more, the degree in business and marketing I took is awarded by reputable Coventry University. The programme is very focused, and prepares me well for my first job."
Joshua Gan, Ship Agent at Sinokor Bulk Pte Ltd
Bachelor of Arts with Honours in Business and Marketing, Coventry University
"The fast track route PSB Academy provided allowed me to graduate quicker and enter the workforce sooner to gain experiences. Currently in the working world, experience is highly sought after, so its always great to start early. Furthermore, La Trobe University is renowned for its research field which is an essential component of Biomedical Science - and PSB Academy has a conducive environment for students to practice researching skills/techniques."
Fatin Insyirah Binte Fadil, Clinical Research Technician at Lily-NUS Clinical Pharmacology
Bachelor of Biomedical Science, La Trobe University

Not only did they explain the theories, the lecturers exemplify and relate to real-world applications to make the lectures much livelier.
