What I'm looking for

I am looking for a dynamic role in HR where I can grow, learn, and contribute to team success.

I am a motivated and versatile International Relations and Politics graduate with hands-on experience in recruitment, customer service, education, and local government. My strong interpersonal, research, and communication skills have fueled my growing passion for Human Resources and Recruitment. I am consistently reliable, adaptable, and focused on contributing positively to team objectives while maintaining high standards of quality and productivity.

During my internship at MacGregor Black, I gained practical knowledge in candidate sourcing, job advertising, database management, and client engagement—experiences that confirmed my interest in building a career in recruitment. I thrive in fast-paced, people-focused environments where I can contribute to team success, support talent acquisition, and foster strong client and candidate relationships.

Bilingual in Mandarin and Cantonese, with professional proficiency in English, I bring a global perspective to human capital challenges. I am eager to grow within the recruitment industry, learn from professionals, and help individuals and organisations find the right match.
