It’s no secret that it’s been rather difficult for Singaporeans to gain jobs or move forward in their careers thanks to Covid-19, among many other reasons. However, where there’s will, there’s always a way. Whether we’re learning to improve ourselves or to apply the skills learned to a job, it’s important that we keep learning! It is never too late to learn new skills and increase our knowledge for employability and of course, for ourselves.
