"Willingness to learn and to be open for the opportunities”. This is my inspiration while seeking employment during the AIT Career Fair. As a fresh graduate with little to no work experience, one of the hardest parts was deciding how and where to start my career. I saw the placement from Essilor Luxottica about the STEM Graduate Program, which I found interesting because the company gave me an international career opportunity as a fresh graduate to develop both technical and managerial skills. I applied for this placement hoping to be part of the company, and after numerous individual and group interviews, I was successfully hired by Essilor Luxottica. The company helped me develop my long-term career goals, gain experience while working with experts, and make connections with individuals around the world.
I am very grateful and honored to be part of Essilor Luxottica, and I am thankful for the AIT Career Fair for assisting and providing career opportunities to us students of AIT.

I learned about the Management Associate Program at Prudential Life Assurance during the AIT Career Fair held in March 2023. I immediately applied by submitting my CV through Prudential’s LinkedIn opening. I was invited to take an online aptitude test and a video interview as part of the selection process. The next stage involved a whole-day assessment wherein I joined 30 other candidates from various universities in Bangkok. The assessment comprised several rounds, including a group case study and an individual case presentation. I successfully navigated each round and was selected for the prestigious program. This happened a few weeks before my graduation ceremony in May. In the next 24 months, I will be rotated through various departments at Prudential while gaining valuable insights into different facets of their operations. I firmly believe that this rotational program will broaden my horizons and provide me with a solid foundation in management and leadership.
I would like to extend special thanks to my professors and my family for their guidance and support throughout my academic and professional journey. Their teachings and mentorship have played a vital role in shaping my knowledge and skills, which ultimately contributed to my success in securing this opportunity. Also, I am grateful to the AIT Career Center for their continuous efforts in connecting students with remarkable opportunities.

I am thankful to AIT Career Center for organizing a Career Talk with TEAM Group of companies which paved the way for my journey with TEAM. It was a great opportunity to meet Dr. Saratchai Ongprasert, the head of Advanced Technology Center of TEAM who was impressed with my master’s thesis on Building Information Modeling (BIM). After a few rounds of interviews, I was selected as a R&D Engineer for their Advanced Technology Center.
It is a great opportunity be a part of TEAM. The guidance of my advisers headed by Dr. Bonaventura Hadikusumo at the department of CEIM, AIT was a great motivation.
