Recognizing that many individuals simply need proper guidance to navigate their careers, I have actively engaged in initiatives and programs that aim to bridge the gap between education and the professional world in Indonesia. This document below will outline my contributions through two impactful endeavors:
The first one is Internnet - a non-profit organization dedicated to bridging Indonesian students and professionals with career opportunities, and the second one is The Cool Kids Next Door Podcast, a career-oriented show designed to inspire and guide fresh graduates, and career switchers.
Internnet offering 1-to-1 mentorship programs, professional development webinars, and access to exclusive opportunities, Internnet creates a platform to democratize career knowledge and resources. It runs Indonesia's largest career mentoring program, partnering with top institutions to engage exceptional Indonesian talents.
As a mentor during Internnet’s 4th and 5th waves, I provided career guidance to mentees, sharing insights and strategies to help them chart clear career paths. My mentorship included:
Helping mentees identify their strengths, interests, and potential career paths aligned with their goals.
Offering tailored advice on skill-building, certifications, and resources necessary for career growth.Conducted a comprehensive review of the existing organizational structure, identifying areas for improvement to support scalable growth.
Assisting mentees in building professional networks to enhance their exposure to real-world opportunities.
Through candid discussions with professionals, The Cool Kids Next Door provides an early roadmap for understanding various career paths, including their pros and cons, and practical advice for breaking into specific fields.
The ultimate goal is to empower listeners to understand, decide, learn, and eventually become the best versions of themselves in their chosen careers.
