Advice for students
For students who want to move forward or start their own business after graduation, Carol emphasized the importance of setting goals and learning from experiences. “Since you only live once, why not step out of your comfort zone to look for opportunities in life?” She encouraged students to stay persistent towards their goals, broaden their horizons and make efforts to set themselves up for success.
