   “Being yourself is not about showing yourself. It is about showing how you fit with the company”
2. Ms. Trang Dam – Branch Manager at Glints Vietnam
   “The most common mistake among candidates is to stand out solely in the Assessment Center round. The second common mistake is mocking too many case studies that eventually lower their creativity”
3. Mr. Nankishore Dunde – Associate General Manager at HCL Technologies
   “Focus on being the person who thinks outside the box, because that’s what companies truly value.”
4. Ms. Nguyen Bao Linh – Senior Human Resources Officer at Deloitte
   “When you start a job do you want a high salary or do you want to improve fast? Because when you start at a high salary, your increase rate may not be as high as people who have a humble start but proceed to gain promotion.”
