About the “IT – You Study, We Hire!” Campaign
Through a series of promotion activities jointly organised with local and multinational enterprises and the engineering faculties of local universities, the “IT – You Study, We Hire!” Campaign aims to let students and parents understand that the IT profession has a bright future, so as to attract students to choose IT programmes for their studies and the IT profession as their career of choice.
Major components of the Campaign include:
- Production of promotion videos with sharing on the development opportunities of the IT industry from Chief Executive Officers (CEO)/Chief Information Officers (CIO) and young IT practitioners of large enterprises. The promotion videos will be broadcast in relevant government websites and channels, school communities and social media; and
- Establishment of an information portal (i.e. the IT Career Role Models Platform) for sharing information on the career path of IT-related professions.
