The NUS Business School Global Alumni Network Office (GANO) regularly organizes activities to reach out to and engage both student body and alumni community. These range from formal events such as industry talks and seminars to informal ones such as networking sessions and movie gatherings.
GANO Helping Hand Series 2009
In response to the economic downturn and unprecedented tough job market, NUS Business School Global Alumni Network Office (GANO) quickly launched a series of initiatives in January 2009 to offer support for our Alumni  to ride out this challenging period.
GANO tied up with recruitment firms to source for relevant job openings for PMET alumni. In addition, the office also engaged experience career counselors who offered career guidance services to alumni. GANO also initiated an Industry Advisor Network, getting alumni who are leaders in their respective fields and industry to volunteer their advice and networks to fellow alumni.
The helping hand series has been extremely well received by affected PMET and it is still on-going on a monthly basis.
