Chevening is looking for individuals with strong professional relationship-building skills, who will engage with the Chevening community and influence and lead others in their chosen profession.
My profession as a Freelancer and a student led me to start making networks. When I was President at the Proclub Telkom University, a Student Incubator that focused on Software Development and Competition, I had opportunities to become lead on several programs, one of them is Teknofest a Recruitment and Seminar Program for Proclub's candidate members. In this program, I learned about Team Management, Project Management, and Marketing. I also was able to connect with experts from the IT Industry in Indonesia, especially from Microsoft Indonesia, Traveloka, Tokopedia, and Bukalapak which are some of the biggest IT companies. I got contacts with dozens of alumni from this Community and some of them offered me a freelance job and willing to become my mentors to help me pursue the IT Career.
Another networking experience comes from 1000Startup Digital, where I was able to learn many skills to build Startups, which gave us support to develop our character and knowledge as a startup founder. Thanks to our team's great effort, they offered us to incubate our startup, so they will coach us every week to make sure have significant progress. Unfortunately, we failed to secure the funding and we decided end the journey there. But, the community has become one of the biggest impacts on my product management journey. It not only shaped me with great product skills but also I find my "people". People who are enthusiastic about solving human problems through Business and Digital Products. We are still connected with some people by joining some hackathon competitions, to strengthen our skills and widen our networking in product management.
3 Years After I graduated, inspired by how Proclub and 1000StartupDigital had a great impact on my professional career, I decided to start a Community Called 1on1Buddy. A mentorship platform linking students, fresh graduates, and career shifters with IT Industry mentors. With Over 20 sessions in the first month, 1on1Buddy has facilitated mentoring sessions to help with the career development of many mentees. Some of them successfully find their desired jobs. This Community not only gave me the skill to build and manage a community but also I had an opportunity to become a speaker on campus event, which expand my network significantly.
As Chevening Scholar, I'm eager to contribute with my skill and experience to the Chevening network. As my career plan is to contribute to The Indonesia Blue Economy Roadmap, I will participate in any kind of collaboration with other Chevening that will grow my network and have an impact on Indonesia's blue economy.
