SMU alumna Cheryl Tan decided to take up an internship in her final year of studies, delaying her graduation by six months, as she thought the internship opportunity in marketing would help her gain some experience and set her apart from her peers in her eventual job search. She was forced to put her job search on pause when the coronavirus pandemic hit Singapore, and is now an e-commerce trainee at home-grown jewellery retailer SK Jewellery for 12 months under the SGUnited Traineeships Programme.
