![[GSIS CAREERS DAY 2019]
On Tuesday, May 14, GSIS, once again, had the pleasure of welcoming a mix of alumni and parents onto campus to give talks to our K09, K11, Y10 and Y12 students about the world of work and life after GSIS.
Our speakers, including our keynote speaker, Dr Susanne Theisen, represented different industries spanning between Marketing, Finance, Design, Journalism, Medicine, Law, Engineering, Consulting and Entrepreneurship. While some speakers represented the same industries, all of them had vastly differing insights into their own careers, showing our students that there is not a single set path to success, but that there can be bumps and turns along the way.
Overall this was a successful afternoon, with both students and speakers gaining valuable insights into the others mindset and aspirations.
A big thanks goes to all our speakers for taking the time out of their day to make a impact in the lives of our students!](https://scontent.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/s720x720/60575243_2203424929712466_8433017820106719232_o.jpg?_nc_cat=105&_nc_ht=scontent.xx&oh=edba310d647956d177a95d13ba12b2cf&oe=5D8FA3E2)
