CLL Systems recently visited Asia Pacific University (APU) to share real-world insights with students getting ready to step into the tech industry.
Our Director, Craig Chin, delivered an energizing session titled “Wired for Growth: From Server Rooms to Strategy Rooms.” Drawing from his own journey, Craig spoke about the shift from technical roles to business leadership, the realities of building a tech career, and why certifications alone aren’t enough.
Key takeaways for future tech leaders:
- Ask questions—curiosity opens doors.
- Simplify the complex—impact comes from clarity.
- Start building your network early.
- Careers aren’t ladders—they’re journeys.
The session was lively, with students engaging actively and asking thoughtful questions. One of our own team members—an APU alum—shared how his own journey began with a simple mindset: “Start where you are, stay curious, and keep learning.”
As part of our ongoing efforts to attract the right talent, we see engagements like this as more than just a visit. It’s our way of helping future graduates understand what employers really look for—practical skills, adaptability, and a willingness to grow. We’re excited to keep connecting with students and sharing the career potential within CLL Systems.
