Background
Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU) is ranked among the world's top universities and home to world-class institutes including the National Institute of Education and S Rajaratnam School of International Studies.
NTU has always been at the forefront of empowering students through skills workshops, personalised career coaching, and career experiential programmes.
The challenge:
- Better connect and increase efficiencies for both employers and technology-savvy students
- Reduce printed collateral & carbon footprint as part of NTU's goal to achieve carbon neutrality by 2035
- Measure and track every stage of the graduate recruitment and engagement process
Solution
After discussions with the SeeMeCV development team, NTU's Career & Attachment Office (CAO) implemented Virtual Career Fairs — a first for a Singapore Higher Education Institute (HEI) at the time.
Customised features included:
- Live voice and video chat with employers
- One-click internship and job applications via digital résumés
- Access from anywhere — desktop or mobile
- Configurable booths to match corporate branding
- Bulk job uploads and real-time data analytics
Business Impact
NTU launched Singapore's first Virtual Career Fair for Higher Education, setting a new benchmark for graduate recruitment. Graduates could engage, apply for positions, and attend interviews on a single integrated platform — entirely virtually, without physical booth setup.
NTU saved significant resources for the CAO team and exhibitors — who could focus entirely on engaging with top graduates. Following this success, NTU committed to a subscription plan enabling multiple fairs university-wide throughout the year.
