Meet our Summer Seeds

Joining Hang Seng Bank as Summer Seed is definitely a worthwhile investment in my career path. We had valuable opportunity to present to business heads towards the end of the Programme, where I shared the key deliverables and challenges during my internship, as well as insights to the Bank. The opinions from Summer Seeds are valued and we are provided with lots of support, resources and chances to shine.

My Summer Seed experience encourages me to speak up and express my thoughts proactively and confidently.

Summer Seed, 2017 Intake

Management Trainee, Wealth and Personal Banking, 2018 Intake

I joined the Summer Seed Programme attached in Corporate Banking department. During the 10-week Programme, I was empowered by Senior Management and had the opportunity to take up challenges and new initiatives. I enjoyed the supportive working culture so much that I decided to join the Commercial Banking Management Trainee Programme upon graduation.

The knowledge and experiences gained during the Summer Seed Programme certainly helped me adapt to the everchanging commercial world easier. The spirit of “keep challenging myself” learnt from the Summer Seed Programme encouraged me to take up a completely new role in Strategic Planning and Corporate Development after more than 3 years of Commercial Banking career. I am now involved in driving new initiatives for the Bank, and have the opportunity to participate in challenging projects.

Summer Seed Programme is a good start for students to start a professional banking career and there are many opportunities here at Hang Seng Bank waiting for you.
