More than half of today's workforce will need to develop new skills in the next three years to keep up. Who are the ones that are at risk of becoming obsolete?
Join Ms Linda Ong, Director, NBS Undergraduate Career Services, and her panellists, as they discuss hot topics such as job trends and technological developments affecting the future of employment.
