Malaysian Yenyin Kwan on Chinese Diaspora History in Oslo and Power of Networking – S1E9

Malaysian Yenyin Kwan is currently working as a Marketing Coordinator at Huawei in Oslo, and is an entrepreneur focused on bridging cultures. She studied Chinese Studies at University of Oslo and wrote her master thesis on the long journey of Chinese immigrants in Oslo. In the podcast episode, Yenyin talked about her hardship of finding work opportunities after her graduation and highlighted some solutions to the cultural differences she noticed in Norway. Her volunteering work at Oslo Films from the South Festival, Nordic Startup Awards, Global Talent Career Fair, the Norwegian Festival of Literature and Norwegian Investment Forum helped her build a network that eventually led her to find a job. This made her believe in the power of networking by volunteering. Like what we do? Consider donating the price of a cup of coffee at www.ko-fi.com/theoslodesk to continue our podcast.
