Q&A with MTR Trainees
Kacy Chan
Assistant Leasing & Retail Innovation Manager
2021 Graduate Trainee
MTR has a very structured GT programme that provides tremendous exposure to fresh graduates. Lectures from experienced colleagues and site visits in the first few weeks of the programme are rewarding and have granted me a comprehensive overview of the MTR businesses. Colleagues here are friendly and willing to teach. I can’t wait to work with more talents and learn from one another!
Jason So
Construction Support Engineer - Civil
2021 Graduate Engineer
During my training at CWBU, I gained valuable insights into various departments, enhancing my understanding of our team's end-to-end delivery process for railway projects. In Scheme 'A' Training, I actively participated in designing a new railway project as a secondment to an infrastructure consultant. I handled responsibilities in station, ancillary building, and depot design, continuously enhancing my technical expertise in structural engineering. Collaborating with railway planning experts in an accelerated project broadened my understanding of railway projects and sharpened my strategic thinking skills. With the skills I've developed, I'm confident in successfully completing my training and pursuing Chartered Engineer status.
