● The human resource development program for dormitory residents gave me the opportunity to interact with working adults through lectures and workshops, which was a very valuable experience.
● Through the program, I was able to learn practical methods for discussions, brainstorming, and making presentations. It also helped me imagine what it would be like to work in society, which I hope will help me in my future job hunting.
