Why do you want to pursue a career in finance?

Following the heartbeat of the market thrills me and challenges me intellectually.

What makes you unique?

I know how to be a team player from my volunteer experiences. In June 2014, I prepared and coordinated 5 teams of volunteers to teach children who dropped out of school in western China and handled the responsibility of negotiating with education authorities and local schools.
