I enjoyed working on marketing campaigns and branding projects which allowed me to learned a lot. I get to meet different stakeholders for events and roadshows.

Management includes you in meetings and considers your feedback or opinions. Workplace culture generally is good with everyone being nice, helpful and welcoming.

I learnt data entry and helped with day to day activities in the clinic. The co workers at that place were very friendly and helpful. They helped me learn and provided me with a fun and conducive environment.
Workplace culture is good. Very helpful team. Manager are very caring and influential. HPB send Dental Therapist to various courses to keep up with the new trends.
Working at Health Promotion Board helped to open up my mind to the world. It taught me so many valuable lessons in and out of the office. Besides working with colleagues within the board itself, I had the opportunity to work with outside organisations and understood that good communication and teamwork are crucial for programmes to run smoothly. The workplace culture puts our well-being first and ensures that we have a good work/life balance by holding a lot of activities for colleagues and their family members to bond.
You get to work with many people from different ages,backgrounds and race . You also deal with real life situations where you must think quick and be patient with customers especially older ones . You learn that with different people you have to change the way you work , make a compromise, in order to get things going . In all it is a great work place with alot to learn and new friends to make.
Pros
Free lunch and paid lunch hours
Cons
Long hours
