Industry Expert Talk: Apple Inc

This week, we had the pleasure of hosting Jason Chang from Apple Inc as part of our Industry Expert Talk series. Jason has been an Operations Project Manager in the New Product Introduction (NPI) division at Apple Inc. since 2017. Before that, he worked in similar roles at Foxconn and Lenovo, accumulating over 17 years of experience in the tech industry.

During his talk, Jason shared his educational and career journey, highlighting how attending a top university opened the doors to opportunities at Apple and other leading companies. He then walked students through the complex design and assembly processes that every product must go through in the production line, emphasising the rigorous quality control that accompanies every new product launch.

In his closing advice, Jason encouraged students to embrace lifelong learning. He humorously pointed out that even while scrolling through TikTok, it’s essential to balance entertainment with learning, as keeping your mind engaged can bring lifelong benefits.

During the Q&A session, many students expressed great interest in the tech industry, asking Jason a range of fascinating questions. Some even joked about future job prospects and salary expectations at Apple. We’re incredibly grateful to Jason for his insightful presentation—what an impressive session!
