An intern provides an extra set of resources that can often help the company to accomplish goals or speed up the projects, with the application of new knowledge and technology they have learnt from school, they can spark new ideas or solutions and for continuous improvement. It also provides an opportunity for our current employees to practice their mentorship skills, and also stay connected with them for their future employment consideration after they graduate.

Our learning programs are distinctively marked by an empowering belief that any individual has the power to unlock its potential and unleash the power to soar like wings on eagles. The underlying learning philosophy of “GOLF” that signifies the importance of empowering our people to gain work and life skills is what MahaChem wants to achieve.
