WHAT THEY THINK ABOUT US
“I have been studying Japanese major at Foreign Language Specialized High School (FLSS). My initial goal was to study a popular major in Japanese like Marketing, in Japan.
I like to draw. I usually draw on my free time. I keep most of my drawings. Sometimes, I think I can choose a job relating to my hobby. That’s all I think. In 2008, it had been my first time knowing about career and major orientation counselling service at PAC. I had no longer doubted my ability, and confidently chose to major in Game Development and Interactive Design which was completely new to me 05 years ago. PAC consultant guided me to apply for schools in many groups of countries, and the final decision broke my prejudice and made me satisfied with this unexpected choice. I chose America as a place to pursue my major. With an in-depth consultation, this is not only a STEM major at a School of Art and Architecture, but also is a major bringing the opportunity to work in the US after graduation. Currently, I have chosen Epic Games to work in the US after being offered by many AI game development recruiters. I am quite satisfied with what I have like a good salary, a lot of experiences and a great preparation for the future. I just want to say that I never thought I would be invited by Epic Games and thought I would choose a game related major, …”

At first, the prospect of studying abroad was a bit scary to me as I completely had no idea of how to prepare the application, what major to study and what career to pursue after college. Then PAC’s counseling services helped ease things off. Based on the outcome of comprehensive career orientation tests and with PAC counsel, I could choose some universities and majors which were best fit for me. PAC counselors works with high professionalism and sincere dedication. My counselor didn’t mind staying up late till 01 a.m to instruct me to complete the application and register term subjects most wisely. Furthermore, PAC organized several workshops where other PACers and honored guests were invited to share experience and essential tips for a successful life of studying abroad. I found the sharing extremely useful for me when I started my study in Canada. Even now, I often receive continuous support from PAC counselors with wise advice for both study and life matters, which does facilitate my integration in the school and community. I totally trusted PAC services and PAC counselors for their professional work manners and sincerely dedicated support during the time I worked with them.

I’d almost had no plans for my study pathway or a future career until I worked with PAC Group. With dedicated consultancy from PAC Group, especially from Ms. Thuy, I have realised what would be the best-fit careers for me which are matching with my career interests and personal strengths. Apart from supporting me in career orientation, Ms, Thuy also gave me valuable pieces of advice on effective learning methods and how to identify and boost my personal strengths. Through various reliable tests, I have gained further understanding of myself. The professional and dedicated support and guidance that I received during the time with PAC group is highly appreciated. In future, I do hope that I can have further opportunities to work with PAC.

I’m Pham Gia Khoi, a current student of Health Management at the University of Cologne, Germany. I used the career orientation service of PAC Group 2 years ago.
Before working with PAC, I had been already aware of my interests, strengthes and weaknesses but I still had no clear orientation of what the future pathway should be.
Then several talks with PAC on career orientation enable me to have a bigger and better picture of best-fit careers for me. Now looking back, what I appreciated and acknowledged was that the support from PAC has helped me to identify a career matching with my interests and capacities.
While I encounter certain difficulties with a heavy amount of study work at university, especially in German language, I feel more assured with my career choice. The confidence of my choice and interests in what I am doing has thus encouraged me to try better in the future.
I’m totally satisfied with the experience of using PAC Group’s career orientation service. They were helpful and very professional with what they were doing at best in order to produce the most reliable and precise outcome of career orientation process. I still keep in touch with PAC for personal greeting and continued support

"At first, I had no intention of studying abroad at the high school level because I had just passed an extremely tough transferring exam. For that reason, I started the applying process with much hesitation and difficulties. Moreover, I was such a huge procrastinator to a long list of to-do-tasks in preparing for the school application that sometimes I almost gave up. However, with PAC’s great help and highly professional and experienced guidance, I gained amazing achievements that I could have never thought of during days of refining details in my portfolio, of which the most special success was the Global Citizenship Scholarship from Ross School having been granted to a Vietnamese student the first time ever."
