Join us! AsiaOne calling for apprentices under IMDA Story Lab programme

Worried that you can't get a job... because you have no experience... because you can't get a job? We're here to help you break the cycle.

mm2 Asia, which operates AsiaOne, is now accepting applications for apprentices under the Story Lab Apprenticeship (SLA) programme, an initiative developed by the Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA).

As part of the initiative, IMDA has partnered with mm2 Asia and other leading media companies to train fresh media professionals and create more "made-with-Singapore" content for the world.

Through an immersive 12-month-long programme and on-the-job learning, these apprentices will gain valuable exposure and experience in the media industry as well as grow their skill sets.
