A  little background about myself, my name is Joshua Lim, 26. Most people  know me as the youngest Senior Executive Vice President of Fort   Financial or may have seen me on The Straits Times published on April   2015 & March 2016. 

Now I'm not saying this to show off or  anything. In fact, when I've first started out in poly, my grades were  pretty bad.  The only thing I knew was to go to the bank or the  financial institutes  as it pays well, unclear of what I actually like  doing. I did my due  diligence like everyone out there from researching  if the company is  reputable to selecting a job that is relevant to my  diploma/degree as  much as possible to build my resume & gain  experience.  Like you, I was hungry for success, I didn't want to just  be an  ordinary candidate that goes for interviews, I want my employers  to know  that I can be an asset to their company. I handpicked a few of  the so  called "reputable companies" cause initially I thought job  hopping would  help me rise through the ranks and get a better pay. Yes  it works to a  "certain extent" 

BUT 

Employers  probably have interviewed many equally highly qualified  candidates  before you, and they know for a fact that millennials won't  stay long  at their jobs (let's be honest, everyone is just eager to  build up  quick experiences and job hop to the next for a better pay)...  so why  would any manager or boss want to invest their time, heart and  soul  into mentoring you, if you're just going to be yet "another  executive"  to temporarily fill up the position till the next one comes  to take  over when you leave (let alone even consider giving you a pay  raise or  bonus)? 

So you'll probably end up with a starting pay of $2.5K  (maybe $3.2k  if you're lucky), slog longer hours at the "reputable  company" just to  get 1-2 years experience, and then maybe job hop to  another with a  "better resume" for a slightly higher increment of  $300+/- more. That was when I realized I had to find a place that  accelerates my  personal growth, a place that pushes me to my limits  every single day. A  place where my hard work & efforts will be  acknowledged & recognized.

WHY JOIN US?

In  about 3 years+ I have won multiple awards, as seen on The Straits   Times on April 2015 or March 2016/2017. No, it wasn't easy, but I have a   strong desire to succeed, a craving that I need to quench, which is  the  main driving force of why I wake up early, the reason why I go to   office so willingly. Yet it doesn't feel like I am working, because its   fun & most importantly, satisfying.

Currently I am leading a  group of like-minded driven individuals towards  our bigger end-game.  Culture & working environment is important to  me, I hate politics  & we can't afford dead weights pulling us back. I  have groomed  & mentored 3 managers & 3 associate managers  personally &  they are leading their own units right now! We plan to  expand &  strive toward even BIGGER goals this 2017.

Listen... if that's  what you truly want - to accelerate your career  growth and get the kind  of wealth that your peers can only dream of (and  I'm talking about  achieving all these within the next 2-3 years)... and  if you have the  hunger to grow and become one of the top in the finance  industry...

Then you definitely don't want to miss out on this opportunity to get explosive growth for your career when you join my team.

"In  just 3 months into joining Josh's team, I was earning a stable  $6,000+  each month, to comfortably pay for my school fees and to repay  my  parents. Even my peers who graduated from university the same time as   me wasn't earning as much. Plus, I didn't have much experience nor   knowledge, but Joshua's coaching has propelled me forward tremendously   not just career wise but also my personal growth

Finding passion  and enjoying my work is most important to me. I've often  heard of how  my friends hate their jobs or are waiting for their chance  to quit for a  better opportunity... but in Josh's team, you'll never  find that kind  of sentiments in Josh's team, simply because everyone are  striving  towards the same goal with the same kind of drive and spirit  that  pushes one another in achieving results that almost defy our own   beliefs."

"I've  been a piano teacher over the past 6 years as i have a  DipABRSM and  graduated from School of the Arts. As most would think,  teaching can be  an extremely stable, sustainable, lifetime job. Most  people wouldn't  understand how I feel unless they experience how  stagnant it actually  is.  As the only child, i was also well aware that i  would have to one  day be responsible for taking care of my parents  through their  retirement on my own. With that in mind, i decided to take  that leap of  faith.

The one thing that drew me to this career, is the fact  that i can get rewarded for every bit of sincere hard work put in for  every person i  meet. It is pretty much similar to opening your own  business. Having met  Joshua and his team has taught me the fact that  nothing is unattainable  as long as you put in your 100% effort and soul  into it. The determination, the right skill sets, having the  opportunity to  meet people from all walks of life is not something that  just any  ordinary career can offer. Never have i once turned back to  question my  decision joining Joshua. He taught me many invaluable  techniques that  you won't be able to learn from those so-called  experts."
