Jonathan Lee is a third year undergraduate student concentrating in the Biomedical aspect of Lifesciences. He has a solid foundation in the field of Psychology, having done a Bachelors of Science in it while serving his National Service. Besides that academic achievement, he also developed discipline and perseverance having to juggle both studies as well as fulltime NS commitments.
His current degree in Lifesciences is no less remarkable. Choosing to broaden his horizons and way of thinking, he chose to take electives ranging from Philosophy, Sociology and Physics rather than concentrating narrowly in Biology. Jonathan also spent a semester on an exchange program with a university in Canada, further exposing him to different cultures and ways of life. The four months he spent in Canada taught him to be independent and resourceful, as well as to work well with people of other cultures. Besides Canadians, he also met and learnt from Hong Kongers, Fijians and Indians, something most Singaporeans have a chance to do. Jonathan has not neglected his chosen field however, doing many modules, over and above what is required, in general biology and biomedical science. He also has a great interest in laboratory work, having taken both level 2 experimental modules available in the department.
More holistically speaking, Jonathan is heavily involved in his Co-Curricular Activity as a small group leader, thus acquiring leadership skills. He also does altruistic work by serving in the local church. In the church, he serves as an Audio-Visual Aid technician, gaining patience, problem solving and analytical skills. He is in the committee for producing a newsletter targeted at youth, and this work as an editor has produced parsimonic qualities in him. He also has decision making skills and up to four years of experience heading the eight man team. He is capable of negotiating between opposing viewpoints to come up with a compromise mutually satisfactory to both sides. Jonathan has taught a group of youth for four years, cultivating a spirit of understanding and empathy with his young charges.

Hello Jonathan,
ReplyDeleteAn impressive biodata indeed! Pursuing an additional degree is something not many do but this just highlights your great interest to learn. In multi-national companies, good leadership roles are essential and employers seek people who are truely interested in the job and those who are keen to learn. From what I gather from your biodata, I reckon you fit the bill!

HY Jonathan ,

ReplyDeleteHi Jonathan
ReplyDeleteYou've got quite a wide variety of experiences in many areas, especially at church, and I'm sure that these will come in useful when you are looking for a job. :) However, I would like to clarify a point you made in your biodata - "this work as an editor has produced parsimonic qualities in him". By "parsimonic", do you actually mean parsimonious, which means being frugal? I think your point would come across clearer if you phrased it as "this work as an editor has further honed his writing skills and trained his attentiveness to details."
Nonetheless, it's a great biodata... all the best in your future endeavours!
Thank you meihui!
