Afterwards I moved to work for an enterprise mobility\u00a0company, focusing on IT security which is where I am currently working now. The course that I studied at Sheffield Hallam made it possible to find a graduate job back in Malaysia and to reach where I am today. Coming back to Sheffield made me realise how quickly time flies and I am looking forward to exploring places in the UK which I didn&#8217;t have the chance to previously. I am especially looking forward to going to places such as Durham and Lincoln.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kimberly Boey<\/strong>, who also studied\u00a0BA Hon Business with E-Commerce and Marketing, said &#8220;When I went back to Malaysia, I did various jobs related to digital marketing and mobile advertising which are both rapidly developing areas in Malaysia. Afterwards, I spent two years working for an advertising network company focusing on sales and business development which I enjoyed. Coming back to Sheffield after four years, it doesn&#8217;t feel like it has been that long! I still remember all the places I used to go, and they are still there! There are also new places too and I have missed Sunday roasts in the UK, which you cannot get in Malaysia. I am looking forward to exploring the Peak District during my holiday here, as I want to explore the views and scenery of my favourite film, Pride and Prejudice.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Two of our\u00a0Tunku Abdul Rahman University College (TAR UC) students from 2012 intake recently returned to Sheffield to explore the place that they studied back in summer 2012.
