"What makes ABE alumni stand out: they are able to use their knowledge and learnings in working life in terms of communications, teamwork, professionalism and strategic thinking."

Su Lai Yee Phyo employs many ABE alumni in her team and she feels they bring passion and proactive approach to the organisation.

KBZ Bank (established in 1994) is the number one leading bank organisation in Myanmar with over 18,000 employees and 500 Branches. Well known for KBZPay E-Wallet with 10-million users nationwide, it is now the number 1 mobile wallet with 200 transactions per second.

To provide the best service eco-system for users, KBZPay has expanded an e-commerce platform called “KBZPay Market” for its users which was launched last year. KBZPay Market was launched as a marketplace for all the merchants and serves various categories to meet customers' daily essential needs with the best prices.

"We are working as a category key account team managing hundreds of merchants in terms of onboarding and nurturing, expanding categories, pricing strategies, engaging content and monthly promotions campaigns.

We currently have very few ABE alumni working with us as category specialists mainly responsible for key accounting for the merchants and negotiating offers for customers. We hired them back at the end of 2021 and we're now almost hitting a year of working together. We have noticed that they are very active and clever in approaching merchants, with great communication skills, humble, bold and patient.

What makes ABE alumni stand out: they are able to use their knowledge and learning in working life in terms of communications, teamwork, professionalism and strategic thinking.  I have noticed they are particularly strong with communications and they are results orientated."
