A Day in the Life

8:00 AM

I start the day with a cup of Americano from our office’s coffee machine before checking my email to list down the key things to complete for the day.

10:00 AM

We have our SCP weekly meeting to raise issues and seek guidance on the strategic pieces to work on for the day. On a weekly basis, we also oversee meetings with senior managements to seek their buy-in on policies or initiatives, as well as reviews of programmes.

12:00 PM

I usually have lunch with my colleagues or batchmates. We’ll head out to the food court near the office and catch up over a scrumptious meal; I’ll typically have my favourite Kimchi Ramen!

2:00 PM

As a SCP officer, I am seldom at my desk, and am usually involved in meetings with other line divisions and counterparts from other ministries and agencies. We also conduct sharing sessions with international partners on IMDA’s role in architecting Singapore’s digital future.

6:00 PM

During pre-COVID days (we are trying to restart this now), we have our weekly session of Captain’s Ball. It feels great to exercise together and let loose after a long work day. These sessions have brought colleagues from various divisions within IMDA to bond better.

Yingxian obtained her Bachelor of Business from Nanyang Technological University (NTU) in 2018.
