PRE DEPARTURE TRAVEL ASSISTANCE offered:
FLIGHT TICKET BOOKING
Glinks overseas education consultants ensure that there is no need to worry about travelling abroad . The first item in the pre-departure checklist is booking the flight. This can be a confusing experience as there are many flights available, but choosing the best one may require expertise. Our experienced counsellors provide all the information about suitable flight routes and the best deals available in terms of baggage allowance, layover time and duration.
SIM CARD
Glinks consultants are focused on helping you make a smooth transition from your own country to the new one. We take care of all documentation processes and requirements, starting with selecting the right international SIM card and telecom service provider suitable for your device. We take care of the initial application for choosing the right plan, followed by acquiring the SIM card and giving it to you in hand before your flight. We ensure that students who reside in remote locations receive their SIM cards either at their new address on arrival, or at the port of entry.
BANK ACCOUNT
When opting to study abroad for the first time, it is important to open a foreign bank account to take care of all the daily expenses. Glinks consultants provide all the important documents required to open a bank account as an international student. We apply on behalf of the students and submit the necessary documents before their flight to ensure there are no delays.
NETWORKING
Studying abroad is not only a great opportunity to level up in academics, but also gives one a chance to build a wide network of contacts with people from diverse ethnicities. It is also important to connect with supervisors from different fields of studies who can help you build a successful career.
A great way to initiate a healthy networking process is by getting in touch with the alumni of the institution and attending on-campus career fairs and other networking events. By doing this, students will be able to establish contacts with like-minded people from different backgrounds. Glinks career counsellors will invite you to participate in special networking sessions organised by our team for students going to the same institution. The main purpose of holding such sessions is to build bridges between potential classmates and give them an opportunity to break the ice before getting to know each other on campus.
Networking is a valuable skill that can help a student take his/her career graph to a whole new level. In an increasingly globalised workforce, it’s useful to express what sets one apart from the crowd when connecting with people who share similar experiences and professional journeys. It is also important to have a clear idea of what one’s ambitions truly are.
Take some time out and ask yourself what you’re hoping to gain from a networking conversation, what your long-term career goals are and what kind of help you need to fulfil them. This will narrow your search down to the right people you need to contact and consult, while giving you time to build a network before landing up in a new country.
