Listen Later

Thinking about quitting your job… but without a backup plan? 🤔


Before you take the leap, you’ll want to hear this.


We sat with Pui Wah Loh, Former Director of the NTU Career & Attachment Office (CAO), a veteran with over 40 years of experience in employability, higher education, and career consulting. He has worked with thousands of graduates and professionals and now runs his own consultancy, keeping close to the pulse of the job market.


Get answers on:

- Is taking a career break riskier now than it was 10 years ago?

- Why “underemployment” might be a bigger issue than unemployment.

- How AI and changing industries are reshaping the roles we think are safe.

- The one factor that could make or break your return to the workforce after a break.


And the big question: *Is there ever a “right time” to quit without a plan?*


Don’t miss this — your next career move might depend on it.
