1. Creating a Gmail Account
1. Creating a Gmail Account
We insist you create a professional e-mail account. Besides, you won't be able to use your official school email forever. It is time to move on from your childish email name, some of which we have encountered something along the lines of pinky_xoxo or vampy_247. If you're one of them its time to get a grown up email.
If you have a professional email that includes your name or initials already then thats great and you don't have to do this activity.
We do recommend a Gmail account as the Careers Section uses Google as its underlying digital systems and it is also widely used. You will then have access to plenty of super useful Google products too! (Disclaimer: we are just a Google Fan, nothing more)
Note: This email should be used throughout your time here in PTEM and probably beyond as well so think wisely.
If you need tips on creating a professional-looking email:
The standard when devising a professional email address, is to create them using common formats:
First name + domain (john@domain.com) ...
First name + surname initial + domain (johnd@domain.com) ...
First name initial + surname + domain (jdoe@domain.com) ...
Full name + domain (johndoe@domain.com)
But don't I already have my school email?
Note that you will not have access to your school email account forever. You also don't want to be forever associated with yourname@student.ptemeragang.edu.moe.bn when you leave university and when you start applying for work! So yeah, make a new one if you don't already have a professional gmail account. The Careers Section can only help with your personal statements in the future via Google Classroom and many of your tutors will also be using Google Classroom so it is definitely a must to have a gmail account.
