Which ABG company you want to work for and why?
I want to work for ABG Fashion and Retail Limited. With more customers moving online each day for shopping, it would be a privilege for me to work in the Digital and Online space of ABG Fashion and Retail Limited. With my expertise and past experience in the IT sector and my recently acquired skills in management, I believe I would be better able to contribute to as well learn from ABG Fashion and Retail Limited online Platform.
