Tan Clement's Skill Profile
Business Development Intern @ Fragrance Foodstuff Pte Ltd
When I was working at Fragrance Foodstuff Pte Ltd (Nov 2019 - Feb 2020), I demonstrated leadership when I was responsible for more than a hundred corporate order sales during the Chinese New Year period.

I also delegated the management of orders to my team members and ensured each orders requirements were clearly conveyed and met. As a result, I managed to strengthen the process loops and met the orders in a timely fashion with little errors..
BSc (Hons) in Chemistry and Biological Chemistry with Second Major in Environmental Science @ Nanyang Technological University
When I was a student researcher at Nanyang Technological University (Aug 2020 - Present), I demonstrated laboratory skills when tasked with the organic synthesis of reaction substrates. I proactively researched various reaction pathways to improve the situation to find the most efficient method with the highest yield. As a result, I managed to improve the efficiency of the overall research process by reducing the time needed to test the effectiveness of our catalyst.
