ING expressed partnership interests in the areas of graduate trainee programs, special training for KYC certification, job fairs, student internships, company talks and industry updates, class field trips, faculty immersion programs, company visits, and special training.

Both St. Luke’s Medical Center and ING Business Shared Services participated in the Silliman University 2023 Job Fair held last May 22-23, 2023.
