His expertise is grooming, first impressions and personal branding helps to craft the likability in students which will assist them to connect in business which should create more opportunities. He emphasizes personal branding as a vivid indication of what one has to offer – the performance, contribution and value the next employer can expect from you. The brand you communicate marks your career reputation and is in some respects a promise.
By being in both fields in related industries, Arzmy believes the secret of success is to make strong connections with people. He reckons self branding and networking is very important to create a good impression of oneself. He believes that people skills are, in short, the various attributes and competencies that allow one to behave and act well. When we think of people skills, words such as personality, empathy, and directionality come to mind.
A strong personality comes from within, not only from the looks and how you dress but it has to align with an all rounded personality to unleash charm and aura to be more influential and confident amongst the other players out there. When asked what is the key to success – his answer is persistence, consistency and perseverance. That said, Hargreaves latest achievement was a MFMPA Award.

The whole program was put together with the support of many parties and industry players during the various Movement Control Orders that were in place to control and curb the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic throughout 2020. Everything was conducted virtually prior to the actual awards presentations.
