Suggested formatYou’re free to write anything that you believe is beneficial, inspiring, and/or entertaining. But here’s some suggestion on the format that works best: 1. Use short paragraphs (only 2-3 sentences / paragraph to

improve the article’s readability) 2. Use sub-headlines to divide the article into easy-to-

digest parts 3. For the headlines, use intriguing questions (e.g. “Bingung Antara Kerja atau Langsung S2? Ini Alasan Mengapa Kamu Harus Tunda S2 Kamu”) or listicle (e.g. “5 Hal yang Saya Pelajari dari Magang di Perusahaan Multinasional”)

you writing as easy-to-digest as possible. 2. Don’t worry too much about making a perfect article. We have a team
