Have you finalized your Christmas list yet? If you’re having trouble figuring out what to give your loved ones, you’re not alone—in fact, that’s why most of us end up leaving our holiday shopping up until the last minute! Sometimes the closer we are to a person, the more pressure we feel to come up with the perfect gifts. Our family members, for instance, can be the most difficult people to shop for.

To help you get into the true gift-giving mode, here’s a little tip from Pinoy holiday icon and Shopee Christmas ambassador Jose Mari Chan: Think of what your recipient would find useful or meaningful. "List down some important people whom you want to cheer up, then browse online to see what items you can give. Whatever you give doesn't have to be a big amount.”

For your tech-savvy brother

What do you get the brother who already has the coolest PC setup? Buy him high-quality gadgets and tech accessories he’ll use every day. He’ll definitely love the Marshall Stanmore II Bluetooth Speaker, which features multi-host functionality and Bluetooth 5.0 with Qualcomm aptX. Get him to start streaming his gameplays with Baseus LED Ring Light & Tripod, powered by 15W. Heavy mobile gamers will also get a lot of use out of Anker Powercore+ 10000, which provides high-speed charging with 18W.

For your beauty-obsessed sister

Do you always borrow cleansers and moisturizers from your sister? Replenish her beauty cabinet with the best skincare and makeup products. The SACE LADY Eye Makeup Set, KIMUSE Eye Beauty Kit, or Focallure Eye Makeup Set, all equally pigmented and long-lasting, will help her achieve the perfect cat-eye. The O.TWO.O Tinted Eyebrow Soap provides a stronghold and a non-irritating formula and mimics feathery brows. Add some color to her makeup collection with one of these limited-edition PINKFLASH Christmas Sets, which contain an assortment of palettes, lipstick, and eye makeup tools that she can play around with. For a clear, even skin tone just in time for holiday photos, get her the Breylee Acne Treatment Set or LANBENA Acne Scar Set.

For your supermom

Your supermom deserves all the pampering she can get! Treat her to a spa day during the holidays. Begin the makeover with silky, standout tresses in a fresh new color courtesy of Kolours Dusky Blonde Set of 2. The LAIKOU SAKURA Skin Care Set, chock-full of sakura extract and hyaluronic acid, will help restore her glow. Make sure she protects her skin from harmful UV rays with SkinWhite Whitening Lotion, which comes with SPF 20. Lastly, relieve muscle tightness and pain in her shoulder, legs, and body with  Rest Easy Neck and Pillow Massager

For your DIY expert dad

Your ever-reliable dad who serves as the family’s all-around handyman will love useful gifts. Replace his old tools with this Deli Household Tool Set, which includes tweezers, scissors, pliers, wrench, flashlight, and more. Most likely, your dad tends to ruin shirts while working on his projects, so get him a comfy cotton Regatta Men Round Neck Tee.

For additional stocking stuffers, throw in a Hygienix Alcohol with Moisturizer, which effectively kills germs, to help him keep his hands and his workspace clean. If he works outdoors, make sure he stays safe and protected with tried and tested masks such as Ilwoul KF94 Nano Respirator or Air Queen Nano Fiber Mask.

Whatever you choose to buy, just remember: your loved ones will appreciate whatever you give them! Jose Mari Chan adds, “When you receive, it's just a moment's pleasure. When you give, it lasts longer. When you give out of kindness, love, charity, and generosity, the impact will last for many years.”

Top Talents to Tech Leaders: The Key to Sustained E-Commerce Growth

Shopee invites all aspiring tech leaders to join the Global Leaders Program to experience in-depth training and mentorship to help drive the growth of e-commerce in the Philippines

E-commerce platforms continue to strengthen their foundation in the global retail market with constant innovation and improvements in the consumers’ overall online shopping experience. Along with the immense demand for quality products and services, there is also a great need for tech talents who will drive the growth of e-commerce locally and internationally. The value of e-commerce in Southeast Asia is projected to reach US$132 billion by the end of 2021, and in five years, the Philippines’ e-commerce value will grow by 3.8X.

Shopee, the leading e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia and Taiwan, equips young and high-potential talent with immersive training and in-depth mentorships through its Global Leaders Program (GLP).

The Shopee Global Leaders Program is a 2-year graduate program consisting of four 6-month local and overseas rotations designed for highly enthusiastic and ambitious young Filipino talents. Participants will help drive Shopee’s campaigns and new initiatives by working with local and overseas teams. They will gain eye-opening experiences, regional exposure and contribute to the expansion of Shopee across the region. Outstanding final-year students or fresh graduates with up to 2-years of working experience can qualify for GLP and will be part of a structured learning and development program. They will also receive dedicated mentorship from Shopee leaders.

Martin Yu, Director at Shopee Philippines, said, “With the demand for tech talents significantly rising, Shopee will continue to equip and nurture aspiring tech leaders through various training and internships like the Global Leaders Program. With this, Shopee is inviting those who are eager to learn to join the program. We are looking forward to the next batch of participants who will greatly contribute to the future of e-commerce in the region and in the international landscape.”

Participants of GLP shared how they gained significant professional and personal growth, which will help them excel in their careers in the e-commerce industry.

For Jan, the GLP is a holistic learning experience. “I love how diverse the possible rotations are and the opportunity for regional exposure is definitely a bonus. The program definitely builds your business acumen and widens your perspective on e-commerce as a whole. GLP is a great training ground to become a better problem solver. Not only do we get to analyze and solve real business problems, there are also many resources available to us. I personally enjoy the GLP training and gatherings wherein we get to hear from GLPs from other countries,” Jan shared.

Lance, on the other hand, sees GLP as an informative learning experience that opened his eyes to the industry’s broader spectrum. “I’ve always been interested in technology and startups, especially startups that create a new business model and innovation that is grounded on a new perspective or set of values. I wanted to join GLP because I felt it was a great opportunity to develop key leadership and problem-solving skills, while also getting exposure to tech-related businesses and the world of startups,” Lance added.

Both Jan and Lance are still currently enrolled in the program and consider it as an opportunity to hone their skills and understand the industry better. “If you are looking for strategic exposure and impactful work, apply to Shopee’s GLP. It is definitely a unique training experience that exposes you to highly skilled mentors, all the way to challenging and enriching projects,” Jan explained.

“If you find yourself interested and excited with roles that require business and problem-solving skills, then GLP is a great choice. Read up on the program details on the Shopee website and if you find yourself excited or curious about the rotations and challenges in e-commerce, then you should give it a shot,” Lance shared.

Are you an aspiring tech leader and interested in learning about the e-commerce industry? The application is open until October 30, 2021.
