From what i got after sessions with GroupM Interaction Indonesia, it opened my eyes to know that digital is everywhere and we consume it everyday in our life. We can't live without our mobile phones and internet connection. When internet connection and mobile phone's signal are low, we curse providers to death. We share to the world what we're doing, where we are, and who we are on social media. We rely on google for everything that we want to know and search. We don't send letters anymore, instead we do emails, chats, video conference, instant messaging, etc. We can't imagine how desperate our life would be without internet. These facts show us that there are new opportunities for us to do something with digital, including new job opportunities.
