Testimonials

I have been working at Hong Kong Tramways for about 10 years. During my work, I had a memorable experience of driving the Pilot Cooler Tram. Every day, there is a kid who always likes to take my ride after searching for the tram schedule, even in bad weather. And I am delighted that he will keep on taking my ride. I love taking the tram too. I am happy and enjoy working in such a warm and caring company. I have a close relationship with my colleague. It would be a great experience for me to become a Motorwoman at Hong Kong Tramways.

I am very pleased to work for this stable job at Hong Kong Tramways. The salary and benefits are good. Except the close relationship among the colleagues, we would help each other during the work, with a “partner” relationship. Hong Kong Tramways gives me various opportunities. With the strong team work and corporative spirit, I am happy to work here!
