Permadi was encouraged by Rapi Films to join the soap opera Cinta Terbagi Lima, with Raeshard Octaviansha and Nadia Vega. She followed this in 2005 with the soap opera Cinta SMU 2, starring Asmirandah. Through a lengthy process, she starred in an advertisement for Ting Ting Garuda, alongside Vicky Nitinegoro; it also made people familiar to her sweet face on television with shrill voice, "tingting bukan permen tingting bukan biskuit".

After her education, she appeared in several advertisements, for brands such as Clean & Clear, Torabika Mocca, and So Klin Pewangi. Later, the same production house asked her to audition for a soap opera, Aku Ingin Hidup, produced by Rapi Films in 2004. In this soap opera, she worked alongside Rorencia Natassia and Raffi Ahmad.

Permadi's career in entertainment started in 2003 when she auditioned for a teen model magazine while she was in junior high school. She passed initial selection, and reached the top 40 models. After her audition, she received many offers for photo-shoots, commercials, and television roles from various corporations. In her first soap-opera, Bunga Perawan, she appeared in only three scenes but was able to work with Indonesian actress Laudya Cynthia Bella. After her role on Bunga Perawan, she received offers to appear in more soap-operas, commercials, and modeling jobs. To date, she has played in more than hundred roles.
