Well, i never thought I'd say this, but today's interview was fun. Sure, there's a hell of a crowd there, some came all the way from JB to attend the interview. Anyways, the first thing that we were tested on were our Math skill. Then, onto short essay and presentation before finally we were called for an interview. I was pleased that the Manager said I have fluent English compared to the others. But I think I almost shed a tear when they question my capability on stress management. How ironic is that? I hope it wasn't that obvious.
Neway, from the looks of the managers, I might get the job.. Wish me luck...
Yup, today's the day that I turn 24. Nothing much will be different, other than the fact that the pressure of getting a job will increase day by day...
What's the current updates of my life? Well, today's one of the many day that I really don't like my Dad that much. We were watching Cast Away on TV3 today, and one of the early scene was when Tom Hank's aeroplane went crashing into the sea. Mum was saying something about the sea and Dad HAD to point out that that was not an actual sea. That it was all done in a studio with a very huge water tank to accomodate parts of the 'crashing plane'. I could almost see my Mum rolling her eyes behind Dad's back. I mean, we all get the picture that he has been to Universal Studios and all that, watching how the Hollywood fools us with their special effect (which was aeons ago!!). But does he really have to spoil our fun? And believe me, this happens all the time that we say something like "Look at plane crash," or "I would die before reaching the bottom if I were to fall like that."
Speaking of Tom Hank, I can't wait to see his latest movie. Not that I want to watch him. I mean, it could be anyone else and I'd still want to watch it. Of course, it's the Da Vinci Code. I've read that book (both paperback and illustrated version) so many times that I could almost see myself taking the journey with him. But surely the movie can't be a better version than the book? Just hope that it won't be a dissappointment like Narnia. I was really looking forward to that.
Neways, hope I'll have a better year now that I'm 24 (though I can't think why it will make any different).
Where shall i start???
I went to my first job interview, and i got it. The interview went quite well as i knew one of the staff. But I wasn't keen on getting the job (though it will bring me back to Shah Alam), so I went to the interview unprepared. Regardless of that fact, i got the job and should start early January 2006 as they have many programmes planned for next year. But what set me off was not the pay (somewhere less than i expected), but the job description. I was to be resposible of the Admin work (meaning keeping track of the company's assets, among others), Account (monitor the cashflow of the company's daily transaction including the accounts in the banks), and finally Marketing (where I'm responsible of maintaining a minimum of 10 customers per month, as well as marketing the company's services to other interested sectors). Not only that, if the big Malaysia Book of Records' project is approved, I'll be responsible for the PR job. If you guys are still wondering what this company do, they provide services for Scuba Diving, ranging from the lessons, the trips, and the equipments. Sure, the post they are offering is a Manager, but I'm no Wonder Woman!!! And the fact that the company is run by Ex-Military officers really turns me down. I already have one Air Force Officer with a shotgun at home to handle. I don't need another.
So, it's back to job hunt... already gave my resume to my uncle at TM, but don't know how that'l turn out. And my baby wants me to try applying for possitions in Astro, NTV or TV3. What is it with you and television, dear???
