my FIRST interview was with xx company.
the night before, goggled all the common-ask-interview-questions, practise with kervin !
on the day of the interview, the nice HR manager welcome me and took me to a room. she checked my papers and told me to wait for 4 interviewers. oh boy !! i haven’t been to a interview for ages and i have to ‘sell’ myself not only once but 4 times, to 4 ladies. that’s tough.
its a short 20 mins interview.
I GOT THE JOB ! :):)
my SECOND interview was with xx company.
after talking to the recruitment agent, pumpkin asked ‘are you sure abt tobacco company?’ i asked ‘why you say that?’ pumpkin ‘i know you have your principles’
I decided to go ahead with the interview.
I don’t like the reporting manager; cant be bother to impress them. haha !
yup, as expected, i didnt hear from the tobacco company.
its fun checking out my competitors though !
omg, there’s a candidate who arrived 1 hour before her schedule time.
she was wearing slippers, she changed into her formal shoes at the reception area. tsk tsk tsk ! at least I changed mine in the cab. 🙂
the other 2 candidates was super casual. i know the company is located at a industrial area but still…
my THIRD interview was with a school.
totally dig the school environment & work scope.
sigh.. what a disappointment!
the school dean called me & did a phone interview. I nail the interview and he told me I will be hearing from the HR manager shortly. the HR manager called me and asked some qns. she promise to call me back within 2-3 days with the ‘package’
instead I received a rejection email!
i called the HR manager immediately, wanting to know what’s going on.
long story short, their recruitment process sucks ! The Dean and HR gave their green light but there’s another guy who say no to my application. Come on, shouldn’t the HR call me AFTER getting everyone’s approval?
the nice HR lady told me to try for other position, drop her an email and she will try to help me. all I can say is ‘once bitten, twice shy’
……
my new job will be starting 1st Aug.
will do a little part time job but mostly stay home and shake leg
