#1 PANGGILAN HANGIT
Dalam minggu lepas, I got a call from an unknown number. Dah lah hari tu aku keje petang, semalam pulak OT balik lambat, baru tidur bape jam dah kene bangun sahur pulak, apa lagi mestilah aku tengah membuta pagi tu time die call tu. Hewhew.Aku ni pulak memang kalau tidur malam, handphone silent mode.
Bangun-bangun je dah ada 4 missed calls.
Tapi aku buat tak reti je sebab aku assume adik aku yang call guna public asrama.
So i was like, 'Alahh, nanti nanti je lah call, serabut' HAHA
Sekali kat tempat kerja dalam pukul 1 lebih macam tu, aku dah on the way nak pegi sembahyang dah kat bilik belakang tuu when my phone rang. Lagu Lady Gaga youuu.
I turned back and picked up the call. Rasa macam nak luruh jantung, terkejut aku bila the speaker introduced herself and congratulated me out of the sudden. Biaq betoi aku shorlisted? Nasib baik hati aku tergerak nak patah balik untuk jawab call tu. Kalau tak, aku rasa orang tu pun takkan call aku untuk kali ke-6. Huuuu.
Punya lah terkejut sampai aku drive balik kerja pun hampir nak langgar orang. Macam tak percaya je. I mean aku shortlisted? me? really? are you sure? really really?
#2 INTERVIEW
Attire dia of course lah formal. I was wearing my orange baju raya. Nak dijadikan cerita, kasut yang aku beli semalam untuk interview hilang lah pulokkk. Haih, dah lah aku ni tengah miskin kasut time tu, gaji pun tak dpt lagi. CIS!time tu juga dia nak hilang. So aku pinjam kasut raya adik aku yang berwarna putih with a big white ribbon on it. I hate to do that but fate left me with no option at that time but to grab whatever that fitted my feet and the dresscode . SERIOUSLY MACAM CACAT JE AKU PAKAI KASUT TU. Tak matching langsung! Dah lah takde heels, baju aku dah panjang bwah lutut, macam orang kerdil je. Nak jalan pun susah, asyik nak tersadung sebab terpijak kain je. Hello, maknyah pun tak jalan cacat macam kau nyah -_- !
Pastu dahlah aku terpaksa bangun pukul 5 pagi untuk sahur and terus bersiap to follow my dad to KL because he's working in KL so it was convenient to have him send me to the Maxis Tower. Penat woo sebab sehari sebelum interview tu aku keje. Dengan bermatakan mata panda, aku pun ke Maxis Tower. Pastu kan.... Dah lah itu... Pastu... Tah hape2 tah..
*PANG*
"Kau ni takde keje lain ke asyik merungut je. Menyampah tau"
Ehem *Clears throat*
Okay continuing.
Setibanya di Menara Maxis di waiting area where candidates were waiting for their turns to be interviewed. Well, I reached there around 9.45am which is 45mins earlier for my interview. I met a chinese girl, her name was Li Anne if I am not mistaken. We talked for awhile, you know just to calm ourselves. I knew we were both scared and we were trying to hide that as best as we could from each other. Somehow it sounded pathetic mann, haha.
She was supposed to have her interview at 10 am but it was delayed to 10.15am which means my interview was delayed as well. Everything was a bit behind schedule. Her interview lasted for 30mins++ and she took a deep breath upon exiting the interview room which of course triggered my adrenaline and curiosity.
It was one on one interview. And FYI not all candidates were interviewed by the same panel. My interviewer was the same as Li Anne and that was Puan Sabariah. She told me before leaving that Pn Sabariah was a nice lady and she even gave Li Anne some feedback on her interview. And I was like WOW. That has to be the part when you're like "OUCH!" when the truth actually slammed you in the face.
Next up it was my turn.
Well actually her questions were not that hard but it made me look stupid when I spoke stupidly in English. Dah lama tak skipping ehhh I mean speaking. Berkarat, berhabuk sume ada -_-
Tapi I didn't care as long as she was able to understand what I was trying to convey. Grammar tunggang langgang, bersepah *HIPERBOLA*
Antara soalan yang ditanya:
1-Tell me about yourself.
2-Tell me about your career inspiration.
3-Tell me about one of the leadership position that you held before and the challenges that you faced.
4-So you like to read books? (i answered 'yes') Tell me about one of the books that you've read.
5-Why should Maxis awards you with this scholarship? (As expected)
Frankly I hate to answer question 1 & 4. These kind of questions confuse me because I don't exactly know where to start and where to stop. Haha. And for question 4 I ended up telling the whole story line to her. Oh oh and guys don't forget to highlight the moral of the story. It's important. *cehh macam bagus sgt je nak bagi tips kat orang* U_U
you wanna know her feedback towards me?
She said that I have good command of english and I stated that I was emotionally inclined.
I have a kind heart which is good and the world needs people like me.
BUT...... (ni yang tak sedap dengar ni)
I might face problems in convincing people who are in a rush because i might cause them to lose their attention to what I'm trying to deliver.
HEEEE. Takpelah terima jelah, at least I know that is my weakness and I can try to improve. So for now just wait and see. Hoping there's good news in the next 2 weeks. Amiinn. That's all for now. Pray for my success people :D Chow Cincau!
