well.. i am sure that alot of people went through these few stages:
1) Finish Finals
2) Nothing to do
3) Start to Job hunt
4) Lots of phone calls
5) Going for interviews
6) Accepting and rejecting offers
7) Got a job at last !!!
Some interviews are very simple, especially for smaller firms, you get to be interviewed by the boss him/herself, and you also might be able to get to know whether or not you are offered the job by the end of the interview.
Some interviews are not that simple, especially for bigger firms, mostly likely you'll be interviewed by the HR officers first and later only will be interviewed by the branch managers or managers etc if only you got the chance for a second interview.
I went for these two types of interview, well the first type has not much to share, so i'll share with you all the second type.
firstly, i was lucky because i got help from my friend which passed my resume to her team leader, and her team leader managed to get me an interview. How did she do that I am not that sure. Soooo, I got a call from Company X HR office and told me to go for an interview two days later. Damn... it was so sudden, because I was staying in a different state and it will take me about 3-4 hours to get to the other state for interview.
In the end, I took a taxi up to my aunt's house and WENT for that interview!
The next day, after one hour on the LRT with lot of people squeezing here and there, I reached the place 2 hours early..
HEY~! dont laugh at me and think that I am stupid. Its because I did not have any transport yet! so i had to go there damn early!
well, the first interview was not much, just like a normal one :
1) why are you keen on the job?
2) why are you the most suitable candidate?
3) what kind of problem did you encounter in your studies and how did you solve it?
then after 4 hours in the office, I was glad to have a chance for the second interview
second interview was the assessment test :
1) group activity
2) group case study
3) individual case study and presentation
Well, i dont thk that i should go into the details because it MAY be confedential..
hahahha.. dont balme me k?
hmmmm.. i THK that i DID ok for both the interviews....
soooooo....... I'll just have to WAIT for two weeks for the call.. XD
WISH ME LUCK PEOPLE!!!! :)
