The Tales of Infinity

Saturday nite, 11pm. so sorry for the late update, and thank you for eVa, reggy, siska, mr.sinatra, and the rest of the people for reminding me to update my neglected blog. So yea, here i am!! i dont have school and work anymore (yay!), but seriously, job-less is 200% more stressful than school days.. sitting in front of my laptop everyday, starring at job postings on several websites.. huh, sooo boringg and frustating.. believe it or not, i miss my uni days!! It’s been 2 weeks of me kirim kirim resumes to so many companies (i lost count already!), and im so tired of job hunting. people told me that they need 3 months til they really got their current job. i was like, You gotta be kidding, rite? if 2 weeks gives me 8 pimples and reduces 3 pounds due to excessive stress level, 3 months would definitely make me look like a skinny twiggy tiny model (yea rite!), if not a drug addict.

but yea, after a week i finally found a better way to search for jobs.. that is to stick with one website, and keep on reloading the website every hour to see if there are new job postings and send my resume right away to the company. as the result, on that day, i got calls from 3 companies to schedule for an interview.. still, long way to go!! So, my first interview was with Kaplan.. when i looked at the job descriptions, i thought that i applied for a marketing executive position. In marketing, i believe that you have to “sell” your self more than just giving good answer. So i prepared myself with just so much of “tell me about yourself” and “what can you contribute to our company” question.. but i was so wrong, the position that i applied for was an associate director position, and none of these questiongs were on the list. my first question for the HR was, “in the future, if i perform well in your company, what is the position lead to?” and she told me that, “yes, if you get promoted, you’ll be our director.” muahahahhaa. at that moment i knew that i was screwed. The question was a little tougher than what i thought, and i didnt prepare well enough for an associate director position. i did it so badly, and at the end of the interview i cant stop myself from laughing, laughing abiss for my “so unprepared answers”. (so, even before the result come out, let’s turn that one down).

huah, i better be prepare for my next interviews. This monday, I have a face to face interview with Forbes magazine in the morning and javelin research in the afternoon. my preparation? number uno: Just got back from valley fair buying my new suit with Bule (thank you so muchh, Le dah ditemeninn).. number deux: im starring at both Forbes.com and javelin website to gain just as much information about the companies. and of course, pray hard!! everyone, please pray for me yaah!!

so this is the introduction of my new phase of life.. the sequel is coming up yah on Monday.

altalavista.
