Can u PLEASE ASK REVELANT QUESTIONS !!!
Juz dun understand, why companies do not actually give fresh graduates a chance to learn new skills in the working world ? And also, one of their requirements is to actually "1-2 years of experience is required" Is experience that important to them ? They are also in the same boat with us when they are fresh grads. Do they give a thought that where do fresh grads get their experience then ? Because some kind companies DO actually accept fresh grads so that they can gain their experience. If experience is tat important, so y do we get our degree then ? yes, you are supposed to start from the bottom, i agree with that, so does that mean that they are supposed to start work when they are way young ? And from there gain their educational skills ? So the companies meant that they kind of supported the life of half-study, half-work ? Oh my god, get a life, will ya..I am not complaining because of so many interviews, i couldnt secure a job, is because the companies couldn't allow us to gain their so-called work experience where they keep snubbing us for ppl who have work experience. Another point i wan to take note :Your job scope stated tat we are supposed to do this and that, then y so we go for interviews, the job scope is different sometimes ? For instance, i went to a interview at some company yesterdae, and the guy sae that this job requires doing sales and such. I was like "AM I IN THE RITE INTERVIEW ?" I tot the job scope say about IT projects. They didnt sae anything abt doing sales wat. Nvm abt that, the guy keep asking mi irrrelevant questions, which i totally feel impatient abt tat, and tat guy juz shoot any questions. Yesterdae interview was the worst i haven ever attended, i could sae. So yeah, PLEASE TAKE NOTE : PLEASE PUT YOUR JOB SCOPE RELEVANT TO THE QUESTIONS U WANTED TO ASK !!! Really hope tat after CNY, i could get a job, be it temporary, part time or wat, like the companies wanted, EXPERIENCE !!!

gosh...its so tough to be in the world world...
Happy belated new year to all u guys out there...solly for the late...but then...better late than never mar...take it or leave it... Phone calls starting streaming in after the new year, tot is a good thing, but then is like nothing lor...but then, got calls better than dun haf...so yeah...One of the interviews, working as a recruitment consultant, was not a good experience for mi. Interviewer : So, y decided to come to this line, since u have taken a degree in IT ? Me : Erm, i wanted to broaden my horizons, and wanted to spread my wings and give more options to myself, instead of sticking to one field. I : But then, this is a tough job, have to do alot of cold calling, do telemarketing... M ( i was shocked at first ) : Well, if i think is tough, i will not choose this line and will not send this application at the first place. ( I didnt expect this job is like doing sales leh ... ) After 30 minutes of interview ......... I : U know, by listening and looking at your body langauage, i dun think u are suitable for this job, y dun u stick to your line of field. Y dun u go home and think abt it, and give mi a call when u think u are ready, and we c abt that yeah... M ( I was like WTF ) : HUH ? Am i supposed to call u ?? i tot u supposed to call mi ?? I : (serious look out of the sudden ) : No, i was supposed to wait for you call..... I was like...wtf, is this the way interviewers are supposed to work ?? i mean, instead of encourageing ppl, u are demoralising and criticisiing the way they sell themselves...i mean...wtf...no way i am going to work there, even though the pay is good. ( pay is about 1.8 ) The most comfy of all interviews is yesterdae, where i was being interview for the Project Marketing Exective... Interviewer : So Evan, Wat u being up to ? Mi : I juz graduated from QUT.....blah blah.. I, a aus himself : Are u seriously !! Oh man, i miss tat place...anyway which part u from ?? mi from SYDNEY !! then we started chatting,haha...informal interview... i mean, interviews should be like tat mar...no meh ?? at least u must make them feel comfy,...but like the one i attend the one on tuesdae, total let down... Anyway, need to look for more jobs..and wish mi luck...hopefully can get the job soon...
