The job hunting experience is extremely tough. Unlike the moment I held the Diploma certification with pride, there is no further studies as an excuse this time round. Recalling the days I spent in SMU; numerous sleepless nights, battling with foreign "talents", cabbing back and for, struggling with grades and of course happiness. To summarize SMU years: negative > positive I see myself gradually becoming more pessimistic or maybe just yearning for a simpler life. I were on cloud nine upon graduation but the next phrase of my life hit me real hard! I need a job, not temporary nor contract, but permanent. BUT I chose to escape and procrastinate instead. The reality still haunt me back eventually. I sat down everyday with the target of 5 job applications and none replied for few weeks. To be honest, I do blame myself for procrastinating during my last semester and almost all my friends had gotten job offers. And yes, I were emotionally affected. Negative thoughts sipped in unknowingly and your encourage stirred me get professional help. Not bad, calls came and interviews arranged but none was open-minded enough to accept the fact that I don't want to constraint myself into working in the Marketing industry at such a age. None of them could recalled that they were once fresh graduate too and wanted to explore different jobs before finalizing one that they can work for life; their current position. Until this opportunity came, a sincere and humble interviewer interviewed me and told me something that I felt truly related and respect. "The reason why selected applicants are here today is because you all are academically qualified and well-equipped with the basic skills. I am not here to cross out whoever that belongs to Human Resource background or Law background just because they've done something that is not related to this job. But rather, I am here to see whether their interest and mindset fit this job. Hence, I will not entertain you all casually but give all of you the opportunity to showcase what you all've got." He's not any authority from the Human Resource Department but the action reflected the kind of attitude each and every person in the Human Resource Department or anyone in the Human Resource practices should have. And I'm really glad to accept this job offer. Thanks Ben, Eunice and Janet for giving me this opportunity.
And this officially marks the start of the next phrase of my life.
Whenever trouble comes your way, let it be an opportunity for joy. When your faith is tested, your endurance grows.
God's blessing; thanks a million!!
And not forgetting you, my special one. Thanks for encouraging and supporting me all these while. Lifting me up when I'm EXTREMELY down and sharing the joy with me. I LOVE YOU! :D
