interviews....

2 days juz passed w/o my realising....haven posted any thng these 2 days cos i had some interviews 2 go 4 . here's an update on e 2 days...

On Monday, I took half a day off 2 go  4 my 1st rd o interview at Singapore Chinese Chamber of Commerce & Industry (SCCCI). After gg thro’ e interview, I had 2 sit 4 a written test. at e very 1st look at e test paper i tot o giving up....There r 3 qns. 1st qn was:

wat did SCCCI do (I dunno, juz bullshit loh…) the asked wat e research & publication section (which I m applying 4) does in e overall operation o SCCCI (again I dun know & bullshitted…). As usu there was e qn o how can I contribute 2 SCCCI (o cos as u’ve guess, I bullshit again loh…)

2nd qn: translate a Chinese passage into English (still ok, juz some buz terms I dun know, then use direct translation….)

3rd qn: translate an English passage into Chinese (tis I had tremendous problem!!! All my Chinese words all return 2 teacher oredi, then still have 2 use all e buz terms….so I went 2 their resource lib & borrowed a dictionary….there was another applicant in e room & he was writing at super speed on qn 3, his Chinese must b really power!!! When I was ¾ way thro’, e HR lady then told me tt I’m not supposed to use dictionary so as 2 b fair….but wat can I do, I oredi used…so I noted in my paper tt I used the dictionary loh…then I had 2 wait 2 c if I get 2 e 2nd rd o interview…..& guess wta I made it thro’….& had 2 go 4 e 2nd interview on tue.

On tue, had e interview 4 SCCCI & e Singapore Children’s Society (SCS). E former is in e morning the latter in e evening…so I took e day off ytd…the interview at SCCCI didn’t go very well….e secretary-general o SCCCI  asked me e latest news in s’pore, so I said e new PM loh, then he asked wat I tink abt lee hsien long…how e hell m I supposed 2 know…then I say he has been in e govt svc 4 so long & he hasn’t made any fatal mistakes….then he said he actually did make a mistake, he asked me if I knew wat…so I tot mayb it’s e Taiwan trip tt he made…then he asked me e implication & y china reacted so violently….i dun know la…so again bullshit but dun know wat I said…bad……took only 15mins 4 e interview…

At e SCS, 1 o e interviewer was 1 o e x-lecturer fr nus I also know him but I didn’t take any modules under him…I also bullshit a little here cos I was a little nervous…but they (3 o them) were a nicer bunch o pple than SCCCI (also 3 interviewers)….while I was waiting 4 my interview, I cld hear e earlier applicant & interviewers laughing & I guess they had a rather long interview cos I was early, 15mins earlier, then e applicant oredi inside, & he came out at least 20mins after I arrived….e SCS interview also took me less than 15 mins....haizzzz no hope oredi..... 

 
Both also say they’ll inform me o e outcome at e end o e week….now not much mood 2 work actually….

 
haizzzz..............
