When I was on the way back to Pasar Seni, I plan to call for another interview at Jalan Raja Chulan. This 3^rd interview was far more mystical that happen on me. Why? I still remember I fall asleep a while and when I wake up I still blur and that time I was almost at Pudu I think. But I was too early come down from the bus. Lucky, when I walk down, I can found Imbi monorail station. Before I get into monorail, I make a phone call to the person in the ad. Why I said mystical…? This advertisement I was found on Sin Chew and what so mystic was it only write “Customer Services, Contact person name and phone number & the venue just state near Raja Chulan monorail”. So I just try again.

When I reach Raja Chulan monorail, I call the person, Mr. Tan. He was then giving me the instruction through phone how to reach the company. It sounds like challenging right? I’m lucky because the place was not so far. I start from Istana Hotel and went down to a white building then pass by the Public Bank on the right the I go straight till the “SEI HOY CHEN 四海桭 building” then go to AmBank building. After that, walk through a small road on left. I can see KWSP building on right and lastly I will reach the MCB plaza. The company name is Kelly Services. I went on to 17 floors for Kelly Services Call Center to meet Mr. Tan. It was my 1^st times I get know with Kelly Services. Kelvin told me that they did come for the UTAR during career fair. Fantastic, I didn’t know that and now I will interview by Kelly Services.

Interview with Mr. Tan was just a 1^st interview and I thought it was already a formal interview. Then I know that, Kelly Services wad a company that employ by other company to help them find employee and filter and select candidate for the formal interview. When I reach there, it almost 3 something. The interview was taking shortly I had to wait for the call for 2^nd interview on Tuesday (9 June 2009). Everyday, I will imaging and pray that I can call up for attending second interview. My goodness, maybe the pray worth… they call me on Monday for attending Tuesday interview. Thanks to God, Buddha… I was exciting to prepare what Mr. Tan had told me “wear a long sheave formal shirt and he always told his candidate that if u attends the interview u had 50/50 percent to success and getting the job.

9 June (Tuesday)……I wake up early. After read newspaper, I went to bath and prepare to dress up my formal wear. Before I went out, I take a simple breakfast, “sandwich” (egg+ white Bread & hot dogs) and a cup of MILO + cream cracker. I went out about 11am. When I reach there, it was just 12 something. I’m early an hour before the time they told me (1pm). I had another short interview with the unit manager before I went for the briefing session regarding today interview. All the the candidate had to wait the Australian employer who in charge for the interview. I had to go through 2 interview session which was group interview and face to face interview. It was another good experience for me because I haven’t attach with this kind of more formal interview some more it was my 1^st time experience what group interview was look like.

In group interview, we were giving 2 tasks. First task, I had to find a partner and then talk to them and listen to them regarding a few question that had request us to ask like ( name, previous company, favorite colour, slogan on T-shirt and Building & Structure and why). After that, we both had to present each partner regarding the question. I guess the purpose for this task was test for listening skills and surely presenting skills. Everyone is written down all the information including me. But when the time I present, I try to be different without looking at the paper but lastly I forget 1 slogan of my partner. He gives me two slogans. One was D-up (is meaning defend) another that I forgot and let me read it from the paper is “In Case of Emergency add Cold Beer”. Sure that I still remember what I had told my partner regarding the 5 question. I told him that my favorite colour was Red, Blue and Black. Slogan (U make the choice, Not the Choice Make U). Lastly is building. I told him is Pyramid and the reason I give was Mystical, wisdom knowledge.

During the 2^nd task, 18/19 of us had divide into 2 groups for another activities. In this activity, we were going to examine working as a group— team work. We are giving a scenario that written like this a group of people are on plane and the plane had crushed on a mountain that was cold condition, the area was out of radio signal and u had to choose 10-item from the list from the plane in order to keep your group survive. I still remember the item that our group had chosen.

1)Matches

2)Small hand-axe

3)Chocolate bar

4)Nylon rope

5)Torch Light

6)First-Aid tool box

7)Compass

Brandy

9)Something for shelter…

10)……(forget)

Every one of us had to present each item that we had chosen and explain why we choose it. I still remember why we choose Chocolate bar instead of fresh water and apple on the list. We think that chocolate bar provide us energy. The high calories can burn and warm up our body and the fresh water can replace by the snow that can easily get from the surrounding mountain. Brandy was chosen instead a carte of beer because it contains high alcohol. It can warm up our body and also can used to set up the fire.

After the group interview, I had to wait for face to face interview. During face to face interview, again I was interview by 2 people, the Australian guys and the Chinese women. I had been asked about why I taking psychology but applying in this job the not related to psychology field, how I can apply the psychology knowledge in this job. I had also been asked how your referral will describe you and how your friend will describe you. Lastly, the Chinese women had to ask me in Mandarin and I had to speak in Mandarin when I response to the question. The purpose here was to test my second language ability. I had ask to used Mandarin to describe myself and I also been ask to speak in Cantonese. When the interview was finish, it was 4 something.

Now, what can I do now was just what the law of attraction and law of gender said “let go and let god”. I had to let go my wish and pray to Universal, God and Buddha and the result will remain to the God now. Only God can help me. Surely, I need a job now but now I only can let to the God. I only can pray to God, Buddha….
