Summary
Summary of my job hunting quest
jobs applied : 100 ++ ( 76 are through JobStreet, 20+ are through companies' website)
okay okay..alot of u will think...wat the fuck are u doing?? 100++ jobs applied...crazy ar...yeap..am trying to apply as many jobs as possible..how i know...all i thought tat time was to get a job...so tembak je la....as long as the requirement for the job is "degree in electronic or telecommunication"
Called for interview : 6 ( went to 4, rejected 2; 4 from website, 2 from JobStreet)
the interviews started to come 4 weeks ago(after i finish my exam)....which means every week i had one interview..until the fifth week(this week)..i got my job offer...why i rejected 2 interviews...well..1 interview was in KL..which i applied 1 month ago when i was still in KL...so now i'm back to my home town..lazy to go down KL to attend interview....another one....because i already got offered..oh ya..ppl told me that its useless to apply throught JobStreet as i wont get call up for interview...i guess they are wrong..one of my job offer was from the application through JobStreet..now who say JobStreet cant get you a job?
job offered : 2 ( 1 in mainland, 1 in island; 1 from JobStreet, 1 from website)
I decided to choose the one in mainland because of the job scope, higher pay and also i can save on my petrol and tol for bridge.....coz its just 10 mins from my house only.... :D :D
duration of the quest : from 9th of March 2007 to 5th of July 2007 (freaking 4 long months)
oh yea...4 long months...started to apply through JobStreet..but seriously...its all depends on ur timing and luck.....
when i was signing the contract in front of the HR manager....
"Oh ya..please write down the date that u going to start work and sign it"
"Ouh kay.....so what date shud i write??"
"write 9th of July....which is next monday"
OMFGSWEETPOTATO...so fast!!!!!
