i promise a post on my job hunt.
since i m too excited to slp, i shall update here a little.
i started job hunting slowly after i left BM.
actually the 1st interview is deb who arrange for me.
her center needed ppl so i just go n try my luck.
the center is at pasir ris.
kinda far for me if i have classes on.
so rejected their offer.
got kinda happy sending resume online.
it is just one click away.
so i just happily click n click n click.
sent to shichida method, neuro tree, cherie hearts, mindchamps and so forth.
the next day my phone rang and this center at lavender called to schedule me for interview.
then shichida method called at a later timing to schedule me for interview the next day.
after putting the phone down, my poly senior called and asked whether i was looking for a job.
i got shocked and in the end she told me tt i sent my resume to her center.
this shows how small sg can get.
anyway, i went for shichida method's interview.
it lasted for 1hr plus.
i didnt expect the interview to be sooooo long.
so what did they interview me abt?
they got me to do 7 yo 8 sets of quizes.
the quizes are to test my right and left brain.
so they can calculate to be sure i suit the job.
there is a time limit for each quiz.
and the time limit is like 45sec to a min.
some of the questions found in the quiz:
- word scrambling (eg. HLDIC => Child)
- chinese word scrambling (eg. ' - - l - => 主)
- math sums
it was damn stressful while u do the quiz.
cause tt HR person just sit in front of u and stare at u.
as a typical singaporean, i also want to save some face for myself.
i die die also have to answer some questions.
when i did the word scrambling for english, my reaction was 'shit!'.
when i finished it, i was so relief.
but i have yet to find out the next paper was the chinese version.
tt was worst. totally omg.
after finishing the 7 to 8 quizes, i thought that's the end of my interview.
the HR person handed me a paper n ask me to write an essay in the next 10 mins.
i was totally stunned.
but when i looked at the question, it was pretty open ended. so not tt bad.
after finishing tt, the shichida instructor came in to interview me.
went thru my qualifications and so forth.
then she asked whether i know how to do a mind map.
i was like erm ya i know how to.
so she ask me to spend the next 3 mins to do a mind map on the topic - love.
i was like wth! do a mind map on love?
cant there be other topics instead?
so bo bian have to do cause she just keep staring at me.
so die die also have to write and crap some shit on tt white paper.
when tt is done, i thought there shldnt be anymore things for me to do le ba.
i was so darn wrong man.
she took out some flashcards and asked me to plan 20 activities tt relate to the flashcard in the next 10 mins.
i nearly fainted when i heard 20 activities.
hello. i m not a robot man.
and the things on the flashcards are nothing other than time in different forms.
what the fcuk can i teach man.
20 activities somemore.
this is the first interview tt i seriously break into cold sweat.
and yes i found a job le.
accepted the center at lavender.
near to home and school.
good location too.
near town too!!!
tt's abt it for now.
