the interview

Just came back from an interview. First thing i wanna get off my chest?

THE RECEPTIONIST WAS A TOTAL BITCH!

Ok, maybe she wasn't a bitch to me per se but she was just a bitch in general k! I walked in, smiled at her, told her I was looking for the HR person and she just looked back at me sour-faced(would have been quite pretty if she even gave a semblance of a smile), and took out four sheets of paper, passed them to me WITHOUT SAYING A WORD. I mean, ok la, its common sense that I should fill up the application form but shouldn't she at least tell me out of basic courtesy? God.

So I looked through the four pages and the first 2 were the basic details about yourself. Then I saw the next 2 pages I nearly fainted. One was a plain sheet of paper asking me to "write a paragraph about myself". That I could handle. The other one looked exactly the same but it was in chinese!! And I wasn't sure if the instructions were the same but I assumed they were from what little sense I could make out of it. After I finished filling up everything except the chinese form, I went to the receptionist and asked if I still needed to fill up the chinese form since I filled up the english one. Unfortunately, she said yes.

I spent the next 10 minutes thinking about what I knew how to write in chinese and ended up with one sentence. 我是一个很喜欢跟别人讲话的人. (I just looked for that whole sentence using online pin yin dictionary. My pin yin is actually damn good. If I could've written the description in pin yin I could've written alot more!) Anyway, I know it sucks but at least I attempted SOMETHING right?

Oh ya, one more thing I forgot to mention is that I REALLY wanted the job(coz its damn near my house, haha) thats why I put in so much effort. If it were any other job I would've probably fucked it and handed up a blank sheet of paper.

Anyway, after that was interviewed by the HR and then the project manager AND THEN still made to do a written test but I passed!! The HR exec told me I was shortlisted and would liase with the recruitment agency about the pay. =D

Pray that I get the pay I want k! Will update again soon!! =)

P.S. I know there's a possibility that the bitch in question might one day see this but well, hope not! Lol.
