:: Job Hunting ::

It’s time for job hunting again. I think it’s been a while I did it since 2006. What else is the easier medium for people today to hunt job other than internet? Nowadays people risk their future and life by job hunt through the Internet. Internet has drastically changed the way people today hunt for jobs. It's probably been a few years since I’ve submitted a resume via mail or fax. Hehe.. Internet also change the way I shop definitely. Hey, shopping online is like, hello...things people do these days.

Ok..ok..enough about internet, I’m sending my resume to 10-11 companies, hoping they will call me and set for interview. But week passes, no calls at all, I’m started to be worried. Is my resume not good enough? and I’m thinking, gosh is it because of the recession people talk about 2009. Instead hiring people, they firing people? Huh...

Today I decided to call 2 places that I aimed to work at. Mutiara Reka and IDS.

Episod 1 acara menelepon.

Miss Angkat Tipon : Mutiara Reka, Selamat Petang..
Me : (Huh..nasib baik ko cakap Melayu..) Ermm..Mutiara Reka ye?
Miss Angkat Tipon : Ye..
Me : Ok, nama saya Suhida. Saya nak tanya kalau ada vacancy untuk pos ID.
Miss Angkat Tipon : Interior Designer? Boleh faxkan resume tak?
Me : Sebenarnya... (malu nak cakap yang aku dah hantar resume kat diorg..tp tak dpt2 reply)...saya dah hantar kat email.
Miss Angkat Tipon : Email yang mana ye.
Me : Err...(punyalah banyak kompeni aku hantar.mana nak ingat email address kompeni ko..eee...)..rasanye mrsb...
Miss Angkat Tipon : Ooo..mrsb@dot..dot..dot tu ye. Email tu dah tak valid lah. Kitorang dah tak pakai.
Me : Oh ye ke..Kalau camtu saya fax esok pagi je lah ye.
Miss Angkat Tipon : Ok,nanti saya pas kat bos saya. Kalau ada apa-apa,saya akan kol.
Me : Ok. Mekasih ye.

Bengangnya aku...Patutlah tak kol-kol . Rupa2nya email dah takleh pakai. Sabar jelah.. Aku dail no IDS lak. Sebenarnya aku nak sangat kerja kat kompeni ni,sbb international. Kalau dah international, kenalah berspikang bagai..kan.Masa nak kol tu dah berdebar-debar. Takut diorang tanak ambik orang. (Sebenarnya lebih pada berdebar nak kena spikang..hehehe..) Tapi tangan tu dail gak tu.

Episod 2 acara menelepon.

Miss Angkat Tipon : IDS..Good Evening..
Me : (Alamak,spikang lah..) Ermm..Good evening. IDS ya?
Miss Angkat Tipon : Hmm.. (Suara boring je..Mesti dia ingat budak ni macam bagus je na speaking..cakap melayu jelah..Huuu..)
Me : Actually, I’m just wondering if there’s any vacancy for ID.
Miss Angkat Tipon : ID as interior designer ke?
Me : Yup.
Miss Angkat Tipon : Maybe you can send your resume.
Me : Actually, I’ve already sent it by email. But..I never get a phone call. So...I call lah.. (Susahnya na spikang..maklumlah dah lama tak kerja..)
Miss Angkat Tipon : Oh ya ke. Bila u hantar tu?

Hmm..dia dah start cakap melayu,aku pun cakap melayu lah. End up rupa-rupanya dia da print da resume aku. Efisien sungguh pompuan ni. Siap letak atas meja bos dia lagi. Tapi..bosnya takde ,tak balik dari Dubai lagi. Pompuan ni ckp aku hantar resume lambat sangat. Masa bulan 10 hari tu diorg hired ramai staf. Ciss..tapi dia bagi harapan gak, “Takpe,nanti I tanya bos I kalau2 dia na amik staf lagi..” Mmm..so sudahnya aku dalam dilema dah. Aku na kerja kat IDS,tapi kena tunggu bos balik ntah bila ntah. Esok na hantar resume kat Mutiara Reka. Dahlah aku sekarang unemployed. Dibuatnya diorg suh start immediately, pastu dpt interview kat IDS. Buat malu nama aku je.

So, moral of the story ialah :

1. Lain kali telefon pas email/fax kalau urusan tu penting.

2. Kol IDS dulu baru kol Mutiara Reka. Napelah aku ni bengong sangat. Huh..
