the journey of faithhihi! shall update about my job hunt.
went to PwC for interview as client account executive today. got shortlisted for 2nd interview! =) well, actualy i dun reli noe wad this position does as it is a brand new position in that company. hope i'll be able to "pioneer" this position. well, im not realy super over the moon when i got shortlisted, cause it was kinda of like i-expected-it. somehow when sometimes u go for interview, u somehow will just feel if you are able to get it or not. actually talk abt it, the whole "job-hunt saga" started way before i graduated last november...
it was during the BF period which i felt that God spoke specifically to me regarding my giving and my future job even before i grad. so even though i have been hunting for 3 mths since i grad until now, i am not exactly kan-jiong, but i have an assurance in my heart that God has alr prepared sth for me. but still, sometimes the sian-ness will just overwhelm you as u begin to go to the same website everyday to check for posting and when you have too much spare time!
im not exactly sure of what i reli wana do if u ask me, but i believe that God has a plan for me. and i mean i really believed, not just a convenient way to brush things aside. so pls pray for me that i will reli get this position, reli quite sian of interviews alr. and i think i love the company, the international feel and i felt that the env was sincere and real enuf. the guy who interviewed me says his job sucks, but he love the company. haha.
these few days are tiring! it has been so long ever since i felt physically tired. thursday was a job hunting day with the agencies (look at Myrna's blog for photos), went around door to door to register myself with them. as much as i dun like job agencies, well i still their help. prepared for interview at night, read up about accountancy and finiancial sector till 3am! and couldnt sleep cz was too excited for interview. went interview on friday morning and was so so tired that i came home and toook a 3 hrs nap!
its reli nth to be a degree holder now. just close your eyes and anyhow point your finger at any directions, you will be able to point out a degree holder. but still, education is impt. job hunting is really a humble experience, where u dun reli get to pick, but ple pick on u! as much as you thought that you have conquered half of the world with your degree, u are just stepping out at your doorstep. for now, i just wana do my part in searching and be diligiently looking out for opportunities, and God shall direct my path.
this period is reli a time of building my trust in Him.
anw im happy for woman that she got into some research conference! =) when she shared this with me, i just felt that indeed we are entering into diff phase of our lives. there are times which we are lost in NUS, not reli knowing what we wana do as Science students, sharing abt ministries and doing ministries tgt, those were the days of our youths (ok we are not so old afterall) and now i felt that the "marketplace feeling" is coming so near and real. but greater things have yet to come.
have been reading abt successful ple at their young age. was pretty amazed by the story of the founder of Spa Espirit Group. also saw 2 of my classmates interview on the newspaper regarding them getting prestigious scholarship. all these stories are so inspiring, makes me feel that opportunities are always there, its up to you to grasp. sometimes, we just gona push ourselves a lil more.
opportunities can always be found and people are always there to help u. as much as ple say that the society is cunning and cruel, it still provide ample chances for ple who reli wana excel and make a difference.
do something for yourself today.
