NTU Campus Interview 2008


This week was wonderful !!!

Immediately after a week of rest, I was back in action this week with a job in NTU Campus Interview 2008 as a Student Assistant. My work is mainly as a AVA support crew, but I also helped out with moving stuffs, handling Kiosks, Lunch Distribution and making PA Announcements !!!

Little bit of background : NTU Campus Interview 2008 is a yearly event held by the NTU Career Development Office, for Post-Graduates to send in their resume and come for interviews. There are lots and lots of companies invited, such as Outward Bound Singapore, Citibank, UOB etc. The best part is that there are presentations by the companies to Post - Graduates to tell them more about the company's job scope. Well I was particularly impressed by a lady named Ms Sarah from Double Lion Company. So nice to talk to haha !

My main job was to be the AVA crew, so I got alot of chances to listen to the presentations and talk to the presenters from various companies !!! Haha well well ... my fav presentations were Pico Art International and Outward Bound Singapore, cos after these 2 presentations I COULD ALMOST SEE MY CAREER PATH.

Pico Art is a event organisation company, and is in charge of events like National Day Parade, and other mega events. Hey its so dynamic and happening lor !!! Then Outward Bound Singapore no need to say, being a instructor will bring adventure to everyday life ! Hmm I dunno why, but my mind churns out a Career Path IMMEDIATELY.

Sign 3 years Outward Bound Bond, then apply Pico Art or other event organising company and start my career in a corporate world. Outward Bound is so attractive lor !!! Good pay, plus lots of leaves and expeditions !!! Of cos there are lots of considerations, but I have 3 years to think anyway haha.

Well the job was certainly fun. First there was our supervisor Ms Bibi and Ms Chong, both of them are real nice lady. Haha Ms Bibi treats us breakfast every morning, felt so 不好意思 leh. Ms Chong is a wonderful Career Guidance Coach, her Colour Personality Test makes me knows myself better.
Colleagues wise ar .... wat can I say, super Multi-Nationality lar. There's Belina + Freddy from Indonesia, Grace from Vietnam, Chee Shing from Malaysia, Akusha from India, Kenneath + Nuda + Me from Singapore !!! It was very fun interacting with them, and learning how to say hi in Vietnam "Ba Kuai Hong !" There was the 4 days of Bento lunch session with them as well.

All in all, this job assignment is simply outstanding !!! Not only are the supervisors and technician Uncle Wong super friendly, the job itself is manageable. The most important thing that I got from this experience is a new found confident in searching for a career path and a peek into the corporate world.

Wah I am really a Lucky Chap sia, how come I got a chance to land in such a good job one ???!!!

Anyway, back to reality.

Today was results day man. I tried logging in but I cant even get into NTU website, and my work is rather early so I pushed viewing of results to a later time. Eventually that Douglas kept pestering me for my Marketing MB 103 result and I log on using his handphone GPRS.


Not bad !!! I got an A for it !!! Its my first A since 'O' Level !!!

Heng ar if not I dunno how to face Douglas and Weiling whom I talked so much marketing concepts to them haha. Wah my grp Ruo Gu, Joan, Agnes also got A sia !!! Isit that Marketing is easy ? or is it Tunez Seeders is just great ? Yea we were just GREAT !!!

The rest of the subs were ok with B- and B+. Wah but I also got to taste how it feels to "tabao" a subject. Its that toopid HC 203 Tang and Song Poetry. AhhhhHHHHH !!! It makes me hate Zh**g Hu* even more !!! His stupid Mini-Tests is so hard !!! I shd have copied and wun end up in this state lor. NVM lar I very optimistic one, I rather indulge in my Marketing grades than feel sad over this. Just work harder lor, I will get a chance to interact with Yr 1s when I retake ar.
