I am so excited, I kinda feel like there is a force that driving me forward – it’s a sudden action jer. Here is something I would really like to share. How many times have you heard of this – communication skills?
One core issue behind the flunking of Malaysian grads to obtain job. Even though its been bandied about for ages, but drastic actions have yet to be taken. Communication skills are major role of getting job nowadays beside excellence academic achievement. Those who speak well will certainly get hired.
Do you think that fair enough? it’s still fresh during my very first interview where I managed to secure the job later on, here how it went, I think this was the longest ever interview that I had ever been in any interview, where the position I was applying for required someone who possessed excellence command of English.
The session went on for an hour. This person a.k.a the boss actually was testing my confident level, the shorter I responded the longer the session carried out. Imagine how I stressed out am at the time!!! At first I was wondering – why is it so difficult for me to get hired for this simple job? After all, the situation in there does not reflect any need of it.
It looks pretty much like a stationary shop with a little add-on of service on the menu board. Apparently it’s not a typical stationary shop but shipping centre. But the wondering left hanging.
Days passed by, now I began to comprehend - why ? the truth was every single day I gotta deal with clients but foreigner. My impression was immediately altered and I had got perfect answer for that. It never crossed my mind that these far communication skills were taking us. I really found that it’s so hard in the early time but that not perpetual. As the time went, I managed to brush up my communication level and became more energetic plus prepared for greatest challenges.
When I trace back, it took no longer than a month to really get used to it. What more important is your courage. My mom keeps reminding me, no matter what I do, just be you. She is right.
Her say make me thinking, one time she made this remarks - being be it a student or whatnot are not important but the way you carry yourself is matter the most. This inspired me a lot.
These adapts have been evolved ever since. In fact when my first semester commenced I was still working there. She supported me thoroughly because she knew there was positive potential that could grow from there. I don’t know, I feel like there is some kind of energy that attracts me there. With those wonderful experiences it worthwhile to be back.
Sooner I will make my way right up back there once again. It’s a story worth to share.
