Interview

Having interview is seriously tiring. What to do? I need the scholarship. To get through the first interview is not that easy anyway. Yet I passed. I glad I did. This first interview happened about one to two months ago, with Taylor’s administrative personnel.

The first interview really taught me a lot. What I did after my interview is I went back home, open the career directory and other related course or career book to get a better understanding of what am I dealing with, to get familiar with the course that I am studying.

Later on, I was delight to hear that I was chosen to go for a second interview with a specific company. The human resource manager of the company that is going to interview me was Siemens. Well, I was the second options for the company, so in another words is, I am not selected. Since their first option accepted the offer delight, so there is no hope for a second option to get the place. Come on, if you have a 100% tuition fees waiver and internship with this big company, do you still want to forgo this opportunity?

Fine then, although I didn’t stand a chance to get the offer. But I am not bad you know, at least I am in the top 28 then top 14. (Only 7 companies are offering internship for business school students, maximum of 4 candidates are called for the second interviews.) Anyway, I tried my best.

Last week I got a call, stating that someone had rejected the scholarship offer, so another 2 second option’s candidate from different companies are called once more to go for this third interview. This time the company is GE (General Electric). Only 2 of us fight for a single place. The chance is 50:50.

The interviewer was quite nice. I like his style of interviewing people eased the interviewee anxious. I went in and did my best, although I am not that enthusiastic as the previous interviews. After 25 minutes, I came out from the meeting room.

After that, I need to suffer with economics, because I am having exam later on. When I was studying with my friends, the angelic Ms Dianne called up and congratulated me, because I successfully passed the interview and I managed to get this prestigious scholarship!

Haha, thank goodness… Finally, I am able to ease my financial burden and also get internship with the international company. Cool~

By the way, the name of the scholarship is World Class Scholarship.

I am so happy that I keep telling my brother

“Hey Bro, do you know that you are now living with a World Class Scholarship holder?”

(Such a bad sister I am)
