D' One Pacific, Sunway

Last week i went for an interview at D' One Pacific Sdn Bhd, beside Sunway Pyramid. The office is small however that time there were 3 peoples include me waiting for interview that times..

Once i walked in to the office i felt a bit weird because the receptionist there was listening pop music and the volume was quite loud, doesn't a professional company won't do that? this was what coming out in my heart while i was in the office.

Well, the branch manager Phoebe started interview me and another Malay girl together. From her information i know that this company has a lot of big clients like Celcom, Unicef, Budimas etc. They mainlly focus on NGO companies and help them developed their business. This were what she told me... Well after few days i get a call for second interview.

The malay girls also asking for the second interview, this time got another indian woman as well. That time was 8.30am, i saw a lot of people standing there and discuss something in the office. The receptionist told me they were meeting. I felt lifely, happy, fun and excited when looking on the way the meeting. It is not serius at all, they just look fun and energized. Some more they juice here juice there, cheers a lot.

This time i felt like it's kinda direcselling company becuase of cheering a lot, some more they will gather all together in a circle and the leader told them the business result on the day before and everyone seem so excited, clapping each others... well maybe it's their culture.

While the interview, brance manager told me that their company will treat us as business partner but not employees, they don't want make us too formal, and we are all friends learning each other, so if we are not the employee then they won't give us basic salary.. haha... a good reason, because we are friends so we can get commission unlimeted based on our exhibition and how much customers we get in the road show. Yes, road show.

The office is small becuase basically its using for morning brething and after that all the employees (partners?) will go to separate roadshow to promote their clients... This is what they say a mangement training to train your confidence... ok... i understand, we need chance to talk to strangers..

At the end i didn't accept the job because i still feel weird of the structure and function of the company, wonder why. Maybe no basic salary make me feel unsecure...

Interview at EDS, an HP company


Yesterday, i went Cyberjaya attent an interview at EDS company which is now an HP company. The position that i interviewed was technical helpdesk level 1.0, after that i told my senior i went to interview for this position and he said i am gila already, haha because he know that i like programming much more than networking or OS... hehe


The EDS building is so big and grandness... Big company really different huh... One of the advantages is i can easily find the right office since it is obvious and can see it from a distance.. haha...

Before the interview, i requested to finish a 25 multiple choices questions, related to troubleshooting, problem solving of networking, OS, software and other related to computer.

The interviewer was a very cool young lady called Tenex, at first i thought is a guy name and i think the name is very cool. After that, a very stylish, smart, unisex-fashion lady interviewed me.. She was very nice and i felt happy to talk with her. The interview not the kind of stress or serious style however i can say it's casual and i felt like talk to a friend.... yea.. Wonder can get the job or not.. haha

Interview at Maersk (M) Sdn Bhd


This morning I went for Maersk (M) Sdn Bhd interview for trainee at Shah Alam. It is one of the world's biggest shipping company. Today interview mainly is for logical thingking aka IQ test and personality assessment.

I could say it is very competative to get a job in the company because today there are around 70 more candidates interview together with me. So i am not alone and nervous, should i happy with that, oh no..

We only have 12 minutes to answer all 50 questions, the instructions require us answer as many question as we can so i skip those mathematical questions at first because which need more time on calculating and understanding the questions. After did all non-mathematical questions i just left very few times to go through the unanswered questions. Of course, i couldn't answered all the questions however i didn't feel upset because according to Shelyn ( the person incharge for today interviewe) nobody could answer all the questions so far...

After the test is a 15 minutes multimedia show to let us know the history, all the departments of Maersk, the founder and his son, the board, the business and etc which related to the company. I feel so excited when watching the video and started imagine if i could work in this company it must be very amazing. Haha...

Coming after the show was the personality test... We can choose either english or malays version for the paper and of course i chose english one...

I feel very happy, relax and enjoy for the interview, i wonder why, i attends few interviews before but i never felt so calm, maybe because this time has so many candidates interview together with me...

The worst thing is after i attent the interview i found i get a summon from traffic police due to i parked my car at the road side... speechless..
