A new blog, a new me! (hopefully haha)

this past friday, the day after going to PeopleSupport, i went to HSBC global resourcing site in Commonwealth Avenue, which is pretty near Philcoa. I mean from our street, I could take a taxi and it would only cost about P50-60... that's pretty convenient, if i would ever be working there haha. ^_^

so i arrived there around 10 in the morning. the process there is more intricate compared to people support. first is the initial interview, then the exams, then the pre-final interview, then the final interview, then the job preview, and after that: the soon-to-be job offer.

(if you aren't interested in the narration of events, just skip the next three paragraphs ^_^)

so that friday, i passed the initial interview and was set for the exams which would be at 1:30. so to pass the two hours i went to their cafeteria. it was a good place. good food, and i liked it so i'm looking forward to be working there (hehe). so i spent the first hour there, then the other in their waiting room with a movie playing on the wide screen and free drinks. (haha) i passed the exams, and since it's already around 2:30 i think, i was set for the pre-final interview the next day at 9:30 in the morning.

so that saturday, i arrived there 15 minutes earlier. and i was called 5 minutes later. i passed the pre-final interview, but not with flying colors as the interviewer said, but i have a shot at the final interviews. (that was scary somehow, knowing you didn't ace it) and during the final interviews, i thought i wasn't going to pass it because there was the question of giving an example on how i used my skills at work. i gave examples on thesis-making (for the typing skills) and making of proformas, sales invoice and delivery receipts, but the interviewer kept on saying to be direct with my answers or something like that.... so on my third try at answering the question, i said plainly that i still haven't had any work, but i am pretty sure that i'd be able to use these skills on the job, and given the proper time and training i'd be able to handle the job perfectly. (that's what i said there)

i passed the final interview as what the interviewer said afterwards. wow i made it! hehe... so afterwards, i was sent to the job preview thing, and it's watching a video (a desktop capture video) which is of a call handled by an agent. so it basically shows the multi-tasking done by the agent during the call, so multi-tasking is a necessity in the job. afterwards the interviewer asked me a set of questions about the video and if i'd be able to handle it. and so i was informed that they'd give me a call on what my schedule would be for the training..
i'm just worried that it's already wednesday, and i still haven't received anything from them. the receptionist said that i'd get a call monday morning. so i called and they said that they aren't finished yet with calling everyone and that i should wait, and someone whom i met there (an applicant also) said that their processing is slow so i'd just have to wait....and that's what i'm doing now..

haaa, i hope they'd call. i really am worried about my application there. i hope i'm in.
