Tips on Job Interview

Looking back at my first post, I can say that I have a much better understanding of effective communication now. I used to thought that effective communication cannot be taught. How we respond to different people and situations is something that will just come naturally and we can only learn it base on accumulated experiences. Meaning to say that if I were to make a wrong remark or behave inappropriately in some event, the nasty feedback which I received would be my lesson learned that will warn me not to behave in such a manner again should the same situation arises.

However I realised that learning from these 'nasty experiences' would take time and it would also mean that I would have leave a bad impression on those whom I have offended previously. Considering that I am graguating this semester, I have never really give a thought about the tricky questions that the interviewer might ask me during inteviews. Having almost zero experience for permanent job interview, I was quite taken aback by the interviewing questions which were posted during ES2007 class. I am really glad that the particluar class made me mentally prepared for any of my future interviews and taught me on how to deal with some of the tricky questions.

I am glad that I took ES2007 this semester. Besides the part that I am really not much of a blogger and my english language have (much X 3) more room for improvement as I compared mine with my friends' blogs, I am really thankful for taking this module :) Cheers!!!
