Test of Everyday

Strait Times CATS, Jobstreet, JobsDB, StJobs, etc.. these sites might have been screamingly sore after how many times I have used them and raped its submit/apply button each day.

I am aware how difficult it is to look for jobs in Singapore yet it is much difficult than I thought of when I experienced it myself. 

Everyday is a struggle. 

Everyday is a test of personality. A test of how are you going to greet the people around you. People with different nationalities, cultures, and beliefs. A test of how will you deal with the nicest to the not so nice people. A test of how will you react when things you desire happen to somebody else except you. A test of how will you deal your life with humility and high hopes with conviction to pursue your big dreams.

Everyday is a test of attitude. A test on how will you respond to the situations of life you cannot control. A test on how will you perceive things when you cannot see what the future might bring. A test of how you are going to react while you wait, will you be patiently waiting or have been impatiently given up?

Everyday is a test of faith. A test of how much you have grown your measure of faith. A test of how long you're gonna stay firm standing securely. A test of how long can you put your trust and peace with the Lord.

Everyday, I put myself into effort to look for jobs despite the strict compliance of Singapore's Manpower system and very strong competition among foreign workers. Everyday, I feed my mind with positivity and possibilities of the success of every hardwork I do. Everyday, I put myself into deep faith that in God's best timing I will definitely have my own time for blossom.

My stay here in Singapore looking for work isn't just a struggle of looking for a better career but also a struggle of becoming a better person everyday. I am so happy that even I am still waiting for my job to come. I am so thankful that God has been always reminding me of how great He is and how great He can do in my life every single day. I am also grateful for the people around me that contributed to what I am becoming. Thanks to my parents and sisters, my cousins, my ♥, my friends, my financial mentors, and my God.

To God be the glory!

Applying for Silk Air Cabin Crew

April 5, 2014

 

French twist, high heels, and a lot of pretty faces were around the hall. I can say, most of the ladies prepared themselves for this special event 'cause this event might bring them to their dreams to work above the sky.

 

Different nationalities attended the event since SilkAir is open for all during that recruitment day. Singaporeans of course dominates, Indians, Thai, Malay, Filipino and there were also group of girls flew all the way from Korea on the same day just to apply. The Koreans belong to the really outstanding ones, because their skin were so fair and smooth, their smiles were really heartwarming, their outfits as well were strikingly beautiful. However, there were also some girls who didn't give much effort in their looks and style. Some wore party dresses and short skimpy skirts which I think weren't appropriate for the event. Yet, if that's how they thought they might carry themselves well, so be it! :D

 

I prepare myself so much for this event, since this is my first time to try and I've always wanted to become a flight attendant since I was a little. My cousin whom was a former Emirates Cabin Crew dressed me up so well, and made me look like I used to flew as a flight attendant. She did my makeup so natural and my hair twisted so that my face would look clean and tidy.

 

When I came at the hall, there was a queue of girls lined up to submit the completed employment form, 2 passport photos, and to show the NRIC or Passport and educational certificates. Then after that, each were assigned of a group number. My group number back then was 6.

 

When group 6 was called, we do arm-reach (212 cms, I think) followed by the group interview.

 

In the group interview, there were 4 panels and 10 interviewees. Each was supposed to introduce ourselves and say the reason why we went to that event. The first three girls in our group were Tiger FAs (not outstanding) which just want to try SilkAir they said. The rest were 3 Filipina(which I am one), 1 indian, and 3 average Singaporeans.

 

I make myself composed as everyone introduced themselves. I listened to everyone of them and I made myself look interested on what everyone was saying. On my turn, I introduced myself very well then I make sure I am looking to the panel interviewers and also to my colleagues to make myself interactive.

 

I thought I did well. Yet, one of the interviewers told me that I should be looking just to them since they are the ones that interviews not my colleagues. Oops.

 

I was thinking, what was the group interview for if I won't be interacting to everyone in the room?!

 

So, I just apologize and continue my warm smile then.

 

The last lady that introduced herself, the Indian(it's her second try), I believe she explained herself well, she was very relaxed and got the panel's attention in her speech. So, I bet that she'll be in.

 

After the interview, we were asked to go out of the room and wait for the panel's decision of who will be in for the next round.

 

boom badoom boom boom. HEARTBEAT.

 

From our group, only 4 got in. The three girls from Tiger Air and one Filipina. Me? I was booted out. The Indian didn't make it as well even she did well on the interview. However, the Filipina girl became my friend, she said that the next stage they've been to was the fitting of the uniform and one-on-one interview with a different interviewer. Then, they were asked to wait for a call within 2 days. If you didn't receive a call, the position might not be for you. Try again next time.

 

Before I went home, I looked around and observe.. I was surprised when the pretty Koreans weren't picked by the panel as well even they are much outstanding than the three Tiger FAs.

 

The panel didn't say any reason why I and the other ladies were booted out. My experience wasn't that harsh.. it's just maybe they are not looking just for that heart warming smile, style, and looks..

 

NO REGRETS! :D I am still happy and at peace that I tried it.. and be part of the pretty ladies who were booted out. LOL!

 

That's all!

 

HAHA!

 

 

The Crybaby is Off to Singapore

March 17, 2014

My last day at the office was heart melting with all the good memories and departing letters of great people who have been part of my fresh start in the corporate world.

As I bid farewell to my puppy love, its time to say hello to much greater!

Hello Singapore! I'm coming...

On my flight to Singapore, I was a bit scared since I'll be flying alone for the first time! Yet, the most frightening then, is the fact that, there are people I'll be leaving behind back home. My family and my love.

I don't wanna talk about the emotions that I felt. It just makes me sad and miss all my family, friends, and activities I enjoy most back home.

Ugh.. I'm crying now! What the heck!

I miss my mommy, who has been always there for me. She has been pushing me to pursue my dreams and encouraging me every time I talk to her about my plans. She always tells me that in God's time and will everything will fall into its place. And if it happens that my plans weren't God's time nor will at the moment, I can always come back home and continue my life there. She has always been supportive to me since I was young. And I am so grateful I have her.

Actually, she is also one of the reasons why I wanted to look for better (career) opportunities abroad. She's not getting any younger and some complications in her body are affecting her health. Since my dad will also be retiring in a few months, her monthly check up should be done regularly and the expenses for the medicine might be quite expensive. I love her so much. I have so much plans for her. I want her to experience to tour around the world and all the fancy stuff that she might want to do and have when she was younger, things she hadn't experience because she sacrificed so much for us, her children, her family.

I miss my baby, who has always been there for me too. I spend my last 3 months with ♥ everyday, every night, that's how much I want ♥ at my side. I am insanely in love with ♥. I miss all the hugs and kisses. I miss all the crazy things we do all the time, anywhere.

I want to stay longer with ♥ soon in the near future that is why I am so eager to work abroad to save money and time as much as I can, so that I can spend much time with ♥ pursuing all our plans together. I so love ♥ . If I could just bring ♥ with me in Singapore,  I would!

Enough!

Oh Anne! Be strong! You can make it! It's you who decided to do this after all.

Cheers! For greater things to come!

Well, good luck to me and may God's favor be with me in everything that I do!

To God be the glory! In Jesus Name. Amen.
