Trying to be one of Singapore Girls! ^^

Mon, 08.04.13

Well hey! I just had an interview with SIA! Here I want to share a little bit… hope it helps..^^

So, the first interview started on April 6th at 9am.. I woke up at 3am then arrived at JDC at 6am.. I am the very first person… imagine how determined I am! hahahaa.. I’m so nervouss…. and I got no. 002!

1st stage - educational background: I have no worries about this as I already got my bachelor degree and some working experiences :)

2nd stage - height/ weight check: HERE I AM SO PANICC!! I thought they would give us like a red tape mark on the wall so I just need to reach it with my arms (i’ve practiced it at home).. but, they don’t! They really measured it…. and OMG… I passed this!! (Before, I measured my height at home and it’s just 156 cm). I wonder whether I or them did the mistake).. hahaha.. my weight also reduced by 1kg.. They said I’m 48.6kg.. so, I really think that GOD IS WORKING HERE.. OMG.. AMAZING GOD… I’M SO HAPPYY! hahahaa..

3rd stage - Mass introduction plus Questions, Lots of questions: We moved in a group of 10 to a room in which 2 interviewers sitting in front of us. A Singapore man and an Indonesian woman. They are very nice, but very straight point. So, we were told to introduce our self and what is service in 1 minute. I spoke then… I’ve practiced my introduction like dozens of times, but I’m quite nervous that I made a mistake at the end.. :P But, I quickly said sorry and then thank God… I continued my speech until the end hahahaa.. about what is service.. I don’t really remember what I speak.. I said service is what makes us different, what makes people come back. It’s about loyalty and how to make customer happy, and so on… (seriously I’m blank.. *just tried to do your best in that moment!).. After that, we are told to wait like 10 minutes.. and taraaa.. a man come to us said that we are passed! so happy!! hahahaa.. we happy every time we passed a stage… it’s an amazing feeling! x) So, 6 of 10 is luckily get into the next stage! You know what… It’s seriously such a miracle.. because later I heard that only like 1 or 2 or 3 people get passed from 10 ppl.. or maybe, they appreciate us who came very early to get the interview :))

4th stage - English written test: We are then asked to do an english test. There are 3 sections. First, fill in questions which involves a basic grammar. Then, reading with 3 multiple choice questions. Last, we are told to write short story around 70- 100 words about Indonesia. Hemm I think the test is not something you should worry.. It’s not that hard :) For the essay, I write about Jakarta with its food, Bali with its beach, scenery, and so on… hahahaa.. I do hate writing actually, but I enjoy this time :) We have to wait like 10 mins then.. A nice girl checked our paper test, and then we all passed! hahahaa.. I was told to come back again tomorrow at 8.30am.. :)

5th stage - 1 to 1 interview: So, this is the day… I come very early again today. Like 7am and my mom has no idea where I’m going to.. hahaha.. When I come, there is still no one there.. So, one by one people come.. I met some new friends and shared a bit about what we’ve been through yesterday.. so good to feel that we all suffered! hahahaa.. Okay, stop laughing. My name was first called, and my interviewer is Mr. Joseph.. This guy is a Singaporean. He had that serious look, but I’m sure he is a good and nice guy.. :D So, first, he asked to me read a passage.. It’s about a man complaints about the lavatory since it was full and dirty.. What I have to do?? I said I will say sorry for the inconvenience.. but he said, it’s not your fault.. we argued a bit.. I said that people like it when we say sorry, blablabla, and I suggest some weird inputs.. hahahaa.. I said I will tell the supervisor to get more lavatories in the plane.. LOL.. WHO AM I??? hahahhaaaa.. It’s really stupid huh.. but well, rice already become a porridge.. so I just continued.. at the end, he said I don’t solve the problem.. T.T Well, Next, he asks me lots, seriously it like tons of questions!! hahahaa… Tell me more about youself… This is his first question and I’m just started blank.. I’ve repeated many things like in my introduction.. fuuhh.. :( then, he asked me about my family.. I said I have a great family and when he knows my dad is a lawyer, he is quite shocked, and asked whether my parents know I’m applying here. I said no, but I’ve already asked the permission and they support it.. hahahaa.. I just want to make it as a surprise if I get through.. (*to be honest, I don’t have too much confidence..that’s why I don’t tell them).. :P anyway, he continues the question.. Why I want to be a cabin crew? Do you have maid? Do you know what maid did? Yes, Yes, doing anything that we don’t like to do..!! hahahaa.. It’s true.. but I tried to convince him that I do love this job. I love people, I love traveling, I love service, and my mom always taught me that a woman should be doing that kind of stuffs. :) Next, he asked when I wanna get married, and until when I want to get this job? I said I don’t want to marry too soon because I have little brother and it’s not east to raise a child. I plan to be in SIA in 2,3, or 5 years, and then maybe I could move to ground positions.. Then, he rejected it.. He said, No, you cannot. Hemmm.. I’m speechless.. Everytime I speak, he refused me. So, I said.. okay, as long as possible.. hahahaa.. well then, there are more, more, and more questions he asked me.. I forgot all.. but I remembered it was a nice conversation.. even I’m so nervous, I laughed most of the time.. :D I got to wait then, after 15 or 20 mins conversation I think because it’s quite long.. A man called my name, and said.. CONGRATULATION.. please come again for the final interview.. WOHOOO.. how happy!!!!!! but, it’s on May! I’ve waited to wait like a month for the certainty… but no worries, I’m thanking GODDD…. muahmuahmuaahh :D

MAYYY!!

Oh well, you have no idea how I’m waiting for the emaill… It finally came on early May, and it stated that the date for final interview is May 18th, 2013… still so long huh… A day really like a year when you wait for something… :( anyway, there are 36 people passed through and my schedule is at 11am.. The place is in Ritz-Carlton Kuningan..

May 18th, 2013

Sooo,, before this day, I went to saloon, updo may hair, mani pedi my nails, waxing, and so on….. I’ve prepared my best! :D

I came not too early today, because I have to go salon in the morning hahahaa.. I cannot updo my own hair :P I get there at 10am.. but still waiting.. it’s quite late.. I finally get my turn at 12pm, the last person before all the interviewers go to lunch! Hmf… I really hoped they are not bored yet….! So, here.. first I have to do kebaya and skin check.. I wear the kebaya and it was gorgeous..! I love ittt! hahahaa.. then a woman named Clara checked my skin below a very bright light.. my face, turn left and right, looking for any pimple.. then my arms, my feet.. if there is any scar or tattoos, or anything… huff… then she asked me to walk.. I walked.. BUT, she stopped me and said that I’m used to bring heavy back on my right side shoulder.. AM I? I have no idea.. omg.. I thought she will reject me because of that.. :(

I then moved to a room with 2 interviewers inside… there are 2 men ready with lots of questions… So, the first thing they asked is.. What do you do now for living? Hahahaa.. I’m unemployed right now.. so, I think I’m just blabbering.. hahahhaa.. I’m too nervous I forgot what I said! arrr.. again, they asked about my family, and is it okay to stay in Singapore.. of course! I like Singapore! It is clean, orderly, and it’s a place worth living.. I’ve been to Singapore like many times.. LOL.. (not that much actually.. hahahaa.. It just come out from my mouth).. hahahaa.. at the end, they asked me to read a passage.. I just read it, first I read it too fast.. but then I managed to slowly read it :) Last, they asked if there is any questions I want to ask.. haha.. I said I wanna asked the result.. but they don’t allow it.. :P well, at the end.. I was out… and I went to toilet a while.. and and and and and the guy who always announce the result come out from the door, meet me, and said…. CONGRATULATIONS! wooooooooo!! i almost can’t believe it that I asked him several timesss!! wawwww… it’s really amazing! thank You God.. x) I was then asked to come again around 1pm because they wanna take a break… fuhh… I come happily, filled the employment letter,,, and wait until 3pm for briefing about the medical check up.. :)

MED-EX JAKARTA: May 22nd, 2013

So, it’s not finished yet. I have to go medical check-up around Kuningan.. and I’m so afraid. It’s the first time I did medical check up! hahahaa.. So, they checked my eyes, and then get my blood, x-ray to see my lung, and then a common medical check up by the doctor. I got minus on eyes, so later I was asked to go checking my eyes.. I don’t use contact lense before.. and now, they suggest me to do so even I only have 0.25 and 0.75.. -_-“ but well, it’s okay.. hehehe..

Now, I’m still waiting for the call… to have med-ex in Singapore… fiuh.. seriously, it is not a short way to get in the flight.. wish me luck! :D

Fighting!

I realize now.. To be what they call “Success”, someone need to work hard and take up more courage. Things that we want will not come by itself so we gotta reach it with our both hands and sweat. Everyone has their own difficulties. What we see on the outside might be totally different with the inside. It’s not that easy . To be success, we need to work harder, and there will always thing we have to forgo. We cannot have all we want. Moreover, nothin’ is instant..

19 Things To Stop Doing In Your 20s
1. Stop placing all the blame on other people for how they interact with you. To an extent, people treat you the way you want to be treated. A lot of social behavior is cause and effect. Take responsibility for (accept) the fact that you are the only constant variable in your equation.
2. Stop being lazy by being constantly “busy.” It’s easy to be busy. It justifies never having enough time to clean, cook for yourself, go out with friends, meet new people. Realize that every time you give in to your ‘busyness,’ it’s you who’s making the decision, not the demands of your job.
3. Stop seeking out distractions. You will always be able to find them.
4. Stop trying to get away with work that’s “good enough.” People notice when “good enough” is how you approach your job. Usually these people will be the same who have the power to promote you, offer you a health insurance plan, and give you more money. They will take your approach into consideration when thinking about you for a raise.
5. Stop allowing yourself to be so comfortable all the time. Coming up with a list of reasons to procrastinate risky, innovative decisions offers more short-term gratification than not procrastinating. But when you stop procrastinating to make a drastic change, your list of reasons to procrastinate becomes a list of ideas about how to better navigate the risk you’re taking.
6. Stop identifying yourself as a cliche and start treating yourself as an individual. Constantly checking your life against a prewritten narrative or story of how things “should” be is a bought-into way of life. It’s sort of like renting your identity. It isn’t you. You are more nuanced than the narrative you try to fit yourself into, more complex than the story that “should” be happening.
7. Stop expecting people to be better than they were in high school — learn how to deal with it instead. Just because you’re out of high school doesn’t mean you’re out of high school. There will always be people in your life who want what you have, are threatened by who you are, and will ridicule you for doing something that threatens how they see their position in the world.
8. Stop being stingy. If you really care about something, spend your money on it. There is often a notion that you are saving for something. Either clarify what that thing is or start spending your money on things that are important to you. Spend money on road trips. Spend money on healthy food. Spend money on opportunities. Spend money on things you’ll keep.
9. Stop treating errands as burdens. Instead, use them as time to focus on doing one thing, and doing it right. Errands and chores are essentially rote tasks that allow you time to think. They function to get you away from your phone, the internet, and other distractions. Focus and attention span are difficult things to maintain when you’re focused and attentive on X amount of things at any given moment.
10. Stop blaming yourself for being human. You’re fine. Having a little anxiety is fine. Being scared is fine. Your secrets are fine. You’re well-meaning. You’re intelligent. You’re blowing it out of proportion. You’re fine.
11. Stop ignoring the fact that other people have unique perspectives and positions. Start approaching people more thoughtfully. People will appreciate you for deliberately trying to conceive their own perspective and position in the world. It not only creates a basis for empathy and respect, it also primes people to be more open and generous with you.
12. Stop seeking approval so hard. Approach people with the belief that you’re a good person. It’s normal to want the people around you to like you. But it becomes a self-imposed burden when almost all your behavior toward certain people is designed to constantly reassure you of their approval.
13. Stop considering the same things you’ve always done as the only options there are. It’s unlikely that one of the things you’ll regret when you’re older is not having consumed enough beer in your 20s, or not having bought enough $5 lattes, or not having gone out to brunch enough times, or not having spent enough time on the internet. Fear of missing out is a real, toxic thing. You’ve figured out drinking and going out. You’ve experimented enough. You’ve gotten your fill of internet memes. Figure something else out.
14. Stop rejecting the potential to feel pain. Suffering is a universal constant for sentient beings. It is not unnatural to suffer. Being in a constant state of suffering is bad. But it is often hard to appreciate happiness when there’s nothing to compare it to. Rejecting the potential to suffer is unsustainable and unrealistic.
15. Stop approaching adverse situations with anger and frustration. You will always deal with people who want things that seem counter to your interests. There will always be people who threaten to prevent you from getting what you want by trying to get what they want. This is naturally frustrating. Realize that the person you’re dealing with is in the same position as you — by seeking out your own interests, you threaten to thwart theirs. It isn’t personal — you’re both just focused on getting different things that happen to seem mutually exclusive. Approach situations like these with reason. Be calm. Don’t start off mad, it’ll only make things more tense.
16. Stop meeting anger with anger. People will make you mad. Your reaction to this might be to try and make them mad. This is something of a first-order reaction. That is, it isn’t very thoughtful — it may be the first thing you’re inclined to do. Try to suppress this reaction. Be thoughtful. Imagine your response said aloud before you say it. If you don’t have to respond immediately, don’t.
17. Stop agreeing to do things that you know you’ll never actually do. It doesn’t help anyone. To a certain extent, it’s a social norm to be granted a ‘free pass’ when you don’t do something for someone that you said you were going to do. People notice when you don’t follow through, though, especially if it’s above 50% of the time.
18. Stop ‘buying’ things you know you’ll throw away. Invest in friendships that aren’t parasitic. Spend your time on things that aren’t distractions. Put your stock in fleeting opportunity. Focus on the important.
19. Stop being afraid.

2013: Brand New Me

31.12.12

Heya, tomorrow is 2013 and I’m here writing a blog again..

Let me first thanking God for His favor all the time. Saying thanks won’t be enough tho.. I’ve seen so many impossible things (for me) happened. When I was in stuck, feeling so down, somehow God always shows His Greatness.. How come I not love Him in that way!!? LOVE YOU, JESUS! <3

I also know people around me were not a coincidence. They were sent by God because once again, His Goodness! :) I am surrounded by parents who love me so much, by friends that always comfort in joy and sorrow, and by the people who nicely help me at work.. Through thick and thin, they were there and I can’t describe how much they worth to me. So speciaaaaal…

Now, for 2013, I’m asking *again* O Lord… for Your favor.. to let me know what is my passion in life. To let me do work according to Your will, which does not deviate. Just let me be a better person that can be useful, helping as many people as possible. No more bad attitudes, grudges, complaints, and so on. That’s my wish for a brand new me in 2013. AMEN.

xx,J
