QUOTE(crypt1k @ Aug 20 2009, 10:58 AM) Joey, you're saying that's your company hiring procedure in your HR dept? That's my criteria. With these credentials, it enables me to get jobs. Period. Regards, Joey |

QUOTE(mizzdreyhere @ Aug 20 2009, 01:51 PM) Same case here. I have been working in MNCs for the past few years since I graduated. My 2 cents worth. Work on your presentation skills and your writing skills. Of course having someone in the MNC company might help, but most of the time this is not the case because in the end of the day, the hiring manager would want to hire someone who will be able to drive the business and not just the cousin or brother or sister of so-and-so. In a month, I KIV-ed 2 (TWO) A4 Paper boxes. Each box contains ONLY Cover Letters (CL) and Curriculum Vitae (CV). Now, can you imagine how many applicants applying for a job in a typical MNC?At the end of the day its all about what do you have to offer to your potential company. Like deodorant mentioned, you have to "fight" with perhaps 50 other resumes for the same position. What can you do to make your resume stand out (not in a bad way of course)? Maybe you should work on that for a start. Regards, Joey p.s: Don't get me started with application through emails yet. |

Took me some time to read your posting (I didn't get some of your points though. It's too convoluted and poor paragraphing just kills it off)...Anyways, have you ever heard of "Life is not a Monopoly board game?"
Regards, Joey p.s: Thanks for sharing your story though. This post has been edited by Joey Christensen: Aug 21 2009, 09:57 AM |
