QUOTE(lilballa @ Apr 27 2011, 03:31 PM) QUOTE(faceless @ Apr 27 2011, 04:00 PM) It depend who you meet at the first interview? If you have meet the HR only for the first time then most likely you will meet the department head this time. Sometimes you can meet both the HR and Department Head for the first interview. In this case you will meet a higher authority say GM. faceless answer most of it.In your case you had general character assessment by HR and technical assessment by the Manager. This time around the higher authority will do general assessment. It is just a formality because the assessment had already been check by the HR. You can expect the same question you get from the HR guy on the first interview. Second interview means u get better chance because round 1 is to eliminate/filter unsuitable candidates. U get another shot to make another impression they wanna get to know u better. Good luck. |

QUOTE(uniquesoul @ May 3 2011, 03:17 PM) Recently, i did see most of the job ads requiring/prefering candidates who are chinese literate in terms of spoken and written For those who are english /malay ed, does that mean chances are low for you to be shortlisted? Is there any hope for us malay/eng ed folks in searching for a job nowadays? Speaking yes, but written I seldom see that because most documents are in English. Unless it has business with China.I do not see how Eng-ed can lose out in this matter. As far as I am concerned, the job ads with written mandarin requirement is still minority. What kind of industry are you looking at? |

QUOTE(uniquesoul @ May 4 2011, 10:44 AM) Yes, its still minority but when it comes to interview, their feedback to this would be, " things would have gone better if u know how to read and write chinese,". which means is a bonus and perhaps you may get 97% chance to be shortlisted among the others who are also chinese ed. Very "racist" company... I think they are picking on ur shortcoming and use that to reject ur application perhaps? If written chinese has nothing to do with the job, why such preference? |

QUOTE(silrave @ May 5 2011, 12:03 AM) Then ur highest qualification cert should be suffice.You can furnish the SPM cert later. What is important is the interview. The SPM cert doesnt tell the interviewer whether u can handle stress or show ur any characteristics at all funny interviewer... |

QUOTE(ed0gawa @ May 15 2011, 07:46 PM) If i was asked Yes. If the position is urgent, they would employ the candidate who can join them the earliest.'When is the soonest you can start work?' 'Can you start work earlier than the date you mentioned?' And the interviewer talks about some of the company benefits ... During the 2nd interview.... but they never mentioned that they are hiring me.... does those questions means anything? |

QUOTE(waruna @ May 20 2011, 03:37 PM) Hi guys, Is it necessary in the first place? Basically how to write a thank you letter right after the interview? Can I just simply use this sentence: "Dear XXX Sdn Bhd, I wish to thank you for the interview invitation today, hope to hear some good news from the management, Best regards, MY NAME" any other ideas? TIA I interview & recruit ... I dun need this and even if u send it to me, it won't gain u extra points. |

Refer to sweet_pez.It is good to thank them on the spot. Express ur gratitude for being invited for interview the first chance u have to open ur mouth. After the interview, thank the interviewer again. That is enough |
