Mostly are engineering companies,but other than engineering can also apply since every company needs accountant,hr,admin,hse,logustic,document controller,exec and everything. So i guess anyone can apply as well

Haha. Typical strawberry Generation Y. Oh well. That's what happens when kids with rich parents got showered with few k's every 2 weeks. Dang.

Hi, thanks for ur information is really a good guide for me.

i'd been jobless for 6months and it's getting depressing. I speak and write english well, graduated from good local uni and could not secure a decent job. my credentials is hardly relevant to most jobs out there for eg hr, sales & marketing, IT.. i worked in oil and gas company before but found lack of future prospect and unsuitable environment and decided to switch line of work but it's particularly difficult for me. jobstreet for eg posted jobs which require at least one or two years of experience which is understandable considering those people are the ones who had undergone graduate trainee programs and had the basic experience.

look back,are you the 'source' of your own problem?perhaps you don't put value in things that you're working on?how about your social network?nowadays it's inevitable to know 'right' people for your career prospect as these people might provide path for your future.the world is vast.know more people.

Nice guide, thanks for sharing the knowledge with us.

Hmm how about 'good looking'?

There are so many jobs outthere. Dont just sit at home, apply job street and wait things to happen. U have to be proactive.

Call the company, look for their hr personnel. Get into. Attend job fair.

blind enthusiasm sometimes

You are not looking hard enough, there's so many companies out there looking for fresh graduates.

Even if they stated need at least one or two years experience, you should have just applied for it.

And if you get an interview request, that's a bonus because they might actually be impressed by your resume and is willing to hire you for the position.

I say go for it. If the job interests you and you think you can handle the job, then apply.

If not keep looking, its there somewhere.

If i send my resume via email, and its to the HR meaning im not applying for any specific position, what should the email of my subject be?

Speculative application

Send resume to hr but not applying any position???

Ur email will be deleted immediately.

Very helpful for NEWBIE like me.

Some advice like saying no when its not your job,and overdoing your work can make wrong impression as employers can over rely on you.
Well, i don't know such things before and your writing has certainly added to my knowlegde.

I'l make sure i remember few of them !!

not all companies are like that, as I know, media prima and astro do have to option to deposit the resume to HR, HR will then decide which department to place you. Example this is from astro:

Found nothing suitable or matches to your qualification and experience? Fret not, you can email us your latest CV/Resume at future@astro.com.my

Hi guys, just a quick newbie question. I've prepared my 2page resume and I'm ready to send it out via mediums such as jobstreet, jobsdb, etc. Do I still need to attach a cover letter along with my resume? If not, then in what situation should a cover letter be attached along with my resume? Thanks.

No need.

You submit your cover letter if you know the exact HR personnel email address or you submit via hard copy to the respective person.

Thats call resume bank. Lot of MNC company has it. They had their own portal where you can deposit your resume in their database directly. No title needs unless you want to specify your job application.

For the email, you have to put what position you are looking for. This is due to the HR personnel will do sorting base on the job applied. Do not think HR will look at every single CV submitted. They wont entertaint not serious job applicants especially fresh graduates. Dogs and cats application are too much which flood mailbox.

Decide what u r looking for and not let others Decide for you.

Owh right, thanks for the feedback. Btw if I manage to get into the interview stage, is it necessary for me to submit a cover letter to the interviewer?

thanks for all the tips guys
