same case as mine. not to brag bout myself, i too performed quite well if not outstanding in relative to other candidates who 1st of all speak poor english, not contributing much during the group activity yet passed the stage. i still keep my humility and not being overly confident or trying to be in the centre of attention.
and i cant even pass the 1st round whereby 10/15 did.
do those people prefer average or slightly above average people rather than good performers ???
Added on May 12, 2012, 5:15 pmof cz i know those qualities that u mentioned. being good in english is just a part of it. problem is, during the group activity, i came out with brilliant ideas and of cz, i do not purposely show off and act like a leader. all of 4 team members harmonize pretty well. during the group discussion, all of the members voted me when ask "who do want to be the leader" as well as "which 2 people do u want to work with in the next project".
like i said, im not braggin on myself, its of no point. the problem is, those qualities uve mentioned, out of 10 ppl, i think 9 also dont possess. theoritically yes, people seek those qualities during hiring, but in this world, the good people, the pretty/handsome, the successful people are like 1/100. i mean if people can passed those rounds being weak in english in the 1st place, (even taking out the note when he forget his lines in self introduction), being passive or not enthusiastic during group activity, do not exhibit confidence and passion, why dun i pass as well.
in fact, 10/15 people made it to the 2nd stage and me as the minority 5 didnt. come on, even if im not that good or average, i dont think im that bad to become the 1st 5 people who failed. unless those 10 who made it are the powerful candidtes with great leadership, determination, loyalty, wudeva u named it but they dont.
wudeva u might say to rebuke me, i still insist on this. i still maintain to keep humility while not trying to hog the limelight.
and can u ever explain why a guy with 2.8 pointer managed to get the interview and the job while a 3.9 pointer whos excellent in curicullum as well cant even f***in get the interview. its not some rare or exceptional cases of this happen, my 4 friends whose pointer are 3.5+ cant fkin get the interview during the on campus interview.
and also about the slb interview, my previous friends who interview for slb said the exact thing. she's already got petronas but went slb interview for "fun"/ to experience it... therefore, during the session, she's being quite passive and didnt talk much but she pass the round. she didnt expect it. while her 2 malay friends (my coursemate as well, whom we all know to be great performers because we are with each other for 3 years, we know who is good and who's not) cant even got thru the 1st round same like my case.
kindly leave me a reason why!! im not trying to whine or whut, i jz wanted to address my flaw and improve. do we have to self handicapped ourselves in order to be recruited ???
I understand your frustration but just let it go, i see you keep on mentioning a few times/posts that you perform better and still fail in the first round of interview. Like you said you are not bragging on how good you are , but right after that, you keep on mentioning that others performed badly, cant speak good english etc .Like others mentioned so many times, cgpa is not all the employers are looking at, you need to perform during interview or write a good resume/cover letter, and of course a little bit of luck.There are still lots of companies out there , try again and you might be the lucky one next time. Look forward and try again, no point looking at the past and getting frustrated by it , as it wont change a thing. Just my opinion anyway.
