I've seen so many appalling CVs and coverletters, you won't believe it. Example 1: CV with 1/4 of it filled with a name in 36 sized fonts, example 2: cover letter that started with which hospital she was being delivered, example 3: CV and cover letter that come in power point format.... Most of them are from Malay candidates unfortunately. But that being said, there are more Malay fresh graduate applicants. It's a pity that their Universities haven't taught them simple skills to apply for jobs. These universities didnt even expose them to channels in which they could get some tips. Some were not even aware that English is the common language in a workplace and hence asked for interviews to be conducted in Malay.
This also need to depend on university to teach ar?
People with some analytical skills would know how to do it properly enough la especially after a few rejections. If you didn't bother to ask why you're chosen and/or how you did during the interview (asking for feedback) then you shouldn't blame university or anyone else that you can't get a job. doh.gif

Later finding life partners, house, have babies also wanna blame university/government because they never teach us. rclxub.gif

what people should also focus on is why even high incident of Malay companies "discriminate" against hiring Malays as indicated in this "survey".

The total figure provided is roughly 300k jobs ( excluding government jobs) , there are more than 10 millions princes and princesses in Malaysia . Imagine only 5 million of them needed a job, these companies you mentioned only can provide 25% of the princes and princesses a job.

Then you said the GLCs can acquire more companies, true . but then they still have to rely on the previous senior management of the companies and most of whom are not princes and princesses. For example, S P Setia .

And not to mention in order to maintain their political status and also due to religion reasons, the princes and princesses just mass produce without planning . ( financial, educational planning for their offspring) .

Thats why i said no mater how GLC works, they can never have enough jobs for ALL the princes and princesses.

If my opinion, most of the unemployed grads , most of whom are  princes and princesses of Malaysia SHOULD NOT HAVE BE admitted into the universities/degree factories in the 1st place .
*
That means they are worst possible Kundera of grads available lor. Can't be fitted anywhere at all.
