Okay, after about a week of silence, I finally called one of my interviewers today (not the team leader).

Anyway, when I called the team leader's assistant, he said I have enough years of experience and etc but not enough exposure, what's the meaning? Experience and exposure is different?

During the interview, they ask me a few technical question. I manage to answer most of them but there are some which I have no idea what its about so I was truthful with them. Additionally, they say they provide two weeks training so I am glad cause I told them even though I dont know about it I am willing to learn.

Since I didnt get the job, the assistant said he is forwarding my resume to another department to see if others need me. He will only let me know by Friday. Now, disatisfied and since I will be around the area for an interview with ANOTHER company - should I go back to the previous company and ask for the team leader to spare me some time explaining which part I am lacking, why I didnt get the job and etc?

The response initially look so positive but in the end, I didnt get the job. I feel like I got scammed. If I go to the office and look to speak with the team leader - will I look very rude or desperate? Please advise cause I really want this job. Btw, I dont have the team leader advise, most I can do is ask for him at the reception.

This has remind me, my experienced 2 years back. Happened witha multi national company . From my opinion it is enough you just do a call . And asking where you are lacking. And does/she has anything to say you for an advice. So it will help u to see what interviewers have in mind, and so that you won't repeat it again afterwards.


Other depart? and other company?. It is doesn't matter. It is in your hand. If I were a fresh graduate, I will go for both. If I have 2 or 3 years experiences, I won't go that 'other department'. Would rather go for other company. Anyayw , just do your best, as like what Malaysian said ' Kalau dah rezeki , kita akan dapat juga' . Just give your best shot and be calm.

Response +ve at 1st? This always happens. Even when i had my 1st interview, i was the only one can answer the questions, was having high hopes, then end of the day, failed!
So, i will advise you to take it easy on this disappointment. One failure doesnt mean you will fail again. And think that they dont deserve you, not you dont deserve them.
Try to look for other company. If the company want to forward your resume to other department, be it. Who knows you might be lucky nxt time.
Cheers
