Hard not to read when you are replying to almost every post in here.

Thread from being about interns now being about you lecturing us how to treat interns. Nobody cares for your opinions. If you insist on your opinions being heard/read, please create your own thread.

thanks

normally intern not interviewed.. just assigned by university or college.

Not exactly, but my job involve games too, so it's not that bad.

during my uni time..i apply for intern thru jobstreet
guess wat..one company call me directly tht i never apply before,they offer me intern for 3 month,ask me come their office interview by HR..
done interview immediately accept me.1st day come,thn relevant department people in charge only come interview me

you can always ignore. i've done it to many users. only time i see their reply is when they quote me or reply me and i open the thread.

just a suggestion.

if you find my post not useful, feel free to.

and remember, when we talk about stories about intern, there's bound to have discussion about why the interns failed. from posts from many "Managers" here, we can see they have no sense of self reflection at all, it's always the intern's fault.

i'm sure ur 1st day of work you will have a small talk with ur superiors even you've done ur interviews right?

not hard to figure out which intern has the heart to learn and which one doesn't.

if the intern doesn't have the heart, just be clear with them, tell them what you expect and what you not expect, do not cause trouble or affect other worker's morale, and at the end of the day i will let you finish the internship.

if companies are grudgy about that rm500-1k internship money and expect every intern to be productive + become an asset, they should just hire fresh grads instead and stop the intern nonsense.

if ur company are too poor to afford few interns, don't participate. so why companies still do that, they hope by participating they can get their company exposed to attract higher quality freshgrads. but they never ask themselves, are their company attractive to these freshies if they can't even manage interns? would you work under a company as full time trainee if you hear how companies ignored inters and let them handle jobs even highschooler can manage like filing?

it's usually a trap for standard companies.

to a certain extent la. but this one concerns safety and law leh. if he said hes not certified to drive in malaysia we would have found ways to accomodate him. i mean, i wouldnt want to work in a car with him as a driver right? lol

Your senior colleagues rasa her siham already

Depends too, must have work life balance ma

Lol.still ah? Buat2 like dunno... But suddenly can I xplain like pro.

work during office hour & balance off office hour.

if a company staff can be at least 70% efficient, meaning out of 8 hours office hour they actually work 5 hours, then everybody can go home early, if i'm the boss i would even announce a 1 hour cut for office hours. gomen sectors would be very efficient.

but in reality, the general efficiency of employees are less than 30%. they may look like they are working 8 hours a day, but they maybe just put in 2-3 hours of "Real Work" per day. rest of the time either ular surf internet, smoke break, toilet, breakfast, teatime, play handphones, purposely doing things slowly, procrastinating, chit chatting, job searching, then after prayers dunno go where.

of course, not all people do that, but majority Malaysian workers do that.

then when work cannot finish, claim OT.

this is why many companies already have 9 hours Mon-Thur, Friday half day system because they know on Friday afternoons company efficiency is like Zero.

Yeah. Normally... College will say... Woahhh pls take my students... Then show of their study programs to show like the students very pandai2... Then if something goes terribly wrong senyap saja...

Unless u find your own internship.

Both of my colleagues are girls. I was the only guy in the department.

1) ur co intern sound like banggla standard
2) why ur co need to hire foreign intern?
3) intern salary is lowlike RM 800? then no impact lah, you sack him also, he learn his lesson not to screw up with his resume, and restart life again

True, but not mine. No half day on Friday, company efficiency isn't their problem, it's ours.

Dont hv story about company fired intern.
But my ownself as intern fired the company after 3weeks.
Luckily my internship is optional. No credit hour
The best part after grad working as engineer, my x colleugue did ask me about internship company whether can choose as supplier, i straightly told her dont waste your time. Karma do strike back.

Why, they can still rasa her siham what

in Europe people work 5 hours a day in some countries. they aren't lazy, just efficient.

that is why most time ang moh if really got task they will work not ular.

in Malaysia & Japan, even work 12 hours a day not enough to finish task on time.

dun say Japan efficiency high, it's not becoz Japanese lazy, but becoz the economy of Japan, big corporations are hiring as many people as they can to fulfill the social responsibility by offering job opportunities so majority Japanese don't end up jobless. so they have too many employees and too little tasks to do, this is why many stay back in office of OT despite not having tasks, in hopes they can look busy and look like an asset to the company.

Malaysia different story, lazy Malaysians.

when you say they, ours, who are "they"?
