Hello. I have recently got a good job offer at an MNC. However, I did went for another interview for a PR company yesterday just to check it out.

The moment I stepped into the office, I already knew I didn't like working there. I didn't care anyway. OK, so the interview started.

I was bombarded not by tough questions but rather taunts that further justified me not wanting to work there. There were many mistakes that they made but I will list 3;

1) I was scheduled for an interview there but apparently, it was out of the list

2) There was supposed to be another interviewer sitting in just to assist but he didn't show up.

3) The office is big and beautiful but the environment is dead

The interviewer then asked me how many job applications and interviews I had, I told her 7 and named all the MNC companies that have considered me in a very assertive fashion.

I even questioned her about the working environment here and she mentioned "open door policy" and all but I told her, I don't see that. Anyway, I already have a job and in the future, I do not want to work there because they don't respect their candidates.

I get only RM1600 but the indirect benefits is good lor. Some times you must look at their indirect incentives also.

got medical and dental benefits, 2 types of insurance - personal and company and opportunities overseas

haha...was looking around for this thread but somehow cudnt..now it's back. good.
nowadays, hscbc cyberjaya (HDPM they called it generally) offers max rm1800 even if ur a degree holder with/without working experience. if without degree, it might be lower. some depts might have extra allowance ( max 300 IINM), some even dun have allowance at all. if ur in a call centre environment, that's wat u get, working like mad but get paid peanuts. when i left, i heard that they're gonna lower the qualification down to SPM level cos most of the resignations are degree holders (survey results from the long lists of resignations)...omos every day oso got resignations in HDPM. How come i know? cos i've been in & out the HR for the past 2 mths. l left for a happier working environment.

Hehe, is it because most degree holders think this is a dead end job? (Especially the call centre)

Actually banks are a very good place for progress provided if you are really resistant and determined to remain.

I have a friend who works for a bank. He started out as a junior accountant, had an extremely stressful work life.

He didn't quit though and after 2 years of working there, he applied for interest free loans, bought himself a condominium and a nice Camry. He is only 26.

So, work for a bank but be steadfast. Given the opportunity, I would also choose working for a bank.

HSBC call center is not really what you can call a bank job.
