-= Job interview =-
Since i passed out my chane on a work attachment ... i've decided to try to take on a job with a reasonable pay.. Guess what .. we've got one 4 $10 / hr ... as a student coordinator. The job is basically to match a tutor with a child-in-need-of-tutor. Another + point is that it is home-basedand on-time, on-target. But if that is so ... how do they track the no. of hours u dedicate yrself to work ? I am abit fuzzy abt the details but we din want the job in the end after thinkin thru' a little. Firstly, the job requires training .. with a fee of $12 ... which is like for only 1/2 hr ?!! Secondly, we still need to go thru a week of 'trial period' where we work at home and match tutors with parents. In total we need to earn $100 of commission b4 we can be accepted. To me, i think it's abit slow ... and with so many student coordinators around .. it might be take us a long time to earn the money. Moreover, they did not say a place is definitely ensured to us if we manage to earn that ammount. Haiya .. i also dunno what is happening ... So we move on to our next target ,.... Selling coms !! :)

Dunno why today got so many com ads.

Nig, Me and ah hui den went to aljunied for the interview .. The company is called something like Apolotech Computer agency ... yah and it's intel-based kinda company. I'm not really sure what the company does ... The man told us that intel is very angry about Companies like Compaq, dell, blah blah ... using their chips they sold to them to make hardrives which are not compatible with the mother board ... something like that .. and this cos lotsa problems ... like com hang ... and so the consumers blame them ... [[--] got meh ?] Anyway, lotsa stories ... but the offer is good. Approx $30 of commission per com sold ... and they say most newcomers sold 33 coms which ammounts to $990 :)
It last for 4 days ... and dinner + training is provided ... [i assume training is free cos they din say anything ... but dinner is def free] And the best thing is ... we are accepted into the job !!! :) Ah Hui, me and nig were elated ... Woohoo ... we got a very nice job ... Men i can finally get my discman and pay my chalet money :)... Thank god men..

Since we are so happy, we wanted to celebrate and play lan at bugis. But a small conflict (which i shall not elaborate cos it's really erm .. small ) arise between Nig and ah hui which in the end results in a lonely journey home for me ... Haiz ... But i am happy i got a job. Anyone got tips on marketting ??
