I secured a job

Well, it turns out that I interviewed with Kansai Coatings Malaysia – just neighbor to Sime Kansai Paint. Kansai Coatings is a 100% Japanese Company [Par Paint - its brand] while Sime Kansai Paint [70% Japanese 30% Sime Darby]

I will be working as almost everything in the company though called a Chemist – R&D, decision maker in many things, quality control – meeting ISO, troubleshooting, meeting clients if needed, getting wider business opportunities, production and manufacturing, customer service – the most important matter of all as stresses from the division director, Mr. Azham, whom I may work under next time… all for paints of homes and architectures. RM2k as it offers, on job training, lots of benefits, and given uniform and lab coat and safety attires for work [no need to crack my head of what to wear everyday].

Ms Jolynn Teh [HR], called just now [3pm] and she said the company would like to take me in! The interview was a bit passive… though both Mr Azham and Ms Jolynn were very nice of telling me about the job prospect, the divisions and the people in the work place, job description, benefits and so on. All my questions answered before I asked. When asked if I have any questions, I only manage to tell them about my convocation week when I need unpaid leave. They were positive about everything. I am happy.

They saw my CV and were very interested on my AIESEC profile. So I managed to tell them about opportunities in AIESEC and experiences I gained. They like outgoing people as it fits the job description. I did not gave them a definite answer on whether I want the job or not and instead I tell them I need to go back and consider first… after talking to my parents, I wrote a letter of appreciation to them and told them that I would like to go for the job… and just half an hour or so, Ms Jolynn called to confirm my status for the company – HIRED. I will be starting my work on the 1 August 2007 and at the meantime, I have to go for medical check up before I can start working.

I am happy: [1] I have income soon. [2] First interview, first job [3] parents are happy [4] David is happy [5] friends are happy [6] I am stepping into the corporate world after all – from fears to fearless.

God indeed is great – He just make my path goes so smoothly – yea, be obedient and rest will be assured by Him. And thank you brother and sisters for your prayers too.

Rubik’s Cube [1] – Do you have all your pieces?

Every human being has been born to wealth; it’s just that most people are temporarily a little short of money! This article has been written in an attempt to bring the gap between where you currently are, and where you want to be. Step by step, path by path, hope this will help you piece together the puzzle we most often refer to as “life”, so you can build a picture of prosperity in your life. Indeed life is very much like the Rubik’s Cube because we have all the right pieces, and all the right colours, but it is a frustrating, never ending process, trying to get them to fit together. Inevitably, it seem, there are always at lease one or two pieces we have left out.

 

Every day, all over the world, million of “dreamers” purchase lottery tickets, wishing for someone to fortuitously pick their names, and drop a fortune into their laps. These people never seem to understand that the real joy in life comes not from having money handed to them on a silver platter, but from going out and actually earning it themselves. Moreover, if the truths were known to you, you would realize that you already have the ability to achieve those things which you presently only dream about.

 

Hopefully, the following post will lift you to a greater awareness of yourself and your true abilities. However, keep in the forefront of your mind, one important fact: the rewards which you will receive in this life, material or psychic, will not come to you because of your potential, but rather, because of your performance.
