a new hairstyle for a better new start for me. thou' i'm still with the same co.
shall look forward to more interviews and get a new good one to settle down. agents make a good medium for u to get recommended, however many of them will give u a damn hard time by pushing you into something that you havent made up your mind and think if u can stay put on the job for the next one yr of ur life. just like this one i have came across. i was asked to go for the interview... i passed the first round, and waiting for the second round. just so happen that the day that they picked is one of my busiest day and i have to postpone the meet-up session. then this smart agent resort to generating pretty "convincing" lies like the hiring manager will no longer be around next week, big shots usually fly around... (dont wanna go into details) and try to make u actually not miss what-ever-you-call-it-as-opportunity. nonetheless, i insist i shall meet the hiring manager up the following week. and she arranged an appointment for me on Tuesday. a coincidence that I caught cold and took MC. so I smsed her to let her know i couldnt make it and ask if she could re-arrange. imagine, she can come up with this question "Then can u meet him in the afternoon instead." Apparently the first arrangement was in the morning and i text her at 6am. by 8am, she called back if i could make it in the day. even idiots will know how desperate she is. lucky enough the hiring manager put it till the next day. and i went for it. She seems pretty soft spoken and nice. i was kinda taken aback when she revealed that she had just taken up the role two weeks ago, the rest of the dept has left, leaving only one staff behind. I was dead shocked then i struggled not to be too transparent in my expression. After the interview, the agent called again and asked me to make up my mind. She went too far by saying that i was indecisive and i cant make things work. I know how much her commission means to her and how hard she is trying to make businesses. she was so desperate for me to say yes! till she bluntly put across that it is a very good opportunity she wants it too.. and there are other potential candidates that can qualify for the job and if i dont take it now, the job will just end up in some other's hands. bullshited loads of crap. but nutting gets into my head, cos' i believe in myself and i'm responsible for my own career path, she isnt. how crude these ppl can be to unintentionally make you suffer outta doing them a favour by making fast and rash decisions. she is definitely not a sales person you can trust.
i'm glad she dint call to disturb me today... hopefully i wunt have to hear from her again.
