PSA Recruitment Talk
Today Ahdee went to the PSA Career Talk with Yisi and Xiangyu today. Hmmm after listening to the talk, hmm really makes u wonder about your future ya?
Looking Back, when we were Year 1 when we were busy playing and mugging, now when we are year 4, we are doing projects and planning our future careers as well as our grad trips. Hmmm Life does really seem to fly by. Don't you all agree?
So.... PSA? Hmmm Have to listen to more talks and see which companies are more interesting to join. Looking forward to the Toshiba job which allows us to learn Japanese and Actually work in Japan for a long term period. Hmmm I wonder if i stand any chances, working overseas would definitely allow me to learn more things, but there are so many things to consider like family and the food here. (Yupz ahdee simply likes local chinese food =p).
Hmmm since Yisi and I talked about some questions today, maybe some of you all would like to answer to these questions:
Q1) Where do you foresee yourself in 3-5years from now?
Q2) Can you foresee yourself working overseas?
Q3) Do you see yourself working in a field that you are studying currently?(E.g. Engineering Job for those in Engineering)
A1) Ahdee well.. foresees himself in somewhere challenging
A2)Hmmm... i would love to but whether i can cope is another thing.
A3)Hmmm i would love to start off as an engineer, then maybe within 5 years i would switch if i find that the engineering job is no longer attractive to me
So... What are your Answers?

Instead, do your research.. Go for a company that has a strong and stable grounding and has values that align with yours...
Not trying to be a naysayer, but Singapore doesn't have policies that force foreign companies to develop local talents, so don't hope on these empty promises by these companies...
Anyway sometimes its just hard to find wat u wanna do de ba.. at least thats for me.
hmm.. i dun have some plans in mind for the next 3-5 yrs. i'll kick start in my own field first, my childhood interest in electronics and electricity haha as an engineer. At the same time i'll look around for any other opportunities and stuffs or pursuing other interests concurrently.
*sigh* times are bad =\
kk jiayou!! this semester is my worst of all! =\
This is a common tactic used by MNCs and HR Practioners, to phrase their ads in a way that puts themselves as a challenge to prospective employees, especially students...
This plays on the gung-ho spirit of students raring to go into the workforce... But you realise, the company is promising nothing?
As for the many rounds of interviews, this is common procedure... Read the fine print, is the final interview really going to be held in Japan? Or is it just going to be held with someone from Japan?
Chances are, and in this economic climate, a "trip to Japan" may just be a teleconference with someone from Japan...
In short, don't believe everything you hear... Stop to think first, before you jump...
@eugene i think he knows that wun be so nice to work in japan ba, we all know that its not very attractive, but well.. sometimes trying out new things might not be that bad.
Everything and anything can become a good/bad experience which i guess we would learn from it.
