My Journey here..
My cousin Nicole who recommended me this job. I didnt expect myself to be in the working class that fast. End of 2007, I applied for relief teaching on MOE website. By the end of the year, I did not receive any calls from the schools, so I thought the chance of being a relief teacher is slim. So, i started to ask around my friends, my relatives. I remember on 31st December 2007, when I was at my friend’s house counting down to the new year, my cousin asked me if i want to help her in her finance department. So i agreed and an interview was arranged. A few days before the interview, I typed out my resume and emailed to my cousin. Then I went to the company website to look for the photo of the MD, who will be interviewing me. Need to get myself prepared before the interview. I started to “role-play” how the interview will be like and think of the questions that will be asked. The day for interview, I was super nervous. It was my first formal interview, compared to what I went through in the past. The interview went unexpectedly smooth. James wasnt as stern as what I thought and the interview wasnt as scary as what I thought. I enjoyed the interview and James was friendly. I thought I will screw up.

Some crazy things I did
I declared 14 February as “Happy Colleagues’ Day”. (http://www.simplyjas.com/blog/2008/02/15/happy-valentines-day-happy-colleagues-day/).
