Went to a formal interview yesterday ... ok, "formal" interview here means that the interview was conducted by a company that I picked by myself.... actually I had couple interviews before, but all of them were conducted on-campus (i.e : I tend to be indifferent about those or at least not taking as seriously as the formal one does) ...
Let me talk about my job briefly .... the company is Sun Life Financial & the position I applied is financial advisor.... at first, I thought that position suits me cuz the job category is in Accounting & Finance , so I applied for it ... Later, I researched about the company and realized that financial advisor is actually responsible to sell insurance and there's only commission (i.e: w/o base pay) ...
So, I never expected to be hired by them ... nonetheless, I still gave it a try... cuz I wanna experience how a formal interview goes .... so I went ~
My 1st formal interview experience appeared to be a good one ~ the interviewer is a nice lady, she gave me a type of questionaire to fill up which would tell that if the job suits me or vice versa ... the outcome was that now isn't the right time for me to get that job =.= ""
Yeah.. that's the end of interview story ... I ended up spending $40 on transport (w/o getting the job) ~!! Apparently, that's a COSTLY experience !! sobs T_T
2 sides of a coin - whenever we look at the bad side, there must be a good side too right
Yeap, the good thing is I dropped by Tecumseh Mall (which I've never been to) and bought 3 skirts ... guess how much they cost --->> $17 in total ~!! that's the best deal I've ever seen in Canada so far ~~!! lol ^^
There are sooo many decision-making moments throughout life .... I used to hesitate very long whenever those moments come up .. But, I am glad that I hesitated for shorter period this time than I used to .....but this paid off with a little regret ... T_T anyhow that's LIFE ~!! You alwayz explore and keep probing till you found the right path isn't it ? that's exactly what I am going through now >.<
My next career plan - self-improvement weeks (from now on till Sept 9th) ... there'll be a KPMG on-campus recruiting info session on Sept 10th !! I am so excited that the long-awaiting opportunity finally shows up ~~yay ~~ I promise I'll do whatever I could to get in KPMG ! as it would determine how high I would soar in first full-time job of my life !~~
