Resume 30 January 2010

Is the time for me to prepare my own resume to apply for the job soon. The fist job I want to apply soon is from oil and gas sector, Shell. This big company is coming soon to our school to find some potential new employees. This is a quite tough company, after pass the first interview section still got different kind of barrier that need to overcome. Got one section is you need to attend their job recruitment day, and contribute yourself to activities that they do for you. This is to test your learning ability, personal skill, ability to solve problems…

Here is some guidance for writing a good resume that I found from internet:

A CV is a record of your personal, education and work details. It should be as up to date as possible. The layout of your CV is flexible, however ideally it should be no more than two pages long. The use of headings such as Education, Career History can help to clarify sections. Don't use fancy layouts as these can detract from the contents of your CV. Don't make general statements about your qualities. Make sure you can support your statements with evidence. Try to link your skills and experience to the requirements of the job you are applying for.

A good CV will include:

Personal Details 

Keep this section brief - your full name, address, email address and phone number are important. 

Education Details 

Usually stated in reverse chronological order, with your most recent experiences first. Include details of the name of the institutions, the dates you attended and the qualifications you obtained / will obtain.

Think about the relevance of the information you detail. You may want to include a list of relevant modules, information about projects and dissertations undertaken, average grades and/or skills developed.

Career History / Professional Experience 

All experiences count, whether paid, voluntary or shadowing. These are usually stated in reverse chronological order with dates to illustrate how long you were there. Focus on your responsibilities and achievements in the role and remember to highlight where skills were used or developed.

Positions of responsibility/achievements/interests 

These are all relevant sections to include and can be used to demonstrate that you are motivated to pursue other activities, have an interest in a relevant career and take the initiative to develop your involvements and skills. Try to focus upon recent achievements and what your contributions were, skills developed and outcomes.

Please remember that this is a platform for you to demonstrate your key attributes and qualities, recognise your own achievements and the key challenges you have overcome. This is your opportunity to demonstrate this and potentially could be your first step through the selection process.

I will share the frequent questions that will ask during the job interview and the way that to guide you to answer soon. Stay tune and get more.

Summary of the week 29 January 2010

These few days I feel quite lazy to write blog, feel like no time, but I am no idea with what I am busy with, seem I so free. Today, I met my friends that come from the same LI company in café, after finish their lunch, they just sit in the café with doing nothing, and I asked them why u all sitting here, and their answer is: we are too free, nothing to do. That is an impressive answer and I think this is the life that hope by many people that are busy with their stuffs, but sure I am excluded in that… haha. 

Start from last Saturday, I attended a cookies making gathering in Butterworth with friends. The main objective of the gathering is to makes hand-made peanut cookies and sell it for charity purpose during Chinese New Year, the total income will contributed into dialysis center, 洗肾中心 ( I am not sure with the English name, pls correct me by leaving me a note in comment). Besides that, the members (慈济) from the northern area will have this opportunity to meet and intercommunicate to facilitate closer relationship. Everyone have their own role in the cookies making process but it is quite boring since there is lack of job rotation. But I and my friends keep on volunteer ourselves to ‘change department’.

This is not the first time I contribute myself into the charity society. Last 2 years, I also got join a activity that visit nursing house and celebrate Chinese New Year with them in Penang Island. This is meaningful and if my time sheet is allowed, I will still join these kind of activities since I knew that the chance will becomes lesser and lesser once I step myself into the door of my working life. Take care of the society, donate money, donate your afford and the most important thing is to donate your kindness and carefulness. Just like the case of earthquake that happen recently, my friend which is very care of the social thing told me that Malaysia is a fortune country, we are free of nature disaster and yet rich with natural resources, ranging from tin for last few decade, to petroleum that is going to deplete soon. Man are not appreciate with the thing that come to them easily. I agree with the statement, and sometimes I am also one of that. Haha, I am not going to shape my good personality here, I just concern, and better I stop this before I get perli from those who are always perli me. 

 The next thing important in the week is my progress of FYP. I slightly start it already and the progress is very slow since I am facing with some problems constraint. I just finished my simple presentation with my lecture, and again he gave some comments on that… haha, it will never end, but still will end when the time stop me to move so in March. 

preparation

Wednesday, I attended Litlegras 10th concert. That is a good job contribution from my juniors toward it. Continue to Ganbate. Thurday, celebrated birthday for our course mate, CH. The celebration is pretty simple but special. We just brought some food and drink, enjoy the party just beside the main road. Ya, no table or chair, all the food is placed on the tar road. This is the most special one I ever see, but imagine is someone celebrate it from me, wao, I am sure it is touch if from friends, romantic if from lover… sure I will cry one la… wakaka.

food on the tar road

 This week, I had consult to the doctor because of continue diarrhea and lips crack. The lips crack is quite serious until I cannot open my mouth big big to bite and swallow the food, especially during my friend’s birthday celebration… I am to bite my food…:P…eeeha

Pulau Jerejak 22 January 2010

Total 15 of us, 13 Chinese and 2 Malay students attend this trip. This trip cost 60 bucks for each people and we depart from our campus at 8.30am and take the ferry on 9.30am to Pulau Jerejak. jungle tracking

The first activity is jungle tracking, this activity took about 30 mins for us to climb to the top of the little hill. Enjoy the natural is the main purpose of this activity but the species of the flora are quite limited. Some of us feel very tire while climbing the hill, but for me that is still ok. In this trip, this is my first time to experience the suspension bridge and flying fox. It is quite nice but seems the length of the suspension bridge and the flying fox is too short ==. Once awhile enjoy the natural that we are forgotten is nice and relax especially when we enjoy this with a gang of friends.

suspension bridge

After that is free time and lunchtime. We take our meal in Satapan Restaurant. The free time slot in the afternoon is too long, we cannot do anything and just cycle around the track. Haha, maybe it is an interesting activity for other, but since I cycle everyday to the school and come from kampung, so there is nothing special for me but it is still a good experience for us to cycle together in the noon, under the very big sun. 

snapshot before flying fox, will upload the photo next time, not yet grab from friend

After that, we went to wall climbing. The height of the wall is about 8 meter and I success to climb until the top. Haha, this is easy for me because I like to climb tree or tiang when I was young, but that is nothing to proud with, because most of us can climb until the top. don't know what is this activity called, just beside the wall climbing

After this, again is free time and waiting for the ferry at 6pm to sail back to the Penang Island. The weather is quite hot, and the only thing we can do is jump into the swimming pool. Too bad I not know how to swim, but my friend got teach me, but it is fail for me to learn that… haha, I am noob.15 of us, manufacuring and mechanic gang

In the evening, we are having our dinner in Queenbay Mall, Mc Donald’s before we go back with very tire. Some of my friend rate this trip with 4 marks, with 10 marks is full marks. Haha, got so bad? I don’t know, but actually it is quite boring, but since total 15 of us in the trip, so we can make a lot of fun inside there, this made the boring become not so boring, because all of us are not boring alone ==’’’. Haha, don’t get demotivated from me if you still plan to go this island, just go ahead, try what you never try before. 

Industrial visit 18,19 January 2010

18 Jan, we go to Motorola in Penang Island for industrial visit. This is the first visit in this semester and we do this visit is due to the company need our help to solve some problems in the production line. Actually we can’t say it as solve, but more correct one is learning in the real case of industrial, because I didn’t have the steady basic about the knowledge regarding with the thing the request us to do. The engineers in the department seem pour a very high hope on us to solve the material handling problems, they thought that this project is our FYP, by the way, this is only the smallest subject of us in this semester, which is only 2 units. Each of us have our own FYP to do, plus some of the core subjects to clear before graduate, and a lot of us have skip our class to attend the visit.

Haha, seems it soon will becomes a complaint thread. People there request us to do everything, including help them to calculate, solve, balance the production line, reduce 7 types of wastes, educate the operators in the line how to do to increase the performance, travel every week there to get the data and information… more and more they ask for, we had no idea with how we going to travel every week to there, seem different individual having their different time of class to attend, again the transport problem. When we become their employees? Maybe our bapa ayam (lecture) get a lot of advantages from that already ==’’’. However, cannot deny that we can learn something from there, need to emphasis here is to learn and try to solve, so don’t put too much hope on us, since if it is easy to solve, you all already solved it… haha, try our best ya.in Queenbay, lunch before go Motorola

Another visit to Seagate, in 19 Jan. In this visit, we can see a lot of testing and examination process is held on the very tiny component that will use in the hard disk. The purpose of this visit is to know more about how they use the technology of the optical measurement machine to do for the checking.

After expose to 2 of these factory, now we start to realize that the boring life of an engineer, haha… and very soon we will become one of them. If we make comparison within two factories, both of them need us to wear smock and their special shoes to get in the production line. Motorola with tighter security procedure, and the guard aunty is very fierce and ganas one, we all very scare. We need to take out everything and undergo temperature test before get the authority to go in. Em, I will say that Seagate is more well organized, more systematic, whereas the production floor in Motorola is quite messy, and also a lot of machines breakdown. There are many old folks in Motorola, but in Seagate, we hardly see them. This may imply that the benefit provided from Motorola is better, so many of them wish to retire from there… haha, this is only my ‘bias’ opinion, forgive me if I am wrong.

Yahoooo~~ today when I pass by the notice board in my school corridor, finally I saw my name is there—kindly collect your cert in office. Haha, I don’t want to make this thread again become complaint and show off thread, before I get banned. I say say only ma…

Actually we got take some photo after the visit, but I haven’t get it yet, will post back later… stay tune

Penang, Again 16, 17 January 2010

front door of one of the old house, classic one 

Komtar

This is the weekend that I hope since about 3 months ago, I am glad that this trip was still held on even it is difficult.

I watched Avatar, and that is nice movie for me, since it gives a lot of space of imaginary for me and a lot of thing seem only can actualize in the movie but not in the real world because people is greedy and ego. We are hardly satisfied with what we have and we always have a dream. Once it realized, another dream is queuing there. This is none stop cycle; people are hardly live without the dream. The matter here is how we make it balance. Haha, is the time for me to stop discuss about this before I am getting blur in it. Overall, this movie is nice, I like it. This movie is kinda got the feel of the animation called 天空之城, from 宫崎骏. I like this people’s creation very much, even it is an animation, but it always fulfills my dream of imaginary. Even the witch in the cartoon also got the kind heart, people can ride with sweeper and their kitten, a lady being cursed and become an old women and how she work hard to remove the curse…
天空之城, from 宫崎骏, same scene in Avatar

In the night, again we eat at the hawkers near to Komtar, is not mistaken is at Upper Penang Road. I enjoy the crowded and watching how people live their live, what is the different between them and I, and actually we are same. The next day, we take the free Central Area Transit (free CAT, miao miao) bus go surround the central area. Watch the people in the street; see the aunty come back from pasar… I am busy watching everything around me, everything is new to me and I seldom got such experience before. These are great and relax. Again, the breeze reminds me that Chinese New Year is just around the corner, you can feel it, smell it but you cannot see it.Goddess Of Mercy Temple, the oldest Chinese temple in Penang, with the present structure's foundation laid in 1728 (explaination from the flyer in get previously). Don't what ceremony in the temple, got lion and dragon dance, 5m dragon :P 5 meters

another temple

fresco in the temple, it is nice

In this trip, teddy bear reminds me to think rational in making decision after I graduate. I had thought of this before and all the things that you remind me I will take in consider, even though I knew it before, and thank for figure it more clearly because even I know the problems is there, but I cannot predict how deep will it affect me because I not know the exact situation. But for the mean time, I will still work hard and plan well for it. Since I am over protected before, a kampung boy that didn’t have a wide view of the outside world before, and you always say me like a child, this is the time for me to learn.

In this trip, I can see how my hero busy and how hard you work, I suddenly feel guilty because I am genius, genius of making people angry… haha, slap, piaksss~~~~~ aiyak. When I on the bus, I saw a people sitting at on the chair and keep open his mouth. Haha, too bad, because I am open my mouth quite often too, but still control in the ratio of 1: 2 if compare to yours. It is very funny, I appreciate all that you done for me, we are tired, but this is worth, I will try to make the trip simple in next. A lot words to say, I keep silent, you know what I am trying to say. Ting ~~ and poke :PAvatar

No matter what, i will always make u smile 14 January 2010

Em, good afternoon, I had fall in sick since yesterday and again it flu and cough. Consult to the doctor already and after take the medicine, it make me feel blur and sleepy all the day. I cannot even think properly where I am and what is the purpose for me to cycle and come to computer lab since I didn’t have any class or activities to do in the school. Sit at here, and start to think, the best reason I come to here is I don’t want to stay alone in the room, it will make me feel more sick.

For this weekend, no matter what also, I want to let you know, I will always be there to support you, I won’t do anything to hurt you, believe me. I will keep silent. No matter what, I will support you, don’t give up. Not know how to express, but you will know what I am trying to say… love. So if the time is allow, come on saturday ok? I appreciate what ever that you had done.I will respect your answer, even i very hope that you still can come here. However, no matter what, I want you to stay happily, ok? My heart will break if I see you like that...cheer up ok? huggy

Later 5pm I will going to my squash class, I won’t think that I will play it later, since I am sick here, just go there and relax, release some stress, and again to avoid the bore environment in the room will let me feel more sick to it. Yaya, I need to take care of my body, because something is waiting for me to go, the only thing for me to do is always get ready to what which is coming to me, it is beautiful, I knew and I will.

Dinner in a little kampung in Perak 8 January 2010

Went dinner with my friends in a little fish village somewhere in Perak just now, but I cannot recall what is the name of the place, since the name is very long (I admit am really bad in memorizing thing especially in number and name). The journey from our school to the destination took about 30 minutes and we need to go through the long, short and narrow road before we reach there. Since the road is narrow, it is very dangerous all along the way to the destination because we can see a lot scholar cycling on the road. The maximum driving speed for that is about 60km/h or even lower, but my friend always tend to speed up until 80km/h, or even higher, no matter how I give advice to him to more concern about the safety of the motorcyclists and cyclists. Keep overtake other car, lorry on the road… overtake 2 cars in 1 once, with 1 motorcycle coming from the opposite side, imagine… never see friend scold friend with same age, haha, can I? haha, I won’t scold people, just advise will do.

Some more, the motorcyclists at there no need to wear helmet, I can said that more that 90% of them didn’t wear helmet, and you will look like an alien if you do it. The maximum passengers on 1 motorcycle is up to 4 people, maybe there is more than that, just I didn’t see it just now. There is a big different phenomena between there with city, everyone at there seem having their own motorcycle, from those underage to… no police will tangkap them. Little fish village, relax, simple but quite boring also.

Now comment about the food, the food is quite cheap actually and we can’t get this price if we having the same things in the town (now I declare Nibung Tebal is a town :P). This coming Sunday I going to join the singing competition again… is again since loss for so many times already and this time the result will still the same since this competition is the bigger one, included all college or university students which is interested and talented… walao, am I one of the talented one? I am not sure, maybe. Good night to everyone, take care.
