A Little Bit of Everything

So guys have u had a good week? Well, this week for me, good is an understatement!! I've had such a GREAT week! But very busy I must say. Most of you probably know I had my first interview this week on Tuesday. I was actually really really scared for this because it was a group interview. A situation where your performance is clearly compared to that of the rest of the group. But I was lucky and my group was soo awesome. I think we all worked pretty well together and hope everyone got into the next stage. Anyways, the group interview was set to be four and a half hours. We probably spent about and hour and a half on the group activity itself, and the rest of the time was spent listening to a presentation and talking with all the employees and partners over some food and drinks. It was really good, because not only was everyone really friendly, they were all down to earth and very easy to talk to.

After that group session, we were told that we would get a call the next day (Wednesday) if we got into the next stage of recruitment. The interviews were set to be held on Thursday of this week. After waiting all day for the call my phone finally rang. *sigh of relief* I was set for the next stage of interviews. This was a one on one behavioural interview with the partner of the service line that you applied for. So all was booked in and my interview was set at 10am on Thursday morning. Straight after I got the call I actually when to check out how to walk to the office by bus. (I forgot to tell you that my parentals dropped me off on Tuesday after we had Matsuri's for lunch). I was that excited. Except for the fact that this meant I had to find another make-up class for the make-up class that I planned to do on Thursday (to catch up on the tute I missed on Tuesday).

Rushed home to relax a bit before I went out that night (still Wednesday btw) to go play basketball with Canh and her group. I never thought I would play basketball ... its truly been a while. But after being psyched in by Lan's strong team building chants.. I did my best and it was fun!! Really fun! I was just scared that I would let the team down, but still managed to touch the ball at least a few times. hehee.. my team won and we all went down to moon cafe for drinks and supper. The losing team shouted. They are so ready for their revenge now!! But I don't think I'm playing next week. Next week is volleyball (something I actually played before).. but mid sems are coming up in less than 2 weeks and mum said that this week's game would be my last for a while. So I'm so sooo glad I went this week, even though Canh and I didn't get home till about 1am. Which was not Canh's fault.. I wanted to go and I wanted to stay. Besides I had a great time.

Can U see My Bags?

So 1am sleep.. and needed to get the 7.33am bus in the morning to make my interview. I was going to be hard. But I managed it. Not a yawn at all. It must have been the adrenaline. I was actually in St George's Terrace like and hour early. So I went for breakfast and walked around a bit. It been quite cold lately hasn't it. Then I strolled into the reception at 9.45-ish and waited. During the wait I was talking to another applicant from Murdoch. He seemed to calm my nerves down quite a bit. Then I got called in. He asked me a few simple questions and it was all over in less than 20 minutes. I was super scared now. The lady who arranged the interview with me said that it would take about 30 minutes. AND but the time I came back out, the guy I was talking to was still siting in the reception area. But I did all I could and all that was left was the waiting game. They said they would get back to me in 24 hours.

So I waited.. morning passed... afternoon passed.... even the night passed and yet nothing. I was really starting to worry now. Imagine going through all that and not being offered a position. I woke up this morning.. still nothing... when to uni and came home.. nothing. Nothing until 4.17pm the expected call finally came. I was offered a summer vacation position. FINALLY! I jumped up and down for at least an hour. So So happy! But even before the offer was made to me, I told Caz that I like the interview process (minus the waiting). I actually found it all really fun =)

So that was my week.. and throw in a few hours of study every night of course.. as I said mid sems are coming up. Gah all is good and I am tired. Time for bed. Night guys ... *waves*
