I'm sure some of you have seen this pic in one of my Facebook album.
It was taken when I'm in national service at Negeri Sembilan - Kem Debana.
I hope to become stewardess when I was primary school.
To me it is a SPECIAL job because I can work on the sky but not under the ground.
And I don't really like the normal 9am - 5pm office job. I really hope that I can travel the whole world! I love to see cloud.
But I didn't BRAVE enough to tell everyone.
Because I scared will they will LAUGH at my little, impossible and far far DREAM : (
As you know, I'm kinda FAT and UGLY that time.
So I was not confidence.
And I wanna gave up on that little dream.
Yes, this is me when I was 10 or 11 years old . *SHYYYYY
I'm so sorryyyy if I scared you : (
Now, I'm officially 18 years old. I still not dare to tell everyone that my ambition is to become a stewardess. I know I'm useless. HAHA
Until one day..
I saw an big advertising from The Star newspaper.
MAS AIRLINES was held an interview for CABIN CREW!
Then I read the requirements :

(Yes, I'm 18)

(I fluent in Chinese and Cantonese also lorh!)

(I'm not colour blind and wearing transparent contact lens)
6. Pleasant personality and a genuine passion in customer service.
(I'm a patient person)
I passed all the requirements!
So I decided to try my luck for the interview on 8th of June.
Not really many peoples know that I go for this interview just some of family members and friends who always support me. I didn't share it at social website. I felt shame if I failed. HAHA
Now I'm gonna sharing about the interview.
I arrived there around 9 morning. There already full with crowd.
Many LENG LUI (means pretty girl in Cantonese)! 90% of them wearing pretty Kebaya and also heavy make up. I just wore formal suit and simple make up because I don't have Kebaya. *Make up is the MUST!
This is my simple outfit for the interview. I was insomnia before the interview.
NERVOUS
This is my form *Please IGNORE my old old old picture.
Fortunately, I'm the no.270 candidates. I heard my from my new friends, there is around 500 candidates!
Terrible!!
After that, they asked me to sit at the canteen and wait. wait . wait.
I was alone and my mum was outside.*Only candidates can go in
Most of other candidates take part with friends so I was weird that time because no one sitting with me!
Aiyaa I doesn't care actually HAHA. Then I kept reading and memorize the notes which I prepared for this interview.
Suddenly they called around ten peoples include me went for the height and waist check. Of course, I was passed. One of the candidates cried out because she is over weight and she is shorter than me. I sympathy her a lot because she had no chance to try.
Then we hold at the holding area and waiting for the preliminary stage. Finally the called me after 2 to 3 hours! But worth because I get new friends. For the preliminary session, 6 candidates will be one room , seated together one row and face the panel interviewer. There were two panels one room.
Preliminary Session
Then they start the interview. They asked us to introduce ourselves and I was the last - - NERVOUS
After that, they asked a question.
"Tell me what you know about Mas Airlines."
And I'm the first. SHIT
I replied him, who is Mas's chairman, company slogan, aircraft which they using, destination and everything I have GOOGLE.
Other candidates smile on my answer but suddenly he shout at me .
"I know who is my chairman, I know my company slogan, I know everything about my company! I have sit here from morning until now. All candidates answer langsung sama! You all only know this? "
Then I shut up. And he called another candidates to answer but no one willing to put up their hand. I think maybe our answer all same HAHA If we didn't google about Mas, we won't know anything about MAS lo!
Besides that, I felt uncomfortable when the female panel looks at me like this *When I was presenting.
I thought I was out of topic when she looked at me like this! Then I started NERVOUS!
After the interview we waited at another hall again. wait. wait. wait.
They are really slowwwwww!
After half an hour, the result was out. I know I must failed because of the question but 6 of us only one candidate success in the preliminary stage! Actually some candidate really perform well in the interview but still failed. I really don't know what Mas want.
Although I'm failed in the last interview but I didn't felt disappointed because I learnt a lot things from the process of interview. I get some new friends who owned same dream with me. Some of them failed in 4 to 5 times at another airlines but they keep trying and never give up on their dream.
Proud of myself even though I'm FAILED but I learn from FAILURE. At least I had try to achieve my little DREAM bravely ! =)
So please fight for your dream at least try it before you say u can't!
Good Night! Peoples! =)
