Important pointers for those who are going for
interview.
Dear Interviewee,
Please kindly do the necessary preparations before you come for your interview. Do know the address of the company you are heading
to and the way there. If you are unsure about the way to the company, you can always check the map at http://www.streetdirectory.com/ .
Print out the map and bring it with you, just in case you get lost on the
way there.
Regards,
Rachel Shi
It can be so irritating when interviewee starts calling you and asks u for directions. Do i even look like street directory? Well, i dun mind when people call and ask for direction but...
Here the story goes:
There was this interviewee called yesterday. She was looking for my boss and so i put her through to my boss extension. Who knows that my boss is not around... He went for lunch and naturally, no one picked up the phone.
She called again.
Fine, she said she wanna speak to my boss. Ok, i put her through his extension again coz i don't know my boss was not around. When i heard the phone keep ringing, i ask my colleagues if my boss is in. They said that he had gone for his lunch. Oh... my boss went for lunch!!! So i picked the phone n told her that my boss was out for lunch.
So she started asking me for direction to our office.
Interviewee: What's the address of your office?
Rachel: Alexandra technopark
Interviewee: I know it's technopark. I'm already there.
Rachel: Erm, so where's ur exact location now?
Interviewee: I'm at block 2, lobby B
Rachel: Block 2? There's not block 2 here, only block A and B and lift lobby 1, 2, 3
Interviewee: No, there's block 1, 2 ,3
Rachel: No, there's only block A and B. Okie, i think you went into the wrong building. So, how do u get to your exact location now?
Interviewee: U know PSA building, i just walked down and in * Blah Blah Blah.... she went on and i forgot what she said*
Rachel: Ok, from PSA building, it's a bus-stop away. U need to walk down to HP building and there's a underpass. Walk through the underpass and when u come out, u just need to walk straight and cross the road. There u go, that's the building. It's block A, lobby 2, 8th floor.
Interviewee: Ok, thanks.
Minutes later, she called.
Rachel: Hello, good afternoon, Rachel's speaking
Interviewee: Which lobby do i go?
Rachel: It's lobby 2 and goes up to the 8th floor.
Interviewee: Okie, thanks.
Minutes later, she called.
Rachel: Hello, good afternoon, Rachel's speaking.
Interviewee: Which floor is your office at?
Rachel: 8th floor
Interviewee: Okie, thanks.
Mintues later, * Gosh* she called for the 4th time.
Rachel: Hello, good afternoon, Rachel's speaking.
Interviewee: I'm at block B , 8th floor but i can't find your office.
Rachel: It's block A, lobby 2 and we are at the 8th floor.
Interviewee: Just now, u say it's block B, 8th floor.
Rachel: No, it's block A, lobby 2 , 8th floor
And she hung up my call. Orh.... bloody damn rude woman.
