Interview Experience for SPA8i

It will be a boring story but still might be useful for others. 

Assalamualaikum and Hi!

As you can see, today I will share my experience for interview SPA8i. Some of you might hear about this thing. It is better for you to Google about this. 

I just apply for this without having any thought. It just I got influenced from my friend and I end up applying it. It was in 2017 right after SPM. I never thought that I will get the opportunity for the exam and interview.

We need to apply at least 10 positions in the registrations. So I just put Medical Assistant as my first choice but I put what I want in the second choice which is Radiology. I thought I am not suitable for Medical Assistant because of my results..

But suddenly, I got a message while I was studying my first semester in college. It stated that I was chosen to sit for the online exam.
At that time, I actually has forgotten about this thing and it makes me panicked. 

What should I do?? They said the questions will be a combination of general questions and some science related questions, and I cant even remember what I learnt at school. Gosh !

They give me date and time for the online exam. At that time, I just dont have any interest for it so I didnt study anything for it. No preparation at all. 

D-Day. Suddenly, I was trembling. What if I cant answer anything even though it is a multiple choice questions. Dont worry guys. The question is a little bit tough but still I can answer it without preparation so the one who try harder can easily tackle the questions. The time given is enough for you to think. Just think faster.. LOL

Im done. I think I did it so bad. 

One day, I suddenly received a message. Again. 

I passed the exam and got called for the interview. 
Damn it. Am I so clever or what ? 

I dont know what to do. At that time, it was in the middle of semester and the interview venue is at Putrajaya so I need to go home. My parents asked me to give it a thought either I want it or not. I need to be prepare if I really want the position. But, I really dont have any interest to be a Medical Assistant. 

I did not study anything. I said to my parents I just want to go to the interview and take it as my experience for the future. 

I did some research. I need to be presentable at least. It is because this is a formal interview for the government position. 

For girls, you can wear baju kurung with light or pastel colours and it is better if you wear 'tudung bawal' and not shawl. Wear 1 or 2 inch heels and not too high. A little bit makeup but not too much. Bring all the documents including your certificates. 
Boys, just wear your formal suits and leather shoes with blazer. You will look smart and handsome..

Be presentable and formal. You at least need to do better as it is our first experience for this kind of interview.

I arrived at 8 i think. I cant remember. I get so nervous when I saw a lot of people there practicing their lines. Gosh. I dont have anything in my hands. Some of them has tried so many times to get the positions and some of them is a newbie like me. 

Finally, it is my turn. 

Knock before you enter. After you hear the answer , get in and greetings. The one who interviewed me at that time was people who work in Kementerian Kesihatan Malaysia. It was two people at that time. 

Sit after they ask you to sit. Dont just sit. It will look improper. They start going through my certificates and ask me a little bit of myself. Prepare your self introduction. Short brief about yourself. 

They asked me if I am interested with this position and I said what I actually want. They understand me right away and support me as a student. They dont ask much since I am not interested for the position. Oh! Please speak in English unless they ask you in Malay. Refrain yourself from speaking in Malay. 

In the interview, they will give you the opportunity to ask any question. Dont waste this chance. Ask something about your interview.

Something like your attire. Is my attire appropriate for the interview ? Or maybe about the scope of work if you really interested for it. My question was , if I dont come for this interview, will I be ban to work for government?

The answer is it might be yes. You apply for it but suddenly you dont come. I think meant it like that. I finally understand. 

My turn was done at almost 1130 a.m.

It was a great experience indeed. I hope someone out there can get a new thing from my post. Goodluck for your interview ! 

A Day Trip to Malacca!

Assalamualaikum. 
My semester break for sem 3 finally begun. Finally, its my final year in Malacca. There are so much things that I want to try, to go, to taste and to run all over the place.
One of them is I really want to tour around the city of Malacca with my friends. Finally ! Wish come true.
A sudden plan but it is truly a satisfying moments. Lets go through this memento together... 

With this two girl, we tour around the city. FYI, we walked. 





The night view ate the riverside. It is so majestic and beautiful. We does not regret staying there until night just to ride the cruise! We end up arrived at our college at almost 11p.m




At A Famosa building. To go this place, we need to hike a little bit because it is on top. It was raining that day so it is so much harder to climb up there. But, it is once in a lifetime. We need to...



On top of  Muzium Samudera, Melaka. I think this is one of the famous place in the city. All the history ships was in there. With the price of RM5, we can go to 2 museums. It is so amazing and a whole new world for me. I really love museum but sometimes I need to drag my friends to go there...




It was rain heavily after that so we came to Dataran Pahlawan and Mahkota Parade to stay in there for awhile. Both of this is opposite of each other. It is just an ordinary mall like we all used to go.


The sun start to shined back. Here one picture with the trishaw as a background. We called it 'Beca' here!


With the museum buildings as the background ~



We got to taste a delicious 'Cendol' and 'Ais Batu Kacang or ABC' we called here. It was so delicious and located at the front of St Cathedral. Or Jam Besar I guess... I dont remember. But, what I know is it is so delicious and worth it. 


Jonker Walk. We just stayed there for awhile and then because there are so many people... 


Walking along the riverside.






We dont get to ride Menara Taming Sari so it will be next time. As usual, there are so many people even at night. The view must be beautiful up there. 


Night view of the city...


Christ Church, Malacca.



Finally, we get to ride the rivercruise. We was so excited for this so we decided to ride it at night. The scenery is more beautiful with all the lights. It takes 30 to 45 min for this river cruise trip. 




It was a happy ending. 

But still, we want to go there once again. There are some things that we doesnt have time to do at that time, plus the bad weather and tight budget as we are student. But still, it is a happy memories..

Thank you, till next time.
