So I've been back in Singapore since February,
and this time round at least,
things appear to be slightly better.
I've had two interviews so far.
None of them with Singaporeans, of course.
But hey, I'm still glad.
One advantage of living in a multicultural hub.
So the interview this morning went
incredibly... bad.
Not because of the interviewer.
I mean, if it were,
you'd definitely be hearing about it from me,
along with a few... *ahem*, choice words.
I think it was mainly due to a lack of preparation.
Maybe I was overconfident.
Maybe it was because I hadn't had my coffee yet.
But man oh man.
I was struggling to put together coherent sentences,
and hell, even searching for the proper words wasn't easy.
And for some insane goddamn reason,
I started out (and continued using throughout the interview),
by including the word "man" at the end of some sentences.
You know, something like "How are you, man?"
Sheesh.
Another major reason I believe is also
the fact that I hadn't written anything in a very long time.
Even for my other blog,
I prefer to post pictures with short sentences. It's easier. Simpler.
Doesn't require much thought.
But here's the thing. Interviews, and senior-level jobs are complex and require
critical thinking skills (though you wouldn't know it by speaking with some people!)
I'll have to start writing on a more regular basis again.
And going by on all the crap that's been happening in Singapore
and around the world,
I doubt I'll be left wanting for things to talk about.
Well enough of that.
