Yesterday & today, I attended UOB forum at Parkroyal Hotel (KL) which all the participants had to gone through stages in order to become UOB's employees...
Friday, 6pm was the registration for all the participants.Each participant will get a plastic with a good quality notepad & pen inside. Then, we went to sign our name at a big board. I'm quite sad since my hp camera quality is bad thus unable to take photos for memories .. sob sob >.<
6-9pm was a talk about UOB background and Management Associate Programme (MA). After the forum, we were served with a nice, 5-star supper. The foods damn nice..such as tiramishu, curry puff, marble cheese cake ....
After discussing with the participants and mentors, I realized that there are many stages to go through in order to join for the MA. Suprisingly, the salary is $3500 and 21 days annual leave. XD That's why there are 700++ people apply for UOB !!!
Below are the stages that need to go through ...
Stage 1 -- resume filter process (700++ applicants)
Stage 2 -- 2 Question through email
Stage 3 -- forum & 1st assesment (160 applicants)
Stage 4 -- 2nd assesment
Stage 5 -- personality test (19apr)
Stage 6 -- interview (26apr)
Stage 7 -- MA Programme (1aug)
Today, free breakfast, lunch & hi-tea were served. The assesment mark started to be counted since the breakfast..We were talking around, sharing experience between each other...Most of them are working adult or fresh graduate. They're big brother and sister for me. I'm nervous and I opined I'll be "fired" after 1st assesment since there were so many experienced and talent people.
During the 1st assesment, we were divided into groups and given 3 question for discussion within the group. Some of my groupmates "fight" to be outstanding till some of them were arguing points between each other. Lastly, the mentor asked us for a break to drink water for calming down. AND...we had been break 3 times = ="
After lunch, the result was announced. 100 people had been out from the ballroom..feel like apprentice =p Luckily, I'm in. I was really excited because it was unexpected since the competitors damn "strong" and talented.
For 2nd assesment, we need to design 2 version of egg catcher (1st version & improvised version) that able to catch 2 eggs dropped from 5 feet & 6 feet and avoid it from broke. We had to do budgeting and use the raw materials to design the egg catcher within 20 minutes...
