"stepping out on my own"

career in life

Went for 3 interviews today... one for Raffles, one for Kokanee Acquisitions(sales and marketing position) and one more was for a recruitment agency, which i actually applied to without knowing it was an agency, thinking it was a company... geez...

Anyways, the Raffles one was ok, except i would be doing accounts stuff there, which is something way out of my course of study... plus, i never even took accounts in sec sch... i never took accounting in my entire life! and to help out in accounting for such a huge co., i bet it's no easy feat... but the people there were nice and i really wanted to join thinking that it would be a great stepping stone to the hospitality biz which i so want to be in... however, i am still uncertain about this one...

Then there's the sales and marketing position... the company's in Chinatown - the home of cheap and good food... plus the office is really nice too... the have a lounge area where they show FRIENDS... haha... so cool, no? Anyways, it was a group interview kinda setting and i actually met a fellow NP grad there... a biz student... we just talked after the interview, which was really short and quite pointless, might i add... i was called back for a second interview scheduled for tmr, but i actually am not really looking forward to that cos i just found out that the company does direct marketing, like selling to pple face to face and stuff... not the project based type that i was looking for... but i guess i'll drop by for the interview anyways tmr...

And the third, the recruitment agency... well, they'll hook me up with a company and i have to pay them for their services... they've already gotten me an interview tmr... something to look forward to...

All this interviewing is tiring... and hard on my feet too... they're acheing... i'm in need of good shoes and a great foot massage... ahhhh.... perhaps the treatment of sleep might help for now... time for bed, cos i got to wake at 7am tmr... argh...
