The World Is So Small ? 世界真得有那么小 ?

Today, I just went for the interview session in Setapak. It is Gamma Solution Sdn Bhd and I am applying for Technical Engineer position. The company is running the cctv business and the job for technical engineer is to guide the and present the solution for the sales team.
今天,我到了文良港的一间公司应征。这是一家名叫Gamma Solution的私人公司。而我是应征工程师的职位。这家公司是一间专门在做闭路电视的公司。工程师的工作着是提供指导给行销部门的人。

But why I put the title as "The World is So Small" ? What I have done ? I ran into someone ? haha..
可是,为什么我会放“世界真得有那么小”的标题呢?到底是什么原因?难道我遇见了某某人?

Ok, I am going to tell the story again. I am not a good storyteller. Hopefully you all can understand.
好的,我又要讲故事了。我不是很会讲故事,所以希望你们会了解故事的内容。

It is very common that you have to fill up your personal details when applying a job. Most of the company will also ask for the reference. That means you have to put someone as a reference in order to let the company know about your personal details. Therefore, I just fill up the form and my reference is a lecturer from Utar.
一般上,当你再申请工作时都会填写个人资料在一张表格上。很多公司都会要求你放几位参考人以便让公司能够从参考人的身上了解更多你的个人资料。

Then, the manager from the company interviewed with me. First, he asked me to introduce myself. After that, asked some basic questions. I just answered steadily and honestly. Suddenly, he asked me for the reason that I put my lecturer as my reference. At that moment, I felt a bit strange. Why asking these kinds of questions ? Anyway, I have to answer him. So, I said he was my lecturer and he is course tutor in Utar also.
之后,那间公司的经理应征我。起初,他叫我介绍自己。然后就问一些简单的问题。所有的问题我都老实回答。突然,他就问我关于我的参考人。他问我为什么会放他呢?当时,我觉得有点奇怪为什么会问这样的问题呢。无论如何,我还是回答了他。我的答案是,因为他曾经是我的教授而且他也是拉曼大学里的科系领导人。

After that, he told me some of the company backgrounds and asked other questions. Then, he talked about my reference again. This time, I felt he is more interested to know my lecturer's detail more than me. I just answered his question again.
过后,他稍微更我讲解了一些公司的背景也再问了我一些问题。然后,他又在提起我的参考人。这次,我发现他好像对我的参考人的资料很有兴趣。我也回答了他所问的问题。

After this, you know what did he says ? "Actually he was my ex-coursemate". Omg! What a coincidence. I just simply go for a company and the manager knows my reference. Naturally, I was laughing on the spot because I like to laugh. Luckilly I could control myself and did not spoil my image. Because it is very very "ngam". I think to meet these kind of things, the chances are less than strike by lightning. So, he asked me about him and I just told the manager what I know about my reference.
之后,你们知道他说什么吗?“其实这个人是我以前的同学”。 我的天啊!真的这么巧阿。我随便到了一家公司应征也会碰到我教授的同学?很自然的,我也马上笑了起来。因为我是个笑口常开的人。幸好我还能控制自己也没有损坏形象。因为我觉得真得很巧。我觉得要碰见这种事的机会比给雷打中还难。然后他也问了一些关于他的问题。

The interview is about half an hour. But, I really enjoy with it because it is really funny and I never expect this also. Tomorrow, I am going for another interview which is in Nilai. Hopefully I will have fun for the interview also.
这次的应征大约是半小时。我非常的享受整个过程因为真的太巧了。况且我也没想到会发生这种事。明天,我将会到Nilai的一家公司应征。希望也会是个愉快的应征。
