So i have a job interview today at convergys. I was pretty confident while waiting for my initial interview knowing well that I have passed and will be starting training at info-nxx (unless I get a better offer). I could tell that it'll go hay-wire when I was asked to go into the interview room with two other applicants---and it was so cold. Awkward silence fell within the room while we sat there waiting. I was sitted in the middle of the two other applicants, this working-student from uplb, and a 38 year old lady who is currently working in acity treasury. So thebn came my turn, how can I compete with the two who both have job experience and the first thing I blurted out was  after my educational background was,"I'm an nba fanatic". it was like bush fire that i could not stop. all the non-sense things came out as if it was controlling me...

"i like writing poetry, i joined the...uhm...uhm...poetry org...but i never did get published..."( you didn't have to say you suck at it!!!))

" I'm a member of essence...which is uhm...the school org for education students" (what the fuck?)

" i'm also a member of mathematics circle" ( no i'm not)

    then she asked me since I decided to keep quiet, " if you were to be a pope or a president of a country, what would you choose?"

"pardon"

she repeated the question.

I answered, "the philippines!" (tang ina!!! i thought she asked me if i were to be a leader of a powerful organization, who would i be?)

I chose to be a president, saying that the pope only prays for 16-hour straight, which i tried to justify as bad, then when she argued back, I then started a narative of why i'm mot a practicing catholic..(talk about pathetic! and arguing with the interviewer is a pretty stupid thing to do!!!)

the interviewer then asked what are my qualities that will make a  good agent. I answered, " i can have an INTIMATE conversation with a client rather than have a business manner." I was actually trying to say that  i can communicate in a more heck...i don't wanna start it, i might just babble useless words again. and you can't defend yourself in any way possible if you said you had can have an INTIMATE conversation with a client through the phone.

everything that happens then is a blur to me and im pretty sure that it was nasty.
in the end of the interview, i absolutely positive that i flunked...

the worse part is, i thought i was leagues behind my co-applicant, it turned out that they too failed. what a stabbed on my ego...
i then condone myself with a lunch at chowking and the thought that  i'll be starting my training at info-nxx. I also recieved a call from etelecare and that interview is on monday...i'll keep you posted on the outcome next time...yu peace!
