Its been about few days since I rejected dells job application,so far no news about other job openings for me, I wonder if i had done the right thing.Heres hoping for the best.

So guess what, i got the job and just needed to fax my letter of completion and resume to them to get the approvement form or aggreement to join them. I finally told them i was not going to do so as i wasnt intersted in the job and thus ended my first job appliacation. I shall remember it for life .

So get a call from dell malaysia telling me to get a call at 7.30 to 8.00 pm call from australia, a lady Ms.Karen law. It was later canceled to 7.00 -7.30am next morning. I waited for the call an finally got a called from her at about 7.30 am. It was like the interview session again but shorter version this time. I suspect they want to test my english again. it took barely 3 minutes . I went to continue my sleep afterwards.

I got a call asking me to call a number by 10.30 am from the lady and a code to join the conference. Great!. So i called them about 10.30 and waited.It was funny, no one knew including my self what to expect during the conference. I was the first to call and waited for dells spokeperson to come on, while i was waiting a girl called came next, he heard me sneezing and wondered i was the dell guy, i explained to her i wasnt, it happened again from another guy who called as well asking whether i was dell again,please stop asking me i thought it was getting to be embarrasing for me,Finally 4 guys were on line and then dell came in, he's name was Mr. Shankar.He congaratulated first for coming till this far, and started explaining what happens next, in seems their australian counter part would call us next to interview us, this was the deciding point as it tells us whether or not we get the job.Rest was just advising us how to answer, some questions session and finally ended within 15 minutes.

Yup, i got the call and i made it, i passed the interview, but it was not the end of it.They would call me to attend a teleconference throught the phone. This is new (i thought) and happily even though i wasnt interested in the job.

So what i learn from the cute girl and another guy at the table before i left was that i was to wait for a call from them within the week to get the results of the interview.

WEll just finished i thanked him and was showed my self again to the cute girl at the table, she gave me another test or "interview questions" fro 20 minutes. It was something like an English test. I finished it fast and was on my way home

Then he went on asking about what if in certain scenarios , say what if your friends speakers was not working what would you do, steps included,what if the os would not load and others, it was like testing my pc knowlege. It was ok.O h yeah he asked where would i get IT news and information and some hardware descriptions, for me was intels latest chips.Well it finished finally.Here he asked me to ask questions to him regarding the job advertise. i ask about the pay as i wasnt sure how much do fresh gradute earn, he said it was up to the HR and then i asked what could i learn and look forward this job and progress, he says take his case for instance he has been working fo dell for 5 years now, hes in the level 1 or somethign, he nows coaches new be like me who just starts working in dell. Hmm interesting i thought.Once that was over i still had to stay for a while.

Yup, it was my turn finally to attend the interview,finally after waiting each interviewer calling each one of us. He's name was Robert or something, i was nervous, it was my first interview since i completed my degree. It started out ggreat he introduced himself to me and i did the same for myself.So guess waht he asked first -work experience, i explained i had none but could relate it back to my group projects from school. It was actually acceptable, he wanted to know how was my experience in my group projects. Great i thought! There was a lot of things i could tell him about them. So his first question was that to describe it, what would happen it this groupmember would have done that, this, and other group work issues. I was happy to explain it and showed my flair in making groupwork work!

It was a long wait, but half way i made aquintance with a nice girl, she spotted my completion of degree letter ealier and found it was farmilliar. Guess what, she graduted from the same school i am from, only she graduated last year. We had some talk till the it was my turn to for the interview.

There was the job presentation like what you would be doing for this particular job, how you could progress from it where you can move from it. It sounded great, but i was not very much interested cause what you essentially do is just answer calls and help trouble shooting customers problem.Once that was over, i was asked to wait in the earlier hall for the next interview.Here I thought "It wasnt done?". So i moved back to the next hall and waited another 1 1/2 hour for the actual interview with a real person.

So i had to sit a type of test(questionaire they called it). In the paper was 30 questions, it started out by testing the english, IQ , and some computer basics mainly software terms and hardwares name s and their users.Piece of cake i thought but it was reall nerve wrecking to do it witht he clock ticking in front of you. Yup they made a kind of 20 minute stop watch on the projection slide. With each tick it was like competing the olympics but hei i finished it. I even ask a sharper pencil before the test started. So what happen next,one guy collected the paper for marking and the other started the Dells presentation. When he asked us does anyone has any dell workstaions or product, none of us carried up our hands. Sure proves dells popularity.He went on explaining dells jobs and the organisation within dell for Malaysia.Then the other guy then came up and guess what all of us passed the test.Hmm not bad i thought specially for a guy who just finished his final year degree barely 24 hours ago.

Well as far as i mention the work experience thing to almost everyone conducting the interview, it wasnt muct of a problem or made much attention. Glad to to know that. So what happen was that right after i submitted the form, i was made to wait in a hall,with other participants not more than 20 guys, foreigner ,older girls and guys. They gave me a cheap sticker to stick on my shirt. I was made to wait like 1/2 an hour then was called with about 10 guys to another presentation hall. It had tables chairs and a whole projection slides and sets. It look like some exam hall except without the projection machine and screen. Best part it was a exam hall, we were given 20minutes to finish up 30 questions, Then i thought so this is what a walk inter view is like.

Yup i just got back from it,the interview took less that 2 hours,more time waiting that actual interview.SO here's what happen, i arrived about 11.something am, went to the cute lady at the reception table for dell,she gave a form to fill(particulars and academic achivements, work experience etc.) I could fill it up(i didnt even bring a proper resume)but could not provide any work experience. I wonder what would happen?Would they ditch me any time i mention i have no working experience?

That was my dillema, on the very same morning of the walkin interview , ive checked Dells web sote and to my horror learnt that it was like kinda a call center job, except you help DEll's customer or client on how to use Dell pc, servers and etc.I had doubts attending the interview as i hate doin something that not need my degree(much), i even thought of blowing it off but hei lets try it for the kick of it, it may better prepare me in future interviews

Technical support specialist, sounds great huh? WEll this was what i read last 2 weeks ago from the ad, It was a job walk in interview done by dell in the Renaissance Hotel, Kuala Lumpur. I thought of giving it a shot just barely a day after my final degree exam.I didnt meet requirement though like at least 1 year working experience but may be i will relate to my group projects in school.Wish me luck
