Good evening people...

This is just to remind the participants of the mock Malay oral interview that there will be a feedback session tomorrow where we can discuss the interview in details and also give you feedback on your strengths and weaknesses. This is also the time when you can ask questions that we can help you with for the real interview. 

As I predict that there will only be some of you who are coming thus, you can just meet us at the Careers office as we are available from 1pm onwards. Don't worry, this time it will only be an informal session.

See you then :)

MOCK MALAY ORAL INTERVIEW II

Good evening peeps,

I'd like to confirm that there are now 8 students who signed up for the 'training session'. Details are as follows:

Day & date: Thursday, 19th April 2012

Time: 2.00 - 4.00pm

Venue: MUSIC ROOM

Please arrive in school before 2pm so I can arrange the order for your turn as it will be a first come first serve basis.

Also, to those who were involved in the previous interview session, would you like to attend the feedback session this Saturday where we can discuss and inform you of how to improve your weaknesses, etc. Email me if you agree to attend the session. As of today, only one has emailed me that you'll be attending the session on Saturday.

Thank you for your cooperation.

MOCK MALAY ORAL INTERVIEW

Happy Sunday people!

Yesterday, the dept organised a mock Malay oral interview targeted specifically for ex-SMSA students who are currently awaiting for scholarships from MOE and various agencies. I am happy to know that it was a success meaning that most participants felt that it was a useful training exercise and obtain knowledge to prepare for the real deal in the next few months.

I am more delighted to learn that more students would like to participate in the session. Therefore, I shall organise another mock interview session next week most probably on Wednesday or Saturday afternoons. Hence, to anyone who feels that you need the training exercise please sign up by emailing me directly so I can include your name directly. Each session will only be limited to 12 - 15 students depending on the time slot given.

Once again, a big thank you to all those students who have participated yesterday and we'll be contacting you to arrange a feedback session to discuss your strengths and weaknesses during the interview.
