Medical Interview

hiya peeps... so yeah, remember how I was gonna tell you 'bout the whole interview experience? yeah okay.. let me roughly brief you through it. Gathered at the place at about 7.30am. It was at Presint 5 i think.. the big building!

Loads o' people were there. people started checking which panel they were in (i think there were bout 15 panels in all). Each panel consisted of 3 interviewers. i was in panel 6 along with my friend Eugene. we registered.. gave our photo-stated documents and waited for our turn. I was the 3rd group to go in, eugene the following one. we heard ppl talking bout their interviews.. some asking bout H1N1, globalisatoin, smoking.. all sorts of stuff. kinda got me a lil' anxious... hopefully they don't ask me too many factual questions. I don't think i can answer too many of 'em!

My turn.. We go in by fives.. i was number 4, the only chinese and boy.. 3 malay girls and an indian girl. Judges were a malay woman, man and chinese man. We were told to seat down on prepared chairs 'bout 2 meters from the panel. Malay woman told us to give an introductory.. in which she spoke in rojak (english/malay) so I guess the first girl played it safe by answering in malay. We followed suit.

The questions posed were simple and casual ones... the first two interviewers we conversed in malay..
Q#1
what have you done in the past that you think has helped you in improving your soft skills that could possibly help you in your future career and how?
Q#2
What do you see yourself doing in 10 years?
Q#3
What is your favourite colour? ( just to break the ice i think )
Q#4
Who is your idol?
Q#5
What have you done in the past that has made yourself and others proud of you apart from your SPM results?
*now in english*
Q#6
what is your biggest influence in life?
Q#7
would yo prefer to study oversea or locally?

So yeah, that's basically what they asked. its was a good experience.. so those who are going for any interviews as such anytime soon.. the only advice i can give you is just be yourself, stay calm and speak confidently.. you'll be okay :)
gtg peeps.. see y'all soon
