SPA/JOB interview tips

In this post I will be sharing some of job interview tips that I gain from my last experience during a job interview under SPA :

GENERAL INTERVIEW TIPS :

before the interview :

  1. be PREPARED ( search and search as much information about your company that you will work with : lucky we have internet nowadays ^_^)
  2. MAKE SURE prepare all the documents that are needed during the interview earlier ( identity card, birth certificate,academic transcript and other related certificates, etc etc - )
  3. if you are Muslims, recite a lot of 'selawat' and surah al-Insyirah A LOT.
During the interview :
  1. wear your best FORMAL OUTFIT (make sure it is tidy/smart and NOT SEXY)
  2. wear proper shoes and  girls must wear shoes with HEELS ( 1 to 2 inch ) but NOT A HIGH HEELS and the color code should be in BLACK.
  3. be there EARLY . (very important!!)
  4. Sit up straight and look confident!
  5. have confidence during the Q&A questions
  6. always smile
  7. ask questions if have any doubt in your mind.
  8. say thank you.
so now I will give more 'specific' tips for those who will be interviewed under SPA

SPA INTERVIEW TIPS :

  • Gain information about current government contributions to Malaysian as much as you can. WHY??
  1.  Usually there will be two interviewers in the room. One of them is from SPA department and this person will ask you A LOT about current Gov policies and current local news.
  2. The interviewer may also ask you about the Government contribution/project/policies that are RELATED the department that you will work with.
  3. I didn't know where the source is but some rumors said 70% of marks of the total interview are based on the SPA interviewers and the other 30% is from the related department interviewer.
  • If they ask you in ENGLISH, answer in ENGLISH if you CAN'T, ASK their permission to talk in PROPER MALAY.
  • NEVER CROSSED LEG during an interview sessions.
SO good LUCK guyss !!
