Talk


I remembered the final semester at my alma mater
I went for multiple interview setup by the IT school (Got one offer which I passed)
Running around the campus attending multiple talks and workshops on career and what not
Enjoyed the whole running around but lot of pressure to land a job before leaving school
That was 11 years ago
And this week, I am part of a 3 man panel talking to 200+ students of a local higher learning institution
We yapped about resumes, interviews, self branding and other significant career development topics in a two hours session
Then it was lunch - they served a mean dalca that afternoon!
I was hoping for more crowd interaction but overall, it was a good session
The best would still be the talk at UUM last year- nostalgic!
p/s: Nobody take notes anymore. They just listen and expect to remember everything. Give it 48 hours and they won't even remember my name

Bull, when kolej jemput, we all turun jika berkesempatan. But, your school jauh sangat la. Cari budak2 kita yg lagi hebat kat KL tu for that.
