I came across this job ad in the straits times a couple of weeks
back... It said various position available(note tat)... I called up
and they fixed an interview for me at Apex Tower... I went for the
interview and noticed tat in was held in a small office runned by
youths in their twenties who called themselves managers and
directors... and the directors highest qualification was 'A'
levels... that made me the highest qualified if i have joined the
company... They brought me to a interview room to see the young
director called some Richard... He interviewed me, told me about
the company and showed me his previous paycheck of $11 000... How
unprofessional.... I had my doubts oredi... i was then escorted by
a lady to see the Asst director... guess wat, they brought me to a
coffee shop... fuckin tweet... and the best part the asst director
was toking thrash with me, when i asked him about the job, he din
wana tell me anything and told me the details would be told to me
in the second interview...
One of the staff called me to confirm the second interview... he
identified himself as calling from Apex tower... wat rubbish... why
not the company name? He fixed the interview...
I went for the 2nd interview mainly to gain some experience and
confidence... This time the truth was out... There is oni one
position and is tele marketing, you will have to work your way up
from there... there is no basic pay and commission could go lower
then 500 a month... i was told to come for the 3rd interview...
haha... this was getting fun... They wasted my time, so i wanted to
waste back theirs... i told them ill be coming...
i went to the 3rd interview, with no intension of joining the
company but to punk them 
... The asst-director brought me to a bookshop to
buy a notepad to write some notes (i don understand how they can
actually do this) after lunch at the coffee shop... i hate coffee
shops and fancy him being a asst-director... We went back to the
office and he passed me some notes and told me to copy down in my
notebook(WTF, theyve not heard of photocopiers?)... And at the same
room which i was sharing with the other fresh interviewees i was
copying the notes, they were processing my so called appointment...
Recruitment calls were made in all the time and i was over hearing
it this time, hehe... This is how it goes... They ask you for you
name... Then your age... If youre 30 years and above they say they
re looking for 30 year old and below unless you re willing to do
sales and marketing wch of course they ll say 'no'... And thats
exactly what this recruitment is all about... "Sales And
Marketing"...
And when someone below the age of 30 ask what are the jobs
available, they would offer different positions irrelevent like
even 'customer service'... And that theyre dealing with
life-science... note that they are actually dealing with
bio-magnetism which is not recognised as a life-science resourse in
Singapore...
Tat was my last straw... i left the office for home... Never to
come back...
