Weird interview

Second n final interview at UOB this morning. Sux coz i was 5 mins late. Met the super weird director of the global biz n pdt development division. N he asked super weird questions. Here r some excerpts taken from our conversation:

Q1) Which pri sch did u go to? sec sch? jc?
In my mind: DUH! Isnt it all in the file u r holding? All my certs r there n he is LOOKing at it while asking me!

Q2) Why did u choose to go to CHIJ instead of St. Nicks'? NJC instead of NYJC? SMU instead of NTU? NUS instead of NTU?
In my mind: *faintz* stoopid questions dun deserve any answers at all.

Q3) Why did u go to the Science stream when u r stronger in ur humanities?
In my mind: Why do u care? Itz my life. NOYB!

Q4) Do u like to go club/pub? Which club/pub do u frequent/like? Do u like techno music? I thot youngsters like techno n retro music? Not bad wat.
In my mind: *faintz again* wat has it gotto do w the job? N well...i LIED.
My ans: Yes i do club but not often (yeah rite, im clubbing princess!). I go to Thumper (the classiest club i can think of out of all tt i frequent, coz of itz yuppy n more mature crowd). No i do not like techno (liar!), i prefer chillout music n rnb (some truth). Im not 18 so i dun consider myself a so-called "youngster" (wah i damn act mature man). n usually itz the ah lians n ah bengs who like techno (oh man who am i kidding? Im an ah lian deep inside n i like techno n house!)

Q5) Why shud we hire fresh grads when we train them so much but they end up getting poach or running away to other companies? We shud juz poach from other companies, whereby they r all trained n experienced.
In my mind: Den dun hire me lor...go thru so many interviews n selection for wat? Waste everybody's time ah? Go hire old ppl like urself lah.

Q6) R u willing to be stationed overseas long term? Say 10 to 20 years?...Nowadays so many young ppl wanna work overseas. Im quite surprised u r not as willing.
In my mind: SIAO ah! Den my Baby Nic Nic how? Im onli willing to travel or work there for at most 1 yr can? 10 yrs den i come back no need to get married liao lah? My Nic Nic run off alry lor! N i'll look so old n ugly no one want me alry leh!

Q7) Wat is ur view on marriages? U believe in them? So wat r ur marriage plans, like when do u plan to get married?
In my mind: Im getting married on 14th May 2007. U r not invited.
My Ans: Yes i do believe in marriages n there will come to a point in time when ppl wud want to settle down n get married. No i do not have any marriage plans (I lied bcoz i feel tt he is testing me whether i will give up my career to set up a family. Den they might think their efforts to groom me will be wasted) bcoz when it comes it comes. U cant set an age to it coz if it doesnt go according to ur plan to get married at a certain age, it only leds to disappointment n unneccessary stress. Also, ur career may be a itz peak at that time, and unpredictable situations can undermine ur plans. So i take things as it comes.

Q8) Which is more impt to u? Career or setting up a family? (I knew it was coming!)
Ans: Career. Im a career-minded woman. N w/o financial ability, u can forget about getting married, having kids, owning a car n a house. I wud rather strike a balance than to give up my career to be a housewife. (n ttz exactly wat i intended)

Q9) R u a Hokkien?
My Ans: No. Im a Hainanese.
Q10) Oh yah yah! (Turns to HR manager) She got a Hainanese face hor! Hainanese ppl r known to be hardworking leh. Good good.
In my mind: ..... ~nothing to say~. Wat can i say? I got Hainanese face? Den why did u ask me if i was Hokkien in the first place? Full of SHIT!

N these r juz some of the weird questions he asked me. In between there r a lot of weird comments too. Oh well, hope i handled it well...except that sometimes, i realli dunno wat to say bcoz he always rebutt me on things tt i say like he has the right answers to everything. Even the HR manager who sat beside him expressed amused/weird looks when he asked those weird questions. She even had to "ying chou" (entertain) him by nodding her head at his weird comments coz he looks at her occassionally for some nods of agreement. haha!

Anyway apparently he told me that out of the hundreds of applicants, i was one of the final 3 selected for the 2 positions they had. Wow, i realli felt quite lucky actually. Well, gotto wait till the end of the week for the outcome. But somehow, bcoz of the weird interview,i seriously dun have much confidence in it. Oh well...
