Career Fair

Panasonic

It was a first level interview with one interviewer against 3 interviewees. Half way through the interview.

Interviewer:      I see that you are from XX, why would you like to work at Johore?

Candidate Y:    I’m planning to work at Singapore, so I’ll start off at JB.

Interviewer:      What has working at Singapore has got to do with working at JB?

........ pause for 1 minute (very agonizing)............

Candidate Y:    Actually, its for my girl friend.

Peeeeeeeettttttttt~~~~ (sound of game show buzzer, wrong answer)

……….. everyone got the shock of the day ……….

Interviewer:      That explains all. hahahhaa.

Infineon

Half way through.

Interviewer:      Ok, this would be a personal question, do you have a girl friend?

Candidate L:     No.

Interviewer:      How about before this?

Candidate L:     Nope.

Interviewer:      Why? You don’t like girls?

Dear L only told me this much of the story since everyone is laughing so hard.

HP (SCENE 1)

Towards the end of the interview.

Candidate C:    I have a friend working in HP JB.

Interviewer:      Oh really? Which department is he in?

Candidate C:    I think he’s in the HR department.

Interviewer trying to hide his grin but failed

Interviewer:    We don’t have HR department at HP JB.

Lesson 1 – Don’t answer when you are not sure.

Interviewer:      So do you have any questions?

Candidate C:    Actually what does HP do? Something about PC right?

Interviewer:      HP JB only produces printers.

Lesson 2 – Know more about your potential employer.

HP (SCENE 2)

Interviewer:      Can you draw a circuit which can convert 240V AC to 5V DC.

Candidate N:    Ok.

After finishing the circuit.

Interviewer:      Where is the rectifier? (there is no rectifier)

Candidate N simply drew an arrow pointing to a few components and labeled it as rectifier, even though he knew there was no rectifier. So funny, how could you bluff the interviewer since he has prepared his questions?

Add-ins

During Panasonic interview:

Interviewer: What are the products that we manufacture? Name me a few.

Candidate P: Some kind of electric devices. Exactly what are they, I do not know.

Interviewer: What you will do before you marry someone?

Candidate P: Do research first.

(The interviewer started to nag)

Interviewer: Ya, that's the point! Then how come you never do research before u come for walk-in-interview? What point we set the booth upstair? Many interviewers disappointed to the candidates due to they do not take initiative to know the company's background, just hoping to get a job. bla bla bla...

Candidate P: If I like you, at the very first I will let u know that there is such person exists. As the time goes, I will understand more on you. so there's nothing wrong to walk-in without doing research. 

(The interviewer remain silent, but no more despise look)

Candidate P: I am not UTM student. Actually I m from KUiTTHO. I travel all along the way from Batu Pahat to this career fair, just because I know that PANASONIC IS HAVING A WALK-IN INTERVIEW IN UTM.

With much satisfaction,

Interviewer: Good, u have show ur interests in our company.

Haha, these are our great experiences during the UTM career fair. Having lots of fun there... Cheerios~~
