Hi! Long time no post. hahaha Kindly understand me as I rant about what happened to me today.
So last Monday, I received an SMS from a certain international company, that I refuse to name, that I am short listed for the position I applied thru online. I was so happy that finally, after sending my CV everywhere, a company contacted me.
I was so excited but prepared that I even went out and bought a skirt for the interview as well as took my SL (Sinungaling Leave) just to attended the said interview.
Clearly, I applied for the accounting staff position since my previous work was about branch operations and I graduated with a degree in finance.
All went well, first part of the exam, 2nd part, typing exam, listening and such. I was so confused then. Why do I have to undergo such typing and listening exam if I wasn't even applying for customer/technical support. As said on their ad on jobstreet, more on basic accounting and ledger accounts. I did not voiced out my confusion.
But then, as soon as they interviewed me with the first question, "What do you know about the position you applied for, business processor?"
I was literally shocked! I insisted to the interviewer that I applied for the accounting staff position not a contact agent or business processor for that matter. She just said that they don't have available position for what I applied for. I was like, then why did you scheduled me and short listed me? (all on my head).
I woke up early for that interview, nearly got pick pocketed by some hoodlums, wasted money for transpo and miscellaneous gastos, tapos ganun lang? They shouldn't have posted that position on jobstreet tapos di naman pala available. Napeke ako.
Thank you for wasting my time, effort, money and SL miss.
Beware, lalo na sa hindi naman nag hahanap ng trabaho sa BPO, or call center rep. This is the first and last time.
