Oh My Cubical !

Certainly semua org yang working in office has our own cubical, be it on island basis or stand alone. Often without knowing we do/say/see things that we are not suppose to while working, particularly within our cubical.
Hence, this time saya sekadar nak share etiquette at our office cubical. Honestly it wasn’t from me. I happened to found it while i was doing my reading on other topic (for my work). Cuma I’ve made few changes and adjustment in accordance to our local environment as well as my company procedure and policy.
Feel free to read and exercise which ever practical to your situation......  

1.       Seek permission to enter another person's cubicle unless you are invited.
2.       Don’t interrupt someone who is on the phone by using sign language or any other means of communication.
3.       Think twice before interrupting someone who appears deep in thought.
4.       Remember that speakerphones and cubicles don't mix.
5.       Don't discuss a confidential matter in a cubicle setting.
6.       Don't establish eye contact with someone when you would prefer not to be interrupted.
7.       Bear in mind that your cubicle is a direct reflection of you. Keep it neat and orderly.
8.       Stand up and walk towards the entrance of your cubicle when you would like an impromptu meeting short.
9.       Always hold yourself to a higher standard, no matter your job or your title.
10.    Don't borrow items from other mates in the office without letting them know.
11.    Respect the privacy of those around you. Don't read other workmates memos, notes or faxes.
12.    Practice good hygiene but please not in public. Hair brushing, eyebrow plucking, flossing etc. should be done in the rest room during your lunch hour.
13.    Avoid sharing office gossip. It hurts and could not even be true.
14.    Don't play music at your desk during business hours. If you have to, use a headset.
15.    You can place pictures of your family, friends and relatives on your desk, but limit it to 4-5 pictures.
 

 
                                                          Nice ha??

Resume that sells! (without prejudice)


Lelong lelong lelong!! Hohoho dah lama tak jadi poyo.

Lately byk menerima Resume daripada Para Pencari Majikan. As recruiter utk localize unit, at least satu hari aku terima 2 resume yg tidak diminta. In the time yg kita buat advertisement or opening, lagi la banyak resume yang masuk.

So dengan sedikit pengalaman yg ada, kalini aku nk share tips2 utk menghasilkan Resume yg akan dibaca oleh recruiter mcm aku ni, atleast pun dibaca oleh aku.

Sebab kalo kami tak baca, tak payah ceritala pasal nk consider utk shortlisted and might not. Almaklumlah, recruiter ni pun manusia juga, bila dah resume menimbun depan mata, keje laen lagi nk buat maka kami akan bersikap selective utk membaca resume yg diterima.

Back to the tips..

Tips No 1 – Summarize!

Resume as it names, should tells ur great life history in short and sweet summary form. Meaning to say, summarize ur self in the resume. Bukannya tulis hikayat Merong Mahawangsa dik, berjela-jela. Serious aku give up bila bukak2 tgk 6 pages…7 pages etc. Weh igt aku xde keje laen nk buat? Pastu jgn mimpi aku nk print sebab membazir kertas je kot. Makanya utk fresh graduate, 2 pages is enough.

Tips No 2 – Back to basic!

Dalam hal ni aku maybe a bit conventional. Formats resume biar simple and clean. Too many boxes, column, row etc is cluttering. Hierarchy tolong jaga, susun info ikut keutamaan. Paling menarik mata kami is ur pointer and field of study, biasanya aku tgk itu dulu. Tp kalo kena selak byk kali baru jumpa..hmmm abaikan.

Tips No 3 – Picture speaks louder!

Memandangkan tak kenal maka tak cinta maka gambar yg dipilih tu tolongla letak gambar terbaek yg korang ada. Gambar yg jelas, berimej sopan, kemas dan nampak macam pandai serta boleh diharap. Budak2 sekarang ni memang pakar bergaya, mcm2 pose aku dpt dlm resume. Tapi dik, persepsi mcm mana yg anda nk kami interpret, maka gambar begitulah yg perlu dikepilkan. Depends la syarikat mcm mana juga.

Cakap pasal gambar, now trending kot siap tunjuk gambar masa di kampus, training etc. Good to have that kalau ianya tidak memanjangkan resume anda. Otherwise keep it during the interview session later on je.

Tips No 4 – Mind ur Language!

Heee bukan nk kata bersopan santun tu. Tp ia lebih kepada jaga ejaan, grammar, komposisi ayat etc. aku tahu ini bukan karangan bahasa tapi ia boleh jadi factor utk membezakan 10 org calon yg punyai kelayakan serupa. Ada recruiter yg nampak je silly2 linguistics’ mistake ni, terus delete resume tu. Macam aku oke lagi sebab aku belom muak kot baca resume.

Itu ajela buat masa ni, after all this is just my personal observation and opinion. Selamat menulis resume and maju jaya dlm usaha anda untuk mencari majikan!

Thanks!

InDah AlaM

Honestly aku rasa pelik, napela aku sibuk nk ada blog? walhal nk kata famos amos pun follower ada 5 je. Nk kata rajen menulis, post entry pon setahun beberapa kali je...tapi maseh la ngada2 nk tulis blog.
Actualy petang ni tetiba rajen nk blogging sebab dah xde mende nak buat. so ambek peluang ni utk share pengalaman masa bercuti di Cameron Highland time cuti sekolah aritu.

Senang crite, BEST! aku sronok sebab wifey seronok (cewah). Utk rekod, famili aku bukan jenis yg gemar melancong so kami sgt jarang atau hampir tidak pernah melancong. Makanya bila dah kawen ni adalah teman utk sama2 pergi bercuti...no more cuti2 sesama saing bujang :)

Untuk jarak yg sederhana jauhnya, x perlu naek flite, bajet pon kira sederhana sebab maseh dlm negara...Cameron adalah lokasi yg menarik. Tapi org mcm aku x buleh stay sana lama2....cepat bosan. 1 hari je aku abes pusing cameron tu, paling suka ofcoz ladang teh sebab aku xde ladang teh. Kebun strawberry pon aku xde gak tp aku bukan penggemar so ada aku kisah? guane pun cantik2 buah strawberi dinu...merah berkilat and manis.

Shopping pun heaven utk pokok2...murah giler and byk pilihan yg tidak buleh diendahkan sama sekali. Aku n wifey maen amek je pokok itu ini walau x kenal and x tau pun camne nk jaga pokok2 tu..beli je la, taknak nanti dah balek asyik teringat-igt.

Food pon awesome. Kitorang cuba beberapa jenis pemanis mulut yg cuma ada kat sana je. Sgt yummy sebab bahan2 fresh kot....segar dari ladang! Laen2 xde la apa sgt, in general ianya menarik sebab bentuk muka bumi yg totally beza dgn kampong aku mahupun Kerteh ni. Maka landskap and flora nye pon tersendiri lah. Indah alam ciptaan Tuhan.Syukur dpt nimatinya.
