Amkor Technology Examination

Today is January 19, 2012. New year. New life. New possibilities. This is my very first post this year of the dragon.

Last Tuesday, I took an OJT entrance examination from Amkor Technology P1 located at Sucat Highway, Muntinlupa. It's a long exam with a lot of time pressure but I am very confident that I'll be able to ace it with my skills. And I actually did. All thanks to God who I know guided me all the way through. After the examination, I had my initial interview with a Human Resource staff of the company. She asked me a couple of questions like, what's your strengths and weaknesses, describe yourself, what is your attitude towards your colleagues, define honesty, the usual ones I will say that you could possibly find from internet websites. After that, the other staff who's taking her OJT from that company as well, ushered me to a different building wherein possible supervisors for interns like me are located. Before entering the place, the guard gave us a shoe plastic to protect our feet from possible chemicals, I guess that could most likely damage or irritate our skin. It's quite fun actually.

I had my technical interview with my supervisor, I am sure, I saw Jon Sendido from his cubicle but in his signature, it's JSupe. Reason why, I am not sure what's exactly his name. The supposed to be technical interview turned out to be a chit chat about my school, my residence, the languages of Koreans, Japanese and other countries that Amkor deals with and my menstrual cycle. At first, I couldn't really understand why he needed to know anything about it but then I was enlightened when he finally explained it to me. Other girl interns like me would refuse to work on their menstruation days because they suffer from dysmenorrhea. I told him that I do not suffer from it this past few months but I had it before. It's not that hurtful these days. And tadaaaa! The staff from Human Resource came back for me and gave me the requirements to be submitted on Friday. I can start work on Tuesday. Yay! :)

    1. Hi! So, I think my reply's super late, hehe. Pero, I'll still answer for the sake of other readers. Well, maganda naman sya, may free meal stub, 40 pesos a day and may shuttle so, parang meron na ring fare allowance. I applied walk in sa may alabang, P1 branch nila.. We're working 5 days a week from 8am to 4pm yata or 5pm. Di ko na matandaan. Medyo nakakapagod lang pero anong work ba ang hindi nakkapagod. So, yun, overall, it was a challneging and exciting experience. :)
