freaking screwed-up interview

well....thanks for everyone's concern. i shall try to write in pt form.

~ while filling up form for interview, another female applicant arrived. chatted a little. found that she is chee ling, rgs rj, 2 yrs my senior. exchanged hp num.

~ both of us given a test sheet each. given a 3D drawing with measurements embedded in a long paragraph, supposed to give 2D views. also have a pg of manufacturing ques behind.

~ before i could finish half the ques, i was called into interview rm.

~ they pointed out my mistakes. i said i had no time to read the last ques. they say never mind, no need. Sian.

~ interview wasnt smooth. felt that they weren't interested in what i have to say.

~ left the room. tried to warn my new friend. saw 2 male applicants.

~ after her interview, cheeling called me. she said hers was terrible. they told her things like "if u want to get an engineering job, u need to have engineering knowledge." on her way out of the interview rm, she heard:

interviewer to secretary: anyone else?
secretary: yes. 2 guys
interviewer: ok gd. i'm more interested in the guys.

... ...

i had a beer and slept the whole afternoon. (after lunch of course! i'd never miss lunch). hope my parents dont realise the disappearance of the can of beer. i felt much better after that long nap. i'm ok now!
