A Job Interview
Last week, the Head of HR of a very famous conglomerate company called me.
She said, her boss gave my name to a Country Manager of a subsidiary of WB group.
Wow...it is huge! THE BOSS of a very famous conglomerate company who owns a twin building in the middle of Sudirman as his "house" remember my name. YES, MY NAME!
I met him a year ago for a position in his company. Which eventually didn't push through because of the project itself.
I guess, this is how God gave me a gentle nudge...that He owns this universe. That even after a year passing by and we only talked for about 30 minutes top, this guy remember my name. And he believes that I am that good.
So I went for an interview last Monday. The place is located in the heart of Jakarta's business center. I felt overwhelm looking at the people going in and out of the building. The ambiance of money, wealth, luxury and business persona was so strong that makes me feel so small.
The interview was brief, he asked me to talked about my career path. And then he started to look annoyed and said,"why do you ladies don't find finance appealing?" I need someone to be my right hand, but you are not a finance girl, while this place's initial carrying an "F" in the middle stands for "finance". But I will send your CV to the regional office and let them decide, then they send their summary to the headquarter in Washington DC".
O well, then I thanked him and told him that it is an honor to be recommended by this guy and to be able to meet the Country Manager.
At least, at this moment in time, I was a formal candidate for a Deputy Country Manager for a subsidiary of WB in Indonesia.
Which is HUGE.
Que sera sera. Who knows what the future unfold?
