I received a call in the afternoon today. It was regarding my application for the Ops Freight Officer job at Changi Cargo Complex. I kinda messed up the phonecall but the person did schedule me for an interview tomorrow. I am not sure if it was a 'test' but he asked me, "Why did you choose to apply for this job?" and I fumbled with a lame answer. Later, he then explained that he was asking this because it was a logistics position whereas my degree was for computing Logistics? I thought they listed this under the Adminsitration jobs section.
Anyway, I kinda look forward to the job because it is one of the more unique ones I have come across as opposed to a typical desk job. Training is provided, the workplace is close to home and I get to stay up late every day because it is done in shifts and have uneven working hours. Oh, and the job name sounds authoritative (sort of).
This is the first proper job interview that I have scored myself (and not through recommendation or relations). I am quite pleased that Giant Hamster's critique on my resume was actually effective; I sent out 4 applications so far and had already gotten my first reply. I then went out to get my hair cut (even though I feel that I don't really need one) and photocopied my educational certificates. I hope things go well tomorrow.
