Hi Kate,
Sorry I haven’t written for such a long time but I’ve suffered from a very bad cold.
Two weeks ago I applied for a job in a big international company. To my surprise, they asked me to come to an interview just a few days later. Actually, the interview consisted of two parts; first we talked to HR consultant and then we were asked to solve some problems in groups. They told us that the result of the interview depended not only on our qualifications and experience but also on our ability to work in a group of people who differ from one another.
After a few days I got a letter from the company. They agreed to employ me. I stared at the paper and couldn’t believe in what I’ve just read.
I wonder what you are doing these days.
Get in touch.
