Salam Alaykum
Hello peeps out there. Hope you fine and really enjoy your
life with His blesses. It’s been a while since I last updated my blog. Dah
berhabuk dah blog ni. Fuhhh…
Because of so many people ask me to share my interview experienced,
so I’ve decided to share it in this blog. And I hope it will help for those who
will go to the interview especially for interior design course because before I
went to the interview I made research from many blogs and it helped me a lot.
25th May 2013
Woke up early in the morning, wore the best cloth (extra
mark for those who are good appearance). At 9.30 a.m. my mother and I started
our journey to UiTM Machang. It took about 20 minutes to arrive there.
When we arrived there, so many parents were waiting for
their children patiently. Ada makcik-makcik sampai tertidur atas kerusi tu. Hehe..
After registered my name and course, I was patiently waited for my turned and
made final preparation. Recheck all those documents that were required.
Then, one of the guys who sat at the registration counter
called my name and a few candidates and asked us to go to a class for drawing
test.
In that class, there were a few blocks in a table such as
cuboid, pyramid, sphere and cylinder. We were required to draw all those
blocks. There were many tables that were arranged like table in meeting room. Meaning
that the blocks were located at the centre of the class and we were free to sit
at any tables. So I preferred to sit at a table that I can saw the blocks
clearly. Actually I didn’t have any skills in drawing. But I tried my best for
that test.
After finished the test that took about 1 hour, then we were
required to go to another class for the interview. While we were waiting for
our turned, I asked the one who sat beside me. Her drawing was so good.
Me : Awak dulu belajar course apa?
She : Saya diploma interior design jugak dulu. Before masuk diploma pun
interview macam ni jugak.
Me : So nak masuk degree pun kena interview lagi ke?
She: yes. Awak dulu belajar course apa?
Me : Owh…saya course engineering. Tapi memang minat interior design. Itu yang
apply untuk degree tu.
Then someone called my name. It’s my turned. Bismillahi
rahmani Rahim.. Rabbi yassir wala tu’assir. First step in that room made me so
nervous. But Alhamdulillah He ease me. When I sat in front of the interviewer,
all the nervousness was gone. Then interview session started.
He asked me to introduce myself in English. As usual I started
with my name, age, family and my life target. At first when I introduced my
name, he acted like usual. Just listening what I was talking about. Then only
when I said that I studied in engineering for my diploma, he started stared at
me. Then he said:
“Saya risaukan awak sebenarnya.”
I was shocked at that moment.
“Ramai student yang nak masuk engineering tapi tak dapat,
awak dah dapat and dah grad tapi awak nak lepas macam tu je? ” He said
Keep smiling.
“Saya ada 2 sebab kenapa saya pilih kos ni. Saya sangat
berminat dengan kos ni semenjak saya sekolah menengah. Second saya ada penyakit
migraine. Saya suka belajar dalam course Civil engineering tetapi dia lebih
banyak kepada activity outdoor. Saya tak boleh terlalu expose pada sunlight. Nanti
saya akan sakit kepala.”
Then he replied me back.
“Bila saya tengok result awak, you are good in calculation. Awak
boleh score dalam subject tu. Kalau awak diterima masuk ke bidang interior
design, saya risau kalau awak tak boleh score.bidang ni takde calculation. Banyak
belajar melukis je.”
He provoke me again.
“course ni boring taw kalau awak tak minat. Awak takpe ke?
My answered was simple. “yes I’m okay with it.”
“Course ni busy taw.banyak kerja and assignment. Nanti awak
tak sempat nak tidur rehat..awak sanggup?”
Me : bagi saya itu tidak menjadi masalah sebab semasa saya
di diploma pun, kerja dan assignment sangat banyak. And I’m okay with it.
Mr Interview : so awak betul-betul nak la ni?
Me : yes I am. J
Mr Interview : I like your confident level. tapi saya harap
awak fikir masak-masak sebelum awak tukar kos ini. Kalau ikutkan memang awak
lulus tapi saya risau kerana background study awak semasa diploma dulu adalah
engineering.
Me : insyaallah ni pilihan terbaik saya.
Mr Interview : So saya rasa setakat ini sahaja lah sesi
interview kita. All the best.
Fuhhh..soalan perangkap ! and Alhamdulillah He ease my way
for this interview session. I think it’s satisfied me a lot even my drawing was
not so good.
So sekarang just menunggu result untuk sambung ke degree
nanti. Tawakkaltu ‘alallah. Allah tahu apa yang terbaik untuk diri saya.
Soalan-soalan yang saya study before interview:
- Sebab pilih course tersebut.
- Kenapa pilih UiTM?
- Siapa interior designer yang saya kenal?
- Potensi interior design di Malaysia
Sekian...
