Long Time No Blog

Hi everybody.

Long time no see and yes I was absent in writing (blogging) for a very long time since my last post was 2013.

In anyway, I decided to be active again since I want to make my life memories on this page (blog) which I think it will be resminicing in the future or when I get older.

I will talk about a shortcut story when I stopped / vacuum blogging since 2013.

I will start with the short course scholarship I got from Kyushu University to study at the Ateneo de Manila University in the Philippines, followed by my focus to study in my university in Jakarta afterwards and 1 year before my graduation and thesis defense, I was really busy doing internships, part-time jobs, my thesis itself and attending courses. Then, I got graduated by March 2015 from Binus University with a title "S.E (Sarjana Ekonomi)" or literally means "Bachelor of Economy".

Honestly speaking, I actually got a job already even before my graduation. My first full-time job was Management trainee program at OPPO Indonesia HQ. Then after 3 months of working, I was finally assigned as a Head Trainer for Jakarta region in there. In a nutshell, I was not satiesfied with the job eventhough I know there are a lot of people who wanted to get the position where I were. But afterall, passion comes first, I love to speak english, I love to connect with more International mind out there. Besides, It was not favourable to be in OPPO because I saw so many unhonest employees, even the bosses and the environment is not simply what I was looking for in my career track. So, I only stay less then a year and decided to move on from there.

In early of 2016, I chose to settle back in my hometown, Medan. I tried to stay up with family and rest up before I decided where should I go next. I finally continue my career with a local manufacturing frozen and canned seafood company in Medan. The job I did there was an International marketer for exporting. Basically, I really like the job but frankly speaking it is not about the job we like to do. Due to my condition back then, I felt like I cant save money much eventhough I felt the job is contented with what I learned back in University. Again and again, I just last for 3 months there which was the probation duration. I decided not to continue and choose to pursue career abroad. It was May 2016 that I decided to go to the Philippines to look for job. First of all, Philippines was not my first choice of course, but It was too difficult for me to get job in Singapore. Second, I know Philippines is where the BPO industries rule. Hence by that mean, I realized there are a lot of multilingual speaking job in the Philippines. Luckily, I am fluent in English and Indonesian Bahasa. Talking about getting a job here in the Philippines, it was surely not easy. I did get an offer in the first month when I stayed there, but then I was choosy. What happened was I did not realized that multi-lingual jobs there were very seasonal especially Bahasa Indonesia speaking job. Throughout all year, you can find Chinese speaking, Korean, Japanese and Spanish vacancies but not for Indonesian. I rejected few companies before I actually get a job and the duration was 3 months. Finally, by August 2016 I joined a company named CCP, Inc. Which the abbreviation stands for Container, Chassis & Parts, Inc. It's an US -based company but they are off-shoring in the Philippines to save some costs and yeah I am responsible for the Indonesian market on that time.

Okay, I think that is enough for now. I am sure my writing about my past here would be handy in one day for some people. If there is anybody who would like to know how to get job here, you also can ask me or if anything related. Without doubt, I will also talk my life and how is life in Metro Manila in my blog here too.

So stay tune~!
