What's the most rewarding moment you could think of from your life so far?
For me personally, I think this very moment is one of those that've happened in my life.
I haven't written any blogpost recently because of two reasons: One, I haven't had any major breakthrough in my life so far, after coming back from Japan last February; and two, because I got a handful of things I need to take care of.
Yes, I got my Master's Degree last April. Even so, I don't think it really is something I could be proud of. Surely, I'm grateful that I could finally escaped from all those chemicals in the lab, nevertheless, I haven't got any proper job so I'm not very pleased with myself. I was truly devastated when I got a response from the Japanese company at which I had done internship before, that I was not selected as one of the candidates to be offered full-time position. I know for sure how depressing a jobless-life could be, I was in that position 3 years ago. I was mad with myself and my inabilities to show people how much I do worth, and at the top of that depression I decided to go back to college, even though I don't really like theoritical-based study.
I got several project-based jobs after my graduation. My colleagues called me to help them working on some Engineering Details. My part-time boss also signed me up for a new project for his business. I sent more than 50 job applications, and got several tests and interviews which made me need to go back and forth to the capital. I actually got three plus one job offers. One is from a Japanese company in Indonesia, as a Sales & Marketing staff. But if I accept this job offer, I need to move to Cikarang and work mostly in factory area. It does not sound like a good idea, so I declined it. The second is from an Indonesia Engineering Consultant company, as a Junior Instrumentation Engineer. The application process for this position was fast, to the point that I think it's too rushing and overwhelming. I like the idea of being an Instrumentation Engineer, but personally I think I lack too much for that. And with other personal insights, I decided to decline this offer as well. The third is from one of the subsidiary of Indonesian State Oil Company, as an apprentice. This one is actually tempting, despite the minimum wage, because I could go back and work in my hometown. The personnel sound really nice as well, Idk but I just feel comfortable speaking with them. But after some considerations and another offer, I declined this one as well. The fourth and last offer I got was from this one company I'm currently in now. I'm not one of their employees yet, I'm still in the middle of 3-month training process. And this training is one of the reason I rarely got in touch with people recently.
