Tired but happy

I've started working for a week now, and I love that place, love the team, and love the children!!
The staff are all very nice to me, and teach me a lot of new things. They also make sure that I'm alright at work, and yeah, everything is good!

Job hunting (2)

So, I went to the interview for the one that I felt uncomfortable, and God closed the door! haha! They said they would want an experienced teacher because their centre is fairly new and they only have one with experienced at the moment. So, yey! God close the door! ^^
It's good that they gave me the result of the discussion the very next day, while I am actively searching for job on the internet. I came across one that is a very big company that has over 100 centres in New Zealand. I have been considering to go into big company for a very long time.So decided to give it a go.Applied in writing that day, and got the phone call the next day, and interview the next day after.

During the interview, it was only the HR manager that interviewed me, and she referred me to a centre where she think would be the best for me, but she said that it's not up to her to make the decision; it is the centre's manager and me. So yeah, I went to see the centre, and have a chat with the centre manager, and while chatting, we just clicked because of something in common interest that we share. And yeah, straightaway I rang the HR manager and told her that I like the place and would like to join the team.

So, the HR manager has to ring the referees of mine, she has to at least get 2 out of the 3 references. But after ringing the 1st one, she told me she couldn't get hold of the second one whom is having holiday at the beach. And she told me to wait until next week to give me the final outcome. And then within the next few minutes, the HR manager rang back and said, the Business manager told her to 'just give me the job'. In my heart I'm like "Whoa!!! Praise God!!" This is indeed a miracle to me! Got a job in just that one day!!!! haha!

Job hunting (1)

I have been looking for jobs and interviewing since January, but they all asked me to wait, for the reasons that it's New Year period, and then I have to wait for them to get to the end of interviews.

I am not the person of patient, I keep looking out for posts that are advertised in Education Gazette (a magazine that is published by the Ministry of Education), and the outcomes are:

-there's one that I really like in Paraparaumu (Kapiti Coast), which is a town near Wellington, but Mum was like why do you have to go so far to work when you can easily find jobs in Hamilton.

-another one that I hoped to get in, but they rejected me to go for the interview = ="!!!

-some centres I did went to interview, and got rejected because the amount of people that applied is just overwhelming

-some I couldn't wait because they are new centres, and only open in March/April.

-Then, another one is a centre that I don't really feel comfortable. I went to look at the centre, but then I felt it's all good. And I told the manager that I would want to have a formal interview. It's only when I had the chance to work as a reliever that I felt a bit uncomfortable, but when I asked my friends if there's any case of people pulling out of interview, they all marah (scold) me. Then, I can only pray to God and said, I really don't like it, can you please don't let them employ me... I think no one would make that kind of prayer to ask God to close the door.

But during this period of waiting time, Revelation 3:7-8

To the angel of the church in Philadelphia write: These are the words of him who is holy and true, who holds the key of David. What he opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open. I know your deeds. See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut. I know that you have little strength, yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name.

These two verses gave me an endorsement that everything we do, everything we have and going to have; or everywhere we go is endorse by God. It's just amazing that you know when you are a child of God, you are protected, and guarded by Him. I don't know how other people feel when they are rejected for a job especially during this time of the economy downturn, but I felt that joy keep flowing inside of me when I'm rejected. When I texted other people and told them I'm rejected, they were all asking if I'm alright, and I said yes, perfectly alright because God holds the pass to whatever company that I'm going into.
