After the one week training...i finally got a new job...I work as a marketing research executive in M.E located in K.L..
Initially, thr are 6 candidates including me..but after the first day..one of the candidate has dropped off and left 5 of us...the one week training covers mainly everything about my job..
On the first day, everyone of us has to give a brief introduction. My director briefly briefted us the company background...he is funny!!!Later on, the marketing manager briefted on all the event that carried out from the company...she explained very details and precise...quie impressive!!!
During lunch time, my director treat all of the trainees for lunch...wow...so nice..we ate at Pavilion-Old Town White Coffee..it was really a golden opportunity to have lunch with him... hehe
On the second day, the director pointed me to take over the floor and explained to him my understanding about my role in this job.....~~~~~~~so nervous....
Later on, my team leader took over the session and gave an event and gave us practice in doing research...
On the third day, one of the senior trained us in phone research...Firstly, he teached us on writing our script and also teached us how to deal with difficult situation...Later on, we have a role play. In the afternoon, we practiced our phone research on the phone with marketing research staff...Finally, it's time for us to go for the real one...
Each of us take turn and pass the phone around, we need to use loud speaker to do our phone research so that others can practice their listening skills as well...It was quite nervous to use loud speaker that everyone can hear how the conversation goes like...ish~~~
Luckily, I manage to get some verification from them...Good Job!!
On the fourth day, we need to practice on the dataase and familarise it...but it was tough...many times have to rmb...
Finally, it came to the last day of the training and early in the morning we have a so called "Review" instead of "Test" to understand how much we have picked up from the 4days training..
I'm glad that all the 12 questions are quite simply..Later on, all the key trainers allocated us into different market. I am incharged in LSE-Large Scale Event..meaning to say my target audiences are very broad and I can get in touch with everyone from all over the world...
After that, they brought us to our "secret" workplace...I indicated it as "secret" because they didnt show us our workplace during the training period but only for today..
The workplace is quite pack actually...thr are 4 role of ppl sitting back to back from each line for all the researcher and another special roll at the corner for the marketing executives...thr are no own cubicle for everyone...meaning to say everyone is sitting side by side...
I was quite unfamiliar with the workplace but no choice have to adapt to it...I was sitting between Terry-the most noisy ppl in the dept and Roziah-our admin staff in the dept...both of them all quite friendly and helpful...
Welcome my new job...Go go fighting!!!
