How to Overcome Job Rejection (Indonesia)

Hello, Guys! Back with me, Azza. It's been a while since I posted my last writing here. Haha! Many things happened, and I need to make my priority. Sadly writing a blog wasn't my priority.

Ok, so today's topic is "How to Overcome Job Rejection". Why did I have to mention "Job Rejection"? It is because some of you might be misunderstanding this to those love confession rejection so I will make it clear. It is about Job Rejection guys!

Ok, I will be transparent for you. The list below is the name of companies who had been rejecting me at their job recruitment, internship, CSR scholarship, etc. I will mention it all for y'all! (Note: I'll update the list regularly)

1. Astra --> I failed at their 2nd step of Astra1st which is an online test. This is my first company rejection!
2. Nutrifood --> I didn't get a call from them to continue my internship selection phase. Haha. So bad!
3. Inkompass --> Failed on online test too. Lately, I feel grateful not to get selected because Inkompass is a cigarette company and it clearly contradicted with my major at Uni (I'm a public health student)
4. XL Axiata --> I applied for XL Future Leaders and I failed on the online test (again, and again~)
5. P&G --> Applied for the marketing internship. Again, my journey needs to stop after the online test phase. Haha. That's so bad! Actually, the test is like a personality test but I didn't pass it:(
6. Unilever SG --> Yes, your eyes is not wrong. It is Unilever Singapore. I pass the cv screening, but again, need to stop after the brain game test. Wtf
7. AMBIZ Indonesia --> Failed on the interview phase. I pass the cv screening and online test but didn't succeed at the interview.
8. Kraft Heinz (Management Trainee)
9. Danone (Management Trainee)
10. BCG Jakarta --> This is my latest rejection. Joined the recruitment event, passed the cv screening but didn't succeed at the online test. Do I feel sad? The answer is NO. I just feel a lil blue after my friends saying "I expected too much for this". Gee, hell no for me. Since the beginning, I was just curious about this company. I know the salary is very high for the fresh graduate but the workload is very big too. I said to my mom that maybe this is not the path for me. Maybe if I were selected, I can't live up my dream to be a Minister (I said to my mom that I'd like to be a Minister when actually I want to be a diplomat and ambassador. HAHA!). My mom answered, "Hell no. You can work there for up to 5 years and then you can continue your career as Minister". Gee Mom, NO. You don't know that I'd like to be an ambassador, that's why you say so. Nevermind, I'll keep my dream only for myself and my blog readers HAHA. Tho I dunno if there's anyone who ever read my blog LOL.

Kayyy back to the main topic. How to overcome Job Rejection. The first thing to do is you need to accept the rejection. Accept that you were being rejected by those companies and admit that maybe you still lack something that the companies' seeking for. Second, be grateful. Be grateful that you already arrived until this point. You passed the cv screening, you got the online test invitation, you got the interview invitation, etc. All that step that ever come to you, you need to be grateful of.
Third, forget it, let it go, and just continue your life. I believe God will give the best for us. I believe God knows what's inside our heart. God knows what your real dreams are and He will lead you to that place. For me, I'd like to be a diplomat or policymaker. I already know that I need to pursue my career in a governmental office, embassy, or the international field. Why? Because it can bring me faster to my main goal as a diplomat. Realize it or not, working at the private companies only keep me away from my dream. I never told this to anyone. Not until I already become a diplomat.

So yeah that's all the tips from me. Actually, I'm still learning too and I'm working hard to live up my dreams so I hope these tips will work for you Guys. I'll be very happy if the tips' working for ya. Comment down below if you have any question about this topic. See ya on the next post! xoxo

Random Song #1

Night ride will always be my dream. Though I feel it in almost everyday, but the feeling must be different when you do the night ride in a car with someone you love. I've always been dreaming about it since a long timeee ago. Maybe since I was still in Junior High School? But again the dream hasn't come true. Saaddd.

Then, instead of being trapped in a same mistake, same sad situation, and same dream that you can't achieve (haha it's actually mine but I use 'you' as an object lol pathetic me) I will give you a song recommendation. I randomly found this song in my youtube recommendation playlist. LOL thankyou so much Youtube! Actually Youtube is the one who recommends this to me HAHA. So without adding tooo much prologue, I'm going to tell you the title of the song, it is "San Fransisco Street" by Sun Rai.

Nah this below might be represents the feeling of listening to the song. Sun Rai himself also describing the song buy giving the video of a third person riding a car in highway street.

Asian Games 2018

Guys, parah sih ini udah tanggal 25 Sept 2018, udah mau H+30 sejak penutupan Asian Games tapi gue masih baper gitu loh kadang kalau lihat spanduk Asian Games 2018, ornamen-ornamennya, Bhin-bhin, Atung, Kaka, baju volunteer, dengerin lagu Isyana yang Asia's Who We Are bahkan ngeliat history chat whatsapp gue aja gue baper dong coyyy. Parah sih huhuhuhuhu.

Gue gak tahu ya kenapa gue bisa segitu bapernya sama suatu acara. Biasanya paling lama H+7 hari itu udah batas maksimal gue galon (gagal move on) sama suatu acara tapi ini gue udah mau H+1 bulan masih baper coba HAHAHAHA parah sihh. Gilsss.

Kalau dipikir-pikir mungkin karena olahraga itu seperti yang dibilang CDM gue, Mr. Rabani no seniority jadi orang fine-fine aja, bahagia, dan gak merasa tertekan dengan bossy-bossy nya orang. Ngerasanya kaya teman dan mates aja gimana sih yaa walaupun kalo gue jadi Protocol Assistant adalah yaa tekanan like tight schedule, pressure untuk timely dsb tapi di luar semua itu I am super fineee hahahaha missing those moments sihh. Andai momennya bisa diulang lagii gue pengen lebih menikmati every moment huaahuahuaaa.

Sumpah gue kangen Afghanistan, kangen kakek, kangen secgen, kangen atlit-atlit AFG, kangen vibes Asian Games 2018, kangen rasa proud gue sebagai Protocol Assistant, kangen naik Mercy nemenin VVIP guee, kangen whatsapp-an sama VVIP guaa HAHAHAHAHA bodoamat banyak banget yg dikangenin sih lololol.

Oiyaa I plan to join Tokyo Volunteer 2020 nih guyss though I know they are not open for Protocol Assistant position (huhu sad) but I still want to join because... gue pengen ketemu sekjen, kakek, dan my family in NOC Afghanistan hahahahaha.

Yauda de gitu aja ini suara hati manusia yang kangen Asian Games 2018. Kapan-kapan gue ceritain seluk beluk Protocol Assistant if i do have time ya... Byebyeee!
