After my graduation that was march 2005, I was lucky enough to have a my first Job april of 2005.I got my first Job because my employer was impressed with my experience even if I am a fresh graduate. On my college years I work while studying at the same time..that was my plus factor to get the Job.

I am quite lucky because I got a scholarship offered by a multi-national company in 1997. I studied a 4 years course, so the scholarship offered is in 4 years term. And, after finished my study, according to what's agreed upon in the contract, I need to work in that company for 4 years. In fact, after completing my study, I had been requesting for a 1 month break before I started my carrier. However, due to their work demand, I was asked to start working just 2 weeks after finished my 4 year course. Therefore, I was offered my first job automatically after graduation because of the scholarship contract.

You are most welcome 
Am not really doing great in previous company, but my encounter is considered ordinary but yet lucky. I has been offered an oversea relocation for one year in 2002. It was fun because I got the opportunity to gain exposure in foreign country. In 2004, after my scholarship contract ended, I moved to another company with much promising future.

It took me 5 months before I got my first job. I graduated march 2004, got my first job on august 2004. My first job was in a bank. My employer was impressed with my resume because I passed two civil service exams which graduates of my age rarely passed!

i send my personal brief introduction email to the company and job websites.after days and weeks i receive many replies and let me go to interview and consequently many companies satisfy with me.but i just consider the distant between my home and the company,i choose the worst company include lowest salary and hardest work situation i think back now.i learned a lesson that choose a job must be think about comprehensively and seriously.
