Yep. It's confirmed!
As of today, 1st June 2005, I am officially employed as a full time staff with the Singapore International Foundation. Yep, my 4 months contract has been terminated and I've converted my temp status to one of perm staff.
Ah... stability smells good.
Well, i guess my one big wish, i've gotten. Praise God for that. I can still rem my dilemma in deciding what's good for my career. First was convertium, it was a sales and marketing position; i was glad to have turned that down in the end. Second, cold storage turned me down, followed by 77th st and then came SIF. I guess, deciding to just give it a shot as a temp staff was really the turning point of my career move. At that time, it didn't seem to be the best and logical move. But somehow all directions from everywhere pointed that way, and so i took it up, and now, i'm glad I did. I finally can say, I have a career. My future is starting to show clearly.
But of coz, the stress level and expectations are higher now, so I must continue to perform well, if not, better. But nevertheless, I am glad everything worked out fine eventually. Most imptly, what was offered was a fairly good deal. Of coz there is a pay increase, but is the benefits that are really surprising. Benefits are quite good at least for a non-profit, non-government organisation.
My parents are happy, kevin is happy and I am happy with what has happened. :)
Thank you to those who has encouraged me in one way or another about my chioce to join SIF as a temp staff. The extra push helped.
Cheers everyone!
