Idah Noraidah - Mrs Shuhandy

At a point in time in my life this year, I felt that I was being pushed to the edge. I wanted very much to quit my job as I really wanted to do something else. After working for 7 years in the same company, I wanted a change. I found myself dragging my feet to work and I didn’t want to stay too long in the office.

When things are at the edge, there’s one thing for sure – its time to go for something new. It’s time to learn new things and get my hands on new work scope. It wasn’t easy I must say. Though it was much bragged that there are a lot of new work positions available in the market, it’s for sure that it’s hard to get a call for an interview. I have sent quite a number of resume online and it is always the commonly used “thank you message” that I’ve received.

“We regret that Only Short listed candidates will be notified”

“We are currently processing your application and thanks for your interest”

I was despair because here I am fighting with the major changes in the company and on the other hand, no one is calling me up for an interview.  Is it me or am I just not good enough to be given a chance? I told my Fiancé of my decision to send in my resignation letter even though I didn’t have any job waiting for me after my resignation. He was against my decision as expected as we have to save up for our wedding next year and holding on to my current job is my security for our savings. To rebel means, I am just acting based on my emotions and feelings. I was suffocated by doing the same old thing over and over again. So why don’t I just move on and give other a chance for others to apply for my position?

“Alhamdulilah...when things seems to be at the edge, God will always be there to assist.. Looking at things from a different perspective now..”

Yes Alhamdullilah, I received a called from the largest broadcaster company in Singapore for an opportunity. It was an interview that I have longed waited for and its time for me to sell myself and shine. There were mixed feelings from being anxious to nervous to excited – If this is what you have for me God, then I shall prove to them that I can do it! I shall do my very best for ace the interview. And yes I did!

Exactly a week later, I’ve received the offer from them and I accepted it.

Im counting down now to the days – my new career is waiting for me, things are working well for both of us (me and Fiancé) and Alhamdullilah God has bless me in many ways..

Im thankful…im looking forward to a great future ahead and may God guide me along the way..Insya Allah….
