JOHOR BAHRU: Seorang lelaki berusia 40-an tergamak menghantar bapa kandungnya berusia 70 tahun yang diserang angin ahmar ke Pusat Jagaan Nur Ehsan, Kempas, di sini, dan enggan mengaku dia anak warga emas itu, sebaliknya mendakwa dia hanya jiran yang prihatin terhadap nasib lelaki tua berkenaan.

Bagaimanapun, tembelang lelaki terbabit yang juga jurutera di sebuah syarikat swasta di bandar raya ini terbongkar apabila pengurusan pusat jagaan berkenaan membuat semakan dengan beberapa pihak.

Ketika mendedahkan perkara itu, Pengurus Pusat Jagaan Nur Ehsan, Norijah Bidin berkata, jurutera terbabit yang juga anak tunggal warga emas berkenaan menghubungi pihaknya dan bertanya mengenai kemudahan di pusat itu bermula bulan lalu.

“Lelaki terbabit mengaku jiran warga emas berkenaan dan dalam perbualan telefon, dia menyatakan simpati terhadap nasib lelaki tua itu.


“Lelaki itu turut mendakwa warga emas berkenaan hidup sebatang kara, justeru, dia berhasrat menghantarnya ke pusat jagaan kami.


“Pada masa sama, warga emas itu juga mengalami kesulitan untuk berkomunikasi selain nyanyuk dan gagal memberikan maklumat berkaitan warisnya,” katanya di sini, semalam.

Job Interview Answer: What Was the Biggest Accomplishment in This Position?

By Alison Doyle, About.com Guide

Your potential employer will want to know what you accomplished, and what you didn't, in your current or last position.

The best way to respond is to give an example of something you accomplished that is directly related to the job you are interviewing for. Review your resume and review the job posting. Find the best match and use that to show how what you accomplished will be beneficial to the company you are interviewing with.

If you wrote a targeted cover letter when applying for the job use the information you included to create your response. For example, if you are interviewing for a job at a school where you will need to manage student registration, explain to the interviewer how you registered students for courses, designed and managed registration software, and solved customer problems.

If you didn't fail at anything, say so. If you can think of an example, be sure that it's a minor one and turn it into a positive. For example, if you were working on a project that was behind deadline, explain to the interviewer how you adjusted the workload and the timeline to get back on track and ahead of schedule.

Job Interview Answer: Describe Your Employment History

By Alison Doyle, About.com Guide

Interviewers expect a candidate for employment to be able to review their work history in detail. Be prepared to tell the interviewer the names of the companies you worked for, your job title, your starting and ending dates of employment, how much you earned and what your job entailed.

You'd be surprised how many job applicants fumble when asked about prior employment. Don't be one of them! Refresh your memory prior to the interview by reviewing your resume, so, you can speak about your prior work history in detail and accurately.

If you don't have a resume, make sure what you tell the interviewer matches what you filled out on your job application. The best way to prepare is to download a sample job application ahead of time. Complete the sample application and bring it with you when you are applying for employment. This way you will be able to copy the information rather than having to remember dates and other employment information.

Job Interview Answer: What Were Your Expectations for the Job?

By Alison Doyle, About.com Guide

In many cases, interviewers will want to know what you expected from your last job when you were hired, so, be be prepared to answer the interview question "What were your expectations for the job and to what extent were they met?"

There isn't a right or wrong answer to this question. The best way to respond is to discuss what you expected when you took the job and give examples of how the position worked out for you. If the job wasn't exactly what you expected, it's fine to mention that. However, you should focus on the job itself, not the company, your boss, or your co-workers (if they were a problem). Do be careful how you answer and don't focus too much on the negative. Instead, address the highlights of the job.

When responding, be specific. Prepare some examples to share with the interviewer in advance. For example, if your job involved creating web applications using Cold Fusion, discuss the specific programs you developed and the responsibilities you were given. If you were provided training and opportunities for professional development to help you achieve your goals, mention that, as well.

When the interviewer asks "When Was The Last Time You Were Angry? What Happened?" he or she wants to know if you lose control. The real meaning of the word "angry", to an interviewer, is loss of control and it's important to know how you handle situations when you're angry.

Anger to me means loss of control. I do not lose control. When I get stressed, I step back, take a deep breath, thoughtfully think through the situation and then begin to formulate a plan of action.
