Summer Exchange with AIESEC (1)

Hello. Long time no post in my blog. So this time I’m gonna write about something. My relationship between me and AIESEC.  I won’t explain about AIESEC clearly because you have gadget and you can type in google like…….”What is AIESEC?” (don't you pronounce it aiesex even ayosex-_-). So AIESEC is an International Organization for young people with leadership development. Yup, I think it is hahaha. Okay. To the point. AIESEC has a program called “Global Youth Ambassador Program” and it’s why I’m interested to join with this organization. Fyi, I know AIESEC from my high school friend, she told me was like

“Omg! That girl joined AIESEC! She’s so cool!”

and I replied was like “What the hell is AIESEC?”

“AIESEC is an organization for developing your English”

“Oh is it? I don’t care, btw.”

“That organization is so cool!”

“You have to be a part of it, then”

“-_-“

Our conversation about AIESEC ended like that and several years later when I watched Puteri Indonesia pageant, the winner is introduced as Vice President of AIESEC Diponegoro University and I was like……”Oh that cool organization?”. Well, it always ended like that until my friend in dorm come to my room and he asked one of my roommate to join “Global Youth Ambassador Program” and it’s provided by AIESEC. Once again, I was like “Oh that organization!” and I was listening to all what he was saying and I just found out that AIESEC is really really cool! He told us that AIESEC could give us opportunities to exchange, student exchange that I’ve never dreamt about it before. I joined this GYAP, then. I signed up, made CV, Motivation letter, Parents permission and weeks later, I was told that I will be interviewed.

I wasn’t nervous about the interview because I think it would go well but a day before the interview I was. I really was. And the interview day came out. I was interviewed by 2 guys and here are the questions I remember..

“Please introduce yourself.”

“Tell me about yourself.”

“What is your strength and weakness?”

“How people talk about you?”

“What 3 countries you want to go by joining this exchange?”

“What do you know about those countries?”

“What world issues you are interested with?”

“If you aren’t picked up at the airport what will you do?” I replied I will call my mom. Lol

“If you have a problem with you host family and you are evicted, what will you do?” Honestly I told them that I will ask my mom for money so I can live in a hostel. What else? I’m mommy boy lol

“Do you know about LGBT?” Yes. “What if your roommate is one of them?” I don’t care it’s their choice, in my eyes they are all humans. As long as they don’t any something disgusting. “And how if they do?”  Well I’m just replying with my smile. Hahahaha

Well there are so many questions but I couldn’t remember one by one. You should join so you can know.

I didn’t do well, I didn’t give my best answers, and that time I knew that I wouldn’t pass the interview. BUT.

I GOT THIS ONE THAT MADE ME SPEECHLESS HAHAHAHA

After I passed the interview I have to sign contract and pay for about 100$ and I could search for a project now. My eyes fixed on Thailand and China project. Thailand project called Sawasdee Project and China project called East Meets West. (I didn’t chose because I know it takes much money and I don’t want to bother my parents (but I really want to! Russia Ukraine! Oh!). After I applied the projects they sent me an email for an interview.

Interview with Thailand.

I was so nervous because it’s my first time to be interviewed with using English. (I mean the first time to be interviewed with the one who can’t speak Bahasa so we only use English.)

The questions is not really different with the questions I got in my first interview. And again I felt like I didn’t do my best because the interviewer didn’t smile while interviewing me and I was like “Arrrgh!”.

BUT

I PASSED THE INTERVIEW. Lol

Interview with China

This interview was the best interview I’ve done. I wasn’t nervous (maybe a lil bit), I got my confidence, I answered with all my heart and interviewer smile and sometimes she laughed and I believe that I would pass this Interview and I did! Yeay!

I PASSED LIKE I EXPECTED!

So I have two choices and I told my mom and my mom said to me to chose China. Because I’ve never been to China and I want something new and now I’m waiting for my Invitation letter so I can make a visa soon. I’m sorry Jane (girl who interviewed me) for asking so many questions, I did it because I really want to have a project in China. I know maybe you found me annoying but I’m sorry hehehe^^ I’m not a full member of AIESEC. But after this summer exchange I will take role with this cool organization.

So this is my story with AIESEC (THANKYOU AIESEC!) and I hope you enjoy and please always keep bloging on my blog. I hope you have a great night and goodbye!
