Omg! So yesterday (November 25th), they just declared that my training was over. It was only my 2nd day out of 12 days of training and now I’m hired?!?!?! I was surprised! That was crazy! Idk what happened! I’m nervouuuuuus!
I was actually ranting about my application in this company last Thursday in my private Twitter account because I have not received any message regarding the start of my training for more than a week then since my final interview. I thought I was already rejected. But later on the same day, I received a message that I will start my training the next day at 7am.
My first day of training was quite surprising. I didn’t expect that I’d be assigned to the Sales Department because I applied for a position in the Admin and Finance. I went with the sales agents’ Team in Sara and Lemery (both parts of Northern Iloilo) just commuting and we have to hop from one account to another. Imagine the hassle plus the weather was crazy that time. It was too hot one minute then raining hard the next (I wasn’t really prepared for it, tbh). It was already nearly 7pm when we arrived back in our town and I was dead tired! They even joked na baka hindi na raw ako bumalik the next day, but of course, I did come back. I may look mahinhin pero game ako sa kahit ano (but not to face a crowd, okay? Lol.) and I’m a scaredy cat, yes, but it doesn’t mean that I don’t want to be challenged. I get nervous on the little things, but it does not mean I give up too easily. No matter how nervous I could get, I wanna go on with what I’ve started.
On the 2nd day, I was already assigned to the Finance Department. My trainer was actually surprised that I am already assigned to her area because she was instructed beforehand that she would be my last. I observed, listened, and tried a bit of what she was doing. Later that afternoon, the tension came in (or at least, I kind of felt it on my part). When one of the employees told me that the management will talk to me, I got a bit nervous, something which was kinda unusual, especially when I realized that my trainer was called first before me. And then, I heard the news. My training was over and now, I’m hired, but on the other hand, my trainer will be assigned to another branch. She was crying when she got out of the management room. I didn’t know how to react. I don’t know if I should be happy or sad. I kind of felt guilty, but no, nothing was my fault. It was never my decision.
In all honesty, I’ve heard a lot of hearsays about the workload of the company. They said it’s a lot and that I could find a lot better company that pays high without me going for OT’s every time, especially that I am a CPA, but I don’t want to stop going just because the people around me said so. I want to stop going because me, in my heart, does not want it. And for now, nothing inside me stops me from entering the company because after all, I am not into anything for now but learning and experiences. I’m a fresh grad. This would be my first and I wanted to grow as early as possible. And perhaps, though they said there would be a lot of work here this is something that could help me grow.
Right now, I won’t deny the fact that I’m nervous about what might be ahead of me now that I am finally hired. They’re still giving me a maximum of 3 days to process my requirements. I’m quite terrified of the workload that might be given to me, but I’m more nervous about adjusting. I am more nervous on the people that I would get to deal with, but I’m certain, God will help me with this. He gave this to me because He knows I could. And who am I to question that? This is a blessing and I’m gratefully accepting it. Let’s just hope and pray for the best ❤
