It has been a long long time since i feel that i am lucky. Or maybe perhaps not, just that 3 years have passed, and finally i got what i want.
The saying goes... 等久就有...
Today i accepted an offer, and yesterday i rejected one.
I finally got a perm job, still Citi thou.
For the past few days, i really got the feelings like 3 yrs back. 3 yrs ago, i was being offered a perm position at a local bank, ops, and its at tampines. Then i got another offer, which is my current job, a contract, at Citi FX desk. I chose the latter, and sometimes i do regret my choice, cos i ended up being stuck at my contract position for so long, and yet cannot be converted to perm.
Last wed, after my second interview, i was offered the job, just that HR hasnt come back to me on my package. As i waited for HR, i got a call frm bank B asking me to go down for interview. About 2 mths back, i went for an interview with bank B, and i feel really demoralised after the whole interview. So, i was kind of shock when they called me up to go for anothr round of interview after so long.
I went for 2 days, met a total of 5 interviewers! and i was offered the job too! so, i got to make a decision again. Bank B offered a higher pay, but its a middle office aka ops position, and there is alot of UAT testing to be done, so i was quite certain of what i want this time round. I chose Citi, which is to be an AB. Thou sales is not my cup of tea, i know the prospects would be better. And the happy thing is.... They are willing to match Bank B's offer...
I am looking forward to my new job.
But i am going to miss my lovely fx desk colleagues.
