Are you graduate from '巨牛' TONG JI UNI?
I graduated only from the second level uni in china and have 5 years really rubbish experience their, never did a really project, never did any structal calculation.
English even rubblish, no saving come to OZ.
worked 2 yearr kitchen hand and other jobs, which still think back home to be a 好汉
study another master degree by the way which help is only to my English and thinking.
first job application is to the council, interviewed with civil manger and no answer.
second application is the tunnel job, 3 interviews in 1 week.
1. with HR will check you background, if you satisfy they tick the box. they even want to call back to china to confirm the reference.
2. with the company (pay me and not the Alliance) technical manager, check my technical skills, I realise they really need people can use the CAD. I was asked 'what you think the character is important in the working field". my reply is " DETAIL IS THE MOST IMPORTANT IN THE CIVIL ENGINEER FIELD". I think the reply is really make him happy. I have never met so strict drawing check like him as the follwing working days.
3. with the project manager, (I think I have got the job in the stage, the HR is preparing the document and check the background). the project manager roughly talk about the project going on, and what task of my team, the job start date.
4. received a phone call from the HR next day, 'we can only give you one year experience in china, give you $30/hour as contract (I ask 45k/a when apply), do you happy?'. I reply ' I am so TMD happly, but is that possible to change the contract as a full time job'.
I really at the begaining want a start salary, or even a expeience without paid, based on my experience, english and education
5. came to the office next monday, find my desk, manger give a evolpe ask me to read and sign. it is so thick and I just roughly look at ' permant job, title Civil Eningeer, 55k/a, holiday entitle, company share I can buy..etc.' quick make a copy and sign.
6. the first month is so hard, English, theory, CAD, report system. received a small task in the second day about to drawing a connection for a column to ground with H.D bolt.
WO KAO' I have never learen that'.(no maybe 5 mins will finish). I really want to ask my leader 'can you help me to finish this as you can do it in 2 mins), really want to leave as I know I do not have the ability.
but as the BRIEFS, 'you do not push me leave, 我TMD就不走'. I will start little by little as pupil.
things get easier, as learn everyday, I recall I was really a pupil that time, I am really feel I am the man they will not push away, I finish job quick, I organise well, I communicate well (email, talk, writting notes, just make others understand), a lot of joke everyday, lots of staff come to me ask help for the little things. sallay increased 40% plus allwance. baby just born, and reveied lot of flowers at home from the company or Alliance working on. every big company I have some leader I was working with, easy to change jobs as they can be my referal. still a lot of to learn, and I know if learn that, easy to work in UK or USA.
so what I think:
step in is the most important, even experience without pay.
we can not imagin to start as a senior level as in china, senior level does need a lot of local expeience, we do not familar the specifiation, manual, and how to talk to the government, and English is the biggest obstruction whatever how long you working abroad.
use well one software, speciliszd in one direction, structal, civil, drain, geo or survey to make yourself step into the industry, then you can learn when you join some projects.
HOPE MY ENGLISH CAN BE UNDERSTOOD, CAN CONTRIBUTE SOME HELP TO THE FOLLOWINGS. |
