tired, interview didn't go well

i think i need massage.. my arm is aching from too much computer. wanted to write in to acnielsen for their advertised position before going to bed. but am too tired...

interview didn't go well today. was interviewed with another guy who had been working in a few research firm for the past 1-2 years and another fresh grad gal. i think i messed up the 1-1 interview and the written test. that guy wrote non-stop. maybe i am not that analytical. ohya, how did i mess up the 1-1 interview? i did the following:

1) asked if posted to china, am i able to hold the fort there. i told her not an issue, only difficulty will be to do up quotation for client and close deals. well, apparently, this is a huge part of the job. so.. well.. badz..

2) she asked what's the greatest difficulty i foresee i will face in the job. i said it will be the statistical part. i will take a while to fully appreciate how the statistics translate into actionable results. so she conclude i am not numerically inclined and she was surprised. oh man.. why was i so honest?

i think my ans for the above 2 were quie a killer liaoz. fantastic... :S

another 1 called me for 2nd interview. maybe that is more suitable for me since it's more of interaction with people.. oh well, see how the interview goes...

today is officially the last day for me. but didn't really feel like it cos haven't packed and hand over all the stuff. will be going back office for 1-2 days next wk to do it. applied for a temp marketing job. if can get it, i will be able to search for job patiently since got income.

tomorrow going zoo at 6.30am! going to bed liaoz.. night..
