Mauritius Blog Tracker

Greetingz everybody ;). Ok, first of all, i apologize ( also most of u know it’s faked…but still…) for being late by 1 day in publishing this blog post! Indeed, c dure dure  la vie qu’on mene quand on travaille (life is tough when one works).

I started with small jobs since a very young age, I still remember selling bananas for my Grandma when i was in primary. But fear not, it was not the desperate need for money that made me a banana seller and i was not forced either…I did it simply for fun :p I really enjoyed doing that,  and best of all, some people bought the banana not because they wanted those, but rather because I was the seller !That’s not all, I was even a vegetable seller in the Market at Rose Belle :p

After my HSC, i worked with my cousin in his mobile phone shop in Port Louis, job position: a mixture of sales-boy and customer care.

And when my BSc neared it’s end a days before the last exam papers, I started sending templated job application emails to dozens of IT companies in Mauritius. Well, i knew using template was no good at all, but i was kind of frustrated actually: I wrote 2 or 3 individual application letters and those companies did not even bother answering back.

From the dozens of companies receiving templated applications, ONE replied. We’ll refer to it as company A. In fact, someone from company A phoned me and asked me to come for an interview at Ebene. Was a very informal kind of interview, in Creole and at the end of that ‘interview’ i was offered a job position as trainee web developer.Stayed with that company hoping that it will be The one.Unfortunately, company A didn’t meet my expectation at all. (they seem to be exploiting their employees!)

Some days later, company B sent me an email, asking me for an interview and things start getting more interesting at this point….[i have to go watch stargate atlantis which my friend provided me with, so the job hunting post will continue tomorrow :p]
