Getting acquainted

Starting the practical, I was quite excited and nervous as well. And after the first day, I figured out why and how this internship had moved and shaped the way an amateur eye of mine depict the corporate and public relations in terms of practical. I did my internship at IRDA, Iskandar Regional Development Authority located in Johor Bahru, Malaysia. IRDA has a branch in Kuala Lumpur but the company focuses on Johor state, Southern part of Malaysia.

I really think that I should googled, a map of where it is located and the logo of the company to introduce and get you well acquainted of where I'm going to spend my December 1st, 2010- January 31st, 2011.

Since the first day, I had the sense that I am at the right place and really motivated where I am going to learn more, explore more, which I found it will be a really rollercoaster experience since my assigned supervisor hasn't returned from out of town.

The first Wednesday I stepped my foot and set my intention straight to business, I pictured a hot and cold new practical trainee face. It actually, washed away quickly, as soon as the human resource staff, showed up and gave a really brief and warm welcome.

Even though the first day had long passed, For Your information, I'm on my fourth week now, I found the first impression of the work place and experience will be the most played and remembered long after I finished this internship and a memorable day to share.

How was your first day or week of internship? Don't forget to leave comments, feedback or insights as soon as you read my first blog post :D

Enjoy your first month of internship, people!!!
