MARA Career Seminar

On last Thursday, I have attended a seminar at my college. It’s really exciting, I’ve got many input from the speakers, such as how to make a good resume, how to be a good interviewee, skills that are needed as a good employee, and how to perform a good achievement at work. I’m really wondered on how the speakers attract us to pay our attention on their speeches. Thanks a lot to En. Mohd Sazali bin Keteh, En. Nor Idham bin Che Ghani, and En. Yazid bin Misnan.
