I've been working in MSIG Melaka for 5 and half months, soon to be 6 months on the 15th of February.
Time flies.
I remember when the first day I enter this company without any knowledge on the industry as well as the job function, company backgrounds and core value. As time passes, I gradually understand the company's background, culture and the industry. Many people have poor perspective on insurance and does not seem this industry as lucrative. However, as I'm in industry, I started to like this industry and would like to continue my career path in this industry. I started to forgone my previous aim which is to be a researcher and would like to further pursue in this industry.
As people grow, their objective and perspective of life changes. When I was very young, I always project myself to be the corporate lady who works in a large corporation, attending meetings everyday, positioned in the upper management in the corporation just like HK TVB drama series. Nevertheless as I grow, I feel that this kind of projection does not suit me but currently this kind of projection returns if I continue to strive in this industry. I doubt I can be a manager in future but I hope I can be at least assistant manager or head of department.
In order for me to excel in this industry I've taken the professional course (AMII). It was rather fast for newcomers as normally they only decide to take it after they've been in the industry for a year o two. Apparently I skipped the DMII which and heading straight to AMII. Hopefully I'm able to cope it and when I believe I can means I'm able to do it. I just need to positive energy surrounds me to keep me and my aim moving forward!
