How to Be That Intern Everyone Remembers (for the Right Reasons)
🎯 Interns, Listen Up! Here's How to Stand Out Without Losing Your Mind Starting your internship soon? Wanna impress your boss and not get labeled the "blur intern"? 👀 Here’s your go-to cheat sheet (with a splash of humor): 🔸 Be on time No, not “Malaysian time.” Set 2 alarms, maybe 3. Arrive 10-15 mins early and pretend you weren’t catching your breath from running. 🔸 Ask questions Yes, seriously. Don’t just nod like you understand the task. It shows you care. (And no, Googling in secret doesn’t count.) 🔸 Be informedStalk the company like you're checking out your ex's new partner. Know their history, vibe, and what they post on social media. 🔸 Dress to impressDon’t show up like you're going to a picnic or your cousin’s wedding. Ask about the dress code. And always, alwaysbring a backup outfit. Spills happen. 😅 🔸 Be positiveSmile. Not the creepy kind. Just be nice, polite, and approachable. Good vibes only nobody wants to work with a walking storm cloud. 🔸 Be sociableMingle! Say hi! You might meet your future business partner or just someone who knows where the free food is kept. Either way, worth it. 🔸 Be willingYou're not too cool to photocopy stuff or help with a boring spreadsheet. Show you're game for anything (within reason don’t mop the floor unless they really beg). 🔸 Communicate with your supervisorThey’re not just there to scare you. Build a good relationship future-you might need a killer recommendation letter.

How to Sound Smarter in Interviews – Instantly!
🚨 Interview Tips: What Not to Say (and What to Say Instead!) 🚨 Saying things like "I'm a team player" or "I work well under pressure" might sound good... but they're often too generic and overused. If you really want to stand out in an interview, it's all about being specific and action-driven. 💡 🟥 Instead of: “I’m good at multitasking”✅ Say: “I properly prioritize many projects to enhance productivity.” 🟥 Instead of: “I’m a team player”✅ Say: “I work efficiently with colleagues to achieve common goals.” 🟥 Instead of: “I’m dependable”✅ Say: “My coworkers can count on me to keep commitments.” Why does this matter? Because hiring managers want to hear how you work, not just what you are. 💬 Pro Tip: Turn every soft skill into a measurable or impactful statement. Show, don’t just tell. ✅ Want more interview tips like this? Stay tuned or drop a comment if you'd like me to break these down even further!
