Role Play - Interview

today's tutorial activity focused on conducting an interview session, where each group was given the opportunity to play different roles, namely as the interviewee, interviewer, and human resource manager... the activity was designed to provide students with practical experience in the recruitment and selection process commonly used by organizations... three groups acted as job applicants with different educational backgrounds and work experiences... group 1 represented a candidate who possessed only an SPM qualification but had extensive and relevant work experience... group 2 portrayed a candidate with a Diploma qualification and part-time working experience gained while studying... meanwhile, group 3 represented a candidate with excellent Diploma results but no prior work experience... during the role-play session, the interviewers were responsible for asking questions related to the job position, qualifications, skills, and personal attributes, while the interviewees responded as realistically as possible based on their assigned profiles... at the end of each interview, the Human Resource Manager evaluated the candidate's performance, assessed their suitability for the position, and provided a final decision on whether the candidate should be offered employment with the company... this activity allowed students to develop their communication, critical thinking, decision-making, and interviewing skills while gaining a better understanding of how recruitment decisions are made in real workplace settings...

Heart Rate

heart rate is the number of times the heart beats in one minute and is measured in beats per minute (bpm)... it is an important indicator of cardiovascular health, physical fitness, and exercise intensity... the simplest way to calculate heart rate is by checking the pulse at the wrist or neck and counting the number of beats for a specific period... during exercise, heart rate is commonly used to determine whether a person is training at a light, moderate, or vigorous intensity... for most adults, a normal resting heart rate ranges from 60 to 100 bpm, while well-trained athletes may have resting heart rates between 40 and 60 bpm due to greater cardiovascular efficiency... during brisk walking, heart rates commonly range between 90 and 130 bpm, depending on age and fitness level... monitoring heart rate regularly can help individuals exercise safely, track improvements in fitness, manage weight, and maintain good heart health... for those with conditions such as coronary artery disease, diabetes, or hypertension, heart rate monitoring is especially useful for ensuring that exercise remains within a safe and effective range prescribed by their healthcare provider...

Royale Songket Restaurant

initially, we planned to enjoy the Dim Sum Buffet at Tung Yuen Chinese Restaurant, Mardhiyyah Hotel Shah Alam, as the restaurant is halal-certified and was offering a promotional rate of RM69 nett per person... coincidentally, I was informed that two of my former students, Ibrahim and Rizal, are currently working there... I reached out to them and asked if they could help make a reservation for us... unfortunately, the restaurant was fully booked, and there were no available seats at all, even though there were only two of us...

however, what seemed like a disappointment turned into a pleasant surprise... Ibrahim kindly invited us to have hi-tea lunch at Royale Songket Restaurant, and to my amazement, he insisted that we did not need to pay for the meal... he graciously treated us in conjunction with my birthday yesterday... this is truly what we call a blessing that comes unexpectedly... I am sincerely grateful to both of them for their generosity and thoughtfulness...

Ibrahim was previously my student at TPC, while Rizal was from SDCC... both are currently under the Sime Darby Group, and it is evident that they have gained valuable experience and expertise in the food and beverage industry... their professionalism and hospitality were clearly reflected in the excellent service we received... the food at Royale Songket Restaurant was delicious and exceeded our expectations... the entire experience made for a memorable afternoon... perhaps one day in the future, I will return and finally get the opportunity to try the famous Dim Sum Buffet as well... thank you once again, Ibrahim and Rizal, for making the day so special and memorable...
