I wanna bring my survival skills to test. I spotted this position, a teaching post in Ho Chi Minh City. I have sent my resume and hopefully they will be replying me to arrange for an interview. I have not been to Vietnam before, and my traveling experiences are “private limited”. But reading online helps to give me a clearer picture of Vietnam. Anyway, a lot of things will have to be on the job training and adaptation will only be able to judge when I am there. Practical is always better than theoretical theory.
The cool seasons are likely to be in Nov to Jan. Warm season in Feb to May, June to Oct probably will be the monsoon season, occasional typhoon in the rainy season to be expected. Common language would be their Vietnam (their official language), English, Mandarin and French.
The opening is for a 2 years bond. Is that a long period away from Singapore? Well, it’s just maybe spending two Christmas there and I will be back. LOL! That was what I think. I dun know if I will be given this opportunity. But if I have not sent out my resume to them, I will never know. Even if the terms and conditions and benefits offered are not ideal, at least I asked and tried. So yes! Looking forward to hearing from them.
Uncertainty is no doubt about it. Home sick there is no doubt about it. But regardless, it will be a lifetime experience. It’s just getting used to it. Nothing is easy at the start of everything new. Hope for the best but always prepare for the worst!
So, I hope and I pray! They will contact me today!!!
