Assalamualaikum
Kali ni bukan mama yang nak bercerita tapi anak mama. Haha. Nak harap mama je contribute kat blog ni, memang setahun baru dua entry je dapat -.- So, ended up anak mama pon nak menyibuk.
Back to topic asal, ATCO aka Air Traffic Controller. Basically, dekat Malaysia, super susah nak dengar anyone working as ATC. I've been 'GOOGLING' for ages information related to ATC tapi payah kemain nak jumpa. Or maybe, I am not good enough to play with Google. Once I heard about this position, things that came in my mind, sounds interesting tapi.....FIZIK! Apakah? Time secondary school, the worst subject ever is Physics and I can't stuck in Physics for the whole life. The story all started when......
I don't remember when was the last time I'm updating my SPA application and suddenly I received an SPA invitation for ATCO aka Pegawai Kawalan Trafik Udara. It may sounds gempak and me, myself was a bit reluctant to give it a try. But yeah, as a good daughter, I gave it a try and unexpectedly, I succeed. I wasn't doing any better for this, I mean, I don't give an effort at all. Tapi, bak kata orang, kalau memang rezeki anda takkan ke mana.
Public yang interested to join government and become part of civil servant are welcome to apply the job through
SPA portal. Sila jangan malu-malu dan segan-segan. I thought everyone was aware with the existence of this portal and yes, I am wrong. Time kerja dengan private sector dulu, still ada orang yang tak sedar dengan SPA. Either SPA yang kurang promosi or public yang kurang awareness to this. Okay. Kembali ke topic asal. Once anda-anda semua sudah fill up online application, what to do next? Haruslah submit application and wait for the call. Okay. Sekarang SPA sangat efektif since they will text the applicant (this only work if you provide your mobile number in the application) and saying "Congrats! Anda telah dipanggil untuk menghadiri peperiksaan bertulis untuk berkhidmat dalam perkhidmatan awam". Pardon me if what you get wasn't similar with the one right here sebab sudah ingat-ingat lupa. Bahaha. Whatever it is, anda boleh check result kat portal SPA.
Untuk Peperiksaan Bertulis ATCO, things that you should know is anything related to aviation. General knowledge and simple mathematical problems haruslah di genggaman tangan anda sebab nak jadi public servant, anda kena tahu general knowledge mengenai Malaysia. Itu takpe lagi. Ada tiga set paper untuk dijawab if I'm not mistaken. Bahagian A untuk pengetahuan am, Bahagian B mathematic problem and IQ question and finally Bahagian C untuk soalan-soalan pemahaman English dan BM. Anda harus menjawab setiap bahagian within the time given. But, no worries. You're not going to answer all these 3 section all in one shot. Mereka tidaklah sekejam mana.
Every section ada break at least for 30min to an hour untuk anda semua lunch, pray dan melunaskan apa-apa yang patut. Scientific calculator is prohibited dan anda harus mencongak dengan super laju bila menghadap Bahagian B. Memang berpeluh-peluh-tak-senang-duduk-nak-mengira-tapi-jawapan-tak-dapat-dapat. HAHAHA.Memang gila okay. Bukan apa, mostly yang attend exam ini dari bermacam peringkat umur and some of them, sudah lama tinggalkan zaman sekolah. Memang time ni gelabah tak pandang kiri kanan. Dan macam biasa, akan ada orang yang submit awal or main-main pen or tidur. Jangan tertipu! Sila psiko kan otak anda yang mereka begitu kerana takde idea dah. *Positif.Positif* At least seat for ATC's exam, tak payah nak buat essay. Kalau tak, time ni lah kerut-kerut nak ingat idioms time SPM dulu.
My only advice, don't spend too much time on each question as the time is running fast. Masa sangat mencemburui anda okay! And, for your info, pengawas SPA sangat punctual when it comes to kutip your paper and no extra time provided. Maka, dari buat muka kesian baik cepat-cepat bulatkan aje jawapan. If you were really into the job, please please please study before you attend the exam. Chances are limited and it's not easy to go through the whole process and be part of it. Nasib anda baik, sebulan anda apply sudah dipanggil. Nasib anda buruk, berzaman la baru dipanggil. Please put an effort into this if you eagerly want the job. THERE ARE THOUSANDS APPLYING FOR THE POSITION AND ONLY SEVERAL WILL PASS THROUGH THE NEXT STAGE. The competition sangat stiff and muka-muka yang datang semua penuh semangat la kononnya :P
Things you might want to know before attend exam:
- Sila baca pasal airport Malaysia. To make it easier, please take a note on Malaysia's airport history.
- Please make sure anda tahu pasal aircraft aka airplane aka apa-apa sewaktu dengannya.
- Please be alert with any current issues, be it in Malaysia or any neighboring countries.
- Sila asah skill mencongak anda supaya anda tidak terkejut dengan angka :)
- Please make yourself knowledgeable with Malaysia's general knowledge.
PART II will be continued soon. In Shaa Allah.
بِاسْمِكَ اللّهُمَّ أَحْيَاوَأَمُوتُ
Dengan nama-Mu Ya Allah, aku hidup dan mati
