Industrial training

To my dear Semester 8 students,
How's your INTRA? Enjoy? Or suffering from heavy work load? What do you feel? Your knowledge gained in UniKL-MFI sufficient for you to handle your daily work? Perhaps some of you are 'lepaking' doing nothing there, but I am sure some of you are being treated as their permanent staff and the management put high expectation on you guys. If you feel like you can't apply your knowledge in your daily work, don't worry! Learn from experience, ask your supervisor. The most important thing is your right attitude. After visiting 3 companies last week, the feedback from them was: they are looking for good attitude staff, and not the best result but bad attitude staff. So, you should know what to do now.
Another 3 weeks for you to complete your INTRA. Appreciate it! Then, compare it with your University life. Which one is better? If the company offers you for the job, just consider it whether suitable for you. Wish you guys very good luck out there!
Best regards.
