Blog Post #6 - Biodata

Updated 07 Nov 2008
I am final year undergraduate from National University of Singapore majoring in Mechanical Engineering. I like outdoor activities such as sport climbing, kayaking, windsurfing, etc.

I would like to work as an aircraft engineer in aviation industry because I like aircraft and flying. Besides, I like traveling because I like to experience myself in different cultures, different climates and different scenery from different places.

Academically, I have been doing well in engineering design and was awarded the best performance in engineering design module in Ngee Ann Polytechnic. I have involved in several design projects such as Automatic Bean Sprout Root Removal and Harvesting Machine, Vibrating Alarmed Pillow, Low Cost Pick and Place Arm and Microthruster for Unmanned Air Vehicle or Spacecraft.

Sometimes I find myself too wary to take in new ideas and hence it stops me from taking potential ideas that could enhance and improve the results. Therefore, I think I can improve myself by having even solid and complete information for a new idea in advance to minimize the possible risks that may occur afterward.

I feel you have try to "sell" yourself in a way which is just right. Not too boastful or something :) If i were the employer you would definitely be employed.

Anyway, I believed risks need to be taken to gain something. Probably you can work on this area.

The photo you posted is interesting, very different from you in class!

@ gwen: thank you.

haha, probably that moment i was too drunk or too "high" ^^

I would say too "high". XD

Also, I am in agreement with Gwen that one needs to "sell" oneself in the biodata, and that means a more positive interpretation on any "fault" you perceived yourself to have.

By the way, you forgot to add in you are a pilot. :)

Hey Jacky,

I'm sure the experience in China must have been an amazing one. Please tell us more about it someday!

I find that being identifying your own weaknesses and looking to improve yourself is really great, and certainly makes your biodata really honest.

Hey yo Jacky! Wah that crazy pic of yours doesn't seem like you at all! Haha... I didn't know you can be that hyper. From how I see and interacted with you, you seem like a pretty decent kind of guy. Haha you can join my club already.

Wah your ambition is to be a pilot?? I guess that's the dream job of most guys. I want to be an air stewardess too...Haha we can work together! Alrighty all the best in your future endeavours.

Thanks, Jacky, for this informative post. You certainly have a wide range of skills! Wow! Pilot even!

For a more professional biodata, I'd suggest cleaning up the grammar more (like capitalizing the pronoun I) and condensing some of this info into a shorter version.

I appreciate the effort!

I have changed and made it to shorter post. ^^
