share the 2nd interview for DGJS

Rick18li

hope someone can share ....

Rick18li

Thanks a lot for sharing

Rick18li

I think they will mark separately and see who score the highest mark

Rick18li

It seems not a complicated interview but how can they judge through such a simple process..

Rick18li

just to share the experience.
1. Registration upon arrival
2. Wait for calling to interview
3. 2 girls in a group
4. Mrs Dai will come out and pick up the kids
5. Kids in rm will play a "lucky draw" the one who pick a "Tick" sign can choose to chat with Mrs Dai first or read the book first
6. 4 questioins in chinese
     - Name
     - Which school is studying
     - Home address
     - Description on a pic
7.  Go to read the story book and the other girl do the same thing
8. Kids are both interviewed by Mrs Dai, and the other lady just stay in the rm (I guess the other lady also doing the interview by observing the kid when studying.
8. Mrs Dai take both kids out
9. You may use the 20-30 seconds to say "Hi" and "bye" to Mrs Dai.. But I do feel Mrs Dai also using this short time to observe the kid's parents
10. The number of girls to be interview, I guess around 336 if only 7days (nov 2,3,5,6,9,10,12) because
       2 girls in a group for a 15mins interview
       8 girls per hour, and I see their morning schedule is until 12:30 (starting from 8:30). I guess they will use 6 hour per day for interview and so the total girl per day will be 48 and 7 days means 336 max. and so the ratio will be around 1:3.
That's what I can share and hope others can also be more open minded and share their experience.
I may say there will be no harm to each single kid because the pic are different for each pair (a staff get an enclosed pic before she lead you to the interview).
Besides, my personal feeling is Mrs Dai is quite fair, especially for this year's interview because she is not the only person for the selection. I think she does not have to play games (just seems to be fair) because if she want, she can go back to the previous interview mode and make the decision by herself. She absolutely has such authority.
Anyhow, good luck to all potential DGJS parents though nobody knows who will be the one..

Rick18li

You too..add oil la hope can see you all outside DGJS one day

Rick18li

The story books are both English and Chinese and it's upto your kids to choose. I think it's just for your kids to kill the time or the other lady just observe whether your kids like studying or not.. Coz I understand that DGJS likes girls reading books

Rick18li

haha.. May be Mrs Dai also visit this site and so improving the way and change the interview mode everyday..

Rick18li

To me, I think the performance itself is important, not big or small B

Rick18li

May be the game is to test the EQ of the kids

Rick18li

Personally, I think those who can enter the 2nd interview have no much differences. At least they passed the min. requirement. Therefore, applying our adult's world for interview, first sight will score more than 50% (sometimes upto 70%). The rest depends on the actual performance during the interview and the expectation of the interviewer. If there is not much differences, this candidate is almost on the list. Therefore, I would say to prepare the kids and yourself to give Mrs Dai a good first sight is quite important. I dont mean you have to show off yourself because for Mrs Dai, I think she know this much more than us. Just ample dressing and dont do anythings that make her feel you are "acting" for the interview would be important. But that's just what I think only.

Rick18li

What was the time for your kid this morning. I had the interview in this morning too but there were two ladies in the rm

Rick18li

I think chance will be the same even your kid was not interviewed by Mrs Dai.

Rick18li

Just thinking of this year's arrangement seems quite different. Different time and different day seems have different mode of interview...God what will be the standard...Parents please share your experience

Rick18li

May be your kid is a confirmed case.. so no need to ask any further question..Congratulation

Rick18li

to my understanding the date are
Nov 2,3,5,6,9,10,12 total 7 days

Rick18li

But I saw the schedule sheet and it was 15 mins per session. So I think it will be around 336 only

Rick18li

My case is 15mins..coz the first interview seems delay for 15mins

Rick18li

I hope more parents can share their experience after the interview. It seems a bit different everyday.

Rick18li

I think it's really difficult to say at this moment and only Mrs Dai knows the answer. Put it other way round, may be those who do not interview by Mrs Dai mean she already accept this candidate and so no need to interview again...
So, I think until Dec 19, nobody knows the final result.
Hope can share the result by then, no matter successful or not..
