Dear, Sir

RE: CHQ-0489480
I am sending my resume in application for the position of HR Generalist at IBM Romania, as advertised on the IBMs website.
 I am a self-motivated, efficient and diplomatic human resourcer with two years of volunteer experience in the industry and I believe my strengths and skills make me a perfect fit for this position.
In my currently working on my bachelors degree in Sociology and I have worked in AIESEC, a student run organization for a year. Where I have experience as a Project Manager Incoming Exchange Non-corporate and Vice President for Incoming Exchange Non-corporate. One huge part of the job was my commitment to staff relations by taking the time to listen to complaints and deal with issues, resulting in a 80 per cent reduction in personal leave in my department. I was also working with requirement of new qualified members. I am highly conceptualized, having maintained efficiency and even accepted an extra half workload on top of my own duties.
Earlier this year I coordinated an evaluation of personnel management practices and reviewed all job descriptions against actual work being done. This resulted in employees reacting favorably to having their voices heard, and to HR offering a more supportive workplace.
I received many high distinctions in my studies in sociology since it gives me a new perspective on how to look at other people and the society we are living in, and combined with AIESEC it has given me Workplace Training. I developed a greater understanding of how Human Resource departments works, developed outstanding interpersonal and communicational skills and made me more structured and organized to reach my goals. 
I would like the opportunity to meet and discuss how I can contribute to the productivity and effectiveness of your business. Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to hearing from you.
Yours sincerely

Sumea Mujnovic


Feel free to tell me if I should have done something differently!

Blogg #2: What can I say or do to get her to stop?!

Interpersonal conflicts means disagreement between two or more people on a topic. It is something that occurs in every part of your life: at work, between friends and family. My story is something that didn't happen long time ago and and is still a difficult part of my life. It is based on a interpersonal conflict between me and my best friend.


She was looking at me, but seeing through me. Her eyes were all red and full of tears. Andrea was a stranger to me. She wasn’t the same person; she wasn’t my best friend anymore. 

I remember when we first met, ten years ago. From that moment onwards, we did everything together. We were like twins. Everything was perfect until six months ago,  when she started dating Ted. He was the bad boy that did everything he wasn’t supposed to do, even drugs. He got her addicted and she thought everything was perfect, and she still does. She now lives in her own little world. She doesn’t talk to her family or friends anymore, not even to me, her best friend. We used to stick together, during good and bad times. Nothing could split us apart…. except drugs. We became strangers. I don’t know how to approach her. It is simply impossible to enlighten her since she won't listen to me. It is killing me from inside. She was a role model for me: she was brilliant, did sports and was loved by everyone. In short, she had everything that guarantees a prominent future. Unfortunately, this world does not  exist  anymore. She has forgotten everything she had, even our friendship, our plans, everything. 

Two months ago I caught here stealing from me, and she keeps missing every appointment we make. I have tried to confront her but she won't listen to me, she does not believe in what I say. When I tell her he is not good for her, she freaks out. All this frustrates me. The situation is hopeless. I can’t trust her any more.

A couple of days before I came to Singapore, I was supposed to meet her.. Guess what?…. She didn’t show up. I was so mad. It was the last freaking drop, so I went to her place and found her in her bed. 

She looked at me, but saw through me….
