Therefore, I’m working in Switch@QueensBay Mall. Apart from working with Switch, I am also having my Accounting Course at TARC College.
Q: When did you join Switch, and what made you join?
M: I started by job with Switch in end of July 2009. Before joining Switch, I actually bought an iPod from them and I saw a lot of Apple’s products! They are all so amazing and then I decided to join Switch to expand my knowledge in all those wonderful Apple products.
Q: Please describe your typical day at work.
M: Majority of my working shifts will be from the afternoon until closing, it was because that I have to attend to my classes in the morning. Whenever when I arrive in the outlet, the first thing I will do was to check on my customer’s collection. Making sure my customers have collected their items which they have ordered is part of my main responsibility as a crew in Switch.
Q: What is your favourite part of working at Switch?
M: My favourite part of working with Switch is that I can see customers walking out of the outlet with a Smile and watching them turning into a Switcher one day. Another favourite part working in Switch was the happiness in working together with my helpful and friendly colleagues. It is an enjoyment working with the team.
Q: Can you share with us the most important thing that you’ve learned from working at Switch?
M: Besides all the Apple knowledge that Switch have provided me, I’ve also learned how to control my own emotion, regardless of the situation that I am facing. Staying calm and observe is the key word I always remind myself.
Q: What advice would you give to other Switchers (your colleagues) at work?
M: Love and passion on everything we do, sharing knowledge among the crews. Together, we can bring Switch to a new higher level!
