We all know the importance of nailing that job interview and impressing potential employers, but what happens when you come across a teenager who seems completely unaware of the gravity of professional communication? 

Well, a humble Thai food-stall owner Myra Suhaimi took to social media to share her unforgettable encounter with a job-seeking teen who had everyone in stitches.

It all started when Myra posted some well-intentioned advice for fresh post-SPM graduates or anyone on the hunt for a job. 

Little did she know that her post would ignite a fiery debate among netizens. What was the bone of contention, you ask? A teenager who clearly didn't grasp the art of impressing employers during a job application process.

In her social media post, Myra emphasized the importance of etiquette and proper language when facing potential employers, no matter the position. 

She even gave handy tips like preparing a concise resume (thank you, Google and Canva!), answering interview questions with full sentences, and using respectful titles like "tuan" or "puan" to address the interviewer. But boy, did this ignite a heated discussion!

While some netizens rallied behind the teenager, arguing that Myra should cut her some slack since she was only vying for a part-time gig, others weren't so forgiving. 

They claimed that even for a part-time job, it's crucial to display polished manners and communication skills. Manners should be the name of the game, whether you're a dishwasher or a CEO! 

Despite the overwhelming support she received, there were those who thought Myra should loosen up a bit and be more understanding, considering the teenager's young age and that she should just set up an interview with the girl instead of asking her any further questions on the text. 

They argued that Myra should view the girl's inquiry as an accomplishment in itself, as it takes courage for a teenager to take the first step towards employment.

Leading Myra to not hold back any longer she clapped back, asserting that the young job applicant was indeed too green to understand the intricacies of the professional world. 

She reminded everyone that even for part-time positions, it's essential to know a candidate's background and gauge their commitment to the job. After all, Myra wanted to build a team that would treat her business with respect.

As the debate rages on, one thing's for sure: Myra's encounter with the clueless teen applicant has given Malaysians a good laugh. The lesson here? 

Whether you're applying for a high-flying corporate job or a humble part-time gig, it never hurts to brush up on your interview skills and show some adab. Who knows, it might just be the key to unlocking that dream job!
