I did my apprenticeship from December 2006 until January 2007. There is a

fixed schedule that I have to follow while working in this company. The

apprenticeship schedule is from Monday to Friday, starting at 8 a.m. until 4 p.m. and

on Saturday, the schedule starts at 8 a.m. until 3 p.m. I have a one-hour break every

day from 12 to 1 p.m.

Day Time

Monday – Friday 08.00 – 12.00

12.00 – 13.00 ( Break )

13.00 – 16.00

Saturday 08.00 – 12.00

12.00 – 13.00 ( Break )

13.00 – 15.00

Everyday I have to fill in the attendance list and finish my daily tasks that are

given. One of my routine activities during the apprenticeship is to check the incoming

e-mails. The e-mail can be in the form of purchase orders or reply letters from

buyers. There are two kinds of buyers; those from Indonesia and from abroad. The

e-mails from foreigners are usually in English language; whereas, e-mails from

Indonesian companies are in Indonesian. I have to translate e-mails from the

companies abroad. If the e-mails are in Indonesian, I just give them to my manager.

To complete all the tasks, I use devices such as computer, internet, fax machine and

telephone.

I have used four English skills while working in this company. The first is

writing skill. I use this skill when I reply e-mails from foreigners. The second one is

reading skill. This skill is used when I receive e-mails from abroad and I have to

translate it. The last is both speaking and listening skills, which are used when I have

to negotiate with buyers via telephone. I also use those skills when the company had

a guest from the Philippines. During his visit, I became a business tour guide for the

guest.

After having done the apprenticeship programme, I realize there are some

English skills that become my strengths. I have good conversation skill and it is

proven when I have a conversation with buyers via telephone, and also when I

become a business tour guide for the guest from the Philippines. My translation skill

also helps me in doing my tasks that are mostly translating e-mails from foreigner

buyers. Unfortunately, I still have a weakness in doing my tasks. The weakness is

my grammatical skill; as I do many mistakes when making purchase orders.

After finishing my apprenticeship programme, I realize there are useful

English skills that I have learned in the Diploma-Three Programme for English that

become beneficial in carrying out my tasks. My knowledge in translation is used

when I translate e-mails; while speaking skill gained in Conversation classes is used

to negotiate with buyers. The last, writing skill, is used either when I make a

purchase order or reply an e-mail. Becoming a marketing staff during my

apprenticeship, I find many precious experiences. I become more punctual, because

in a real job, being on time is a must. It is a part of responsibility.

Upon the completion of my apprenticeship, I also have feedback for CV. Afta

Suryakencana that the company should provide a special department for new

workers which functions to train the new workers before they are put in real position.

The department will make all the new workers more confident to perform their job.

For the Diploma-Three Programme for English, keeping this apprenticeship program

as a primary subject is good, because this apprenticeship will give the students

valuable experiences in the business world.
