My first month with KTP - Teoh Si Jie

My first month with KTP - Teoh Si Jie

Hi, my name is Teoh Si Jie and I already work with KTP for 1 month. Sit back and listen to me how I enjoy my daily life with this big family.

The first day of KTP

On the first day I came to the firm, I was guided by HR (Ke Wei) and started to do orientation. I remember clearly that that day a lot of people were running down stairs and standing in a row in the corridor, and I was curious about what they were doing, but I just continued to sit in my place and did not bother about it.

Suddenly, I was called to stand with them, and I wondered why I needed to stand with them after lunch, until I realized it was because Mr. Koh Teck Peng wanted to meet with all of us to brief some issue, and I was called out by Mr. Koh Teck Peng to give an introduction. This is how I met all of my colleagues.

I know that some companies have a "tall wall relationship" with their colleagues, meaning that they will divide themselves into a few groups and they will always be in the same group and not join others.

But here is different.

Everyone will always invite others, no matter if you are an intern or senior. They usually eat together, and all of them are very friendly, so you won’t feel unwelcome to this family.

What I thought about Mr. Koh Teck Peng

Before I joined this company, I saw Mr. Koh Teck Peng talk about ACCA on YouTube. So, in my head, I recognise this person, but when I saw him stand in front of me and speak, I was taken aback and felt very differently.

After some emergency meetings with Mr. Koh Teck Peng, I realised that he is actually a very GOOD principal compared to other audit firms.

I can say that no other audit firm partner will be like Mr. Koh Teck Pengwho appreciates his workers and shares some experience that you can only understand if you are in the top management for some time.

Fun activity

After a few days in the firm, I was informed that Mr. Koh had organised a hiking trip, and I was shocked that why we needed to go for hiking, especially at night.

My other colleague told me this is very common and that normally there is one activity per month at least. I was speechless, but I still attended the hiking trip.

Although the hiking was not very good (because I was not very good at it), we still celebrated and eating together was quite a special memory for me.

I can say that not many firms will be like us that have this kind of opportunity to have a "family gathering".

The closing of one month experience

Despite the fact that one month has passed and I am still unfamiliar with everyone in this firm, I am still having a good time here. Every day is a new day for me and having the chance to learn new things and meet new people is a fun experience.

I am looking forward to my journey with KTP.

Stay tuned for the upcoming webinar with newcomers including SJTeoh.
