In the middle of the BEM FEB Unair period, the Juang Cabinet spread its wings by opening recruitment for 2017 and 2018 students who wanted to join until the end of the 2018 period. Sobat BEM or SOBEM is a process forum that is quite popular with every new student this year. The main reason SOBEM was chosen is that BEM FEB has more varied departments and bureaus such as civil service, community service, etc. so that students have more freedom to choose according to their individual interests. Apart from that, it not only trains soft skills, but also continuously increases relationships at the faculty level. It can be seen that students' desire to contribute is quite high, reaching 130 registrants. The number of sobem applicants continues to increase from year to year, therefore the number of admissions has also been increased to 43 new staff. In implementing the selection, SOBEM has 2 stages, namely a psychological test and an interview which was carried out on 27-30 August 2018.
SOBEM applicants can choose the departments they are interested in, such as the Admin Bureau, Finance Bureau, Public Affairs, Arts and Sports, Business, External Relations, community service, Medkominfo Bureau, PSDM, Kastrat and Science. The Departments and Bureaus in the Juang Cabinet have opened their doors wide to assist with soft skills in the organization.
During the event, namely the psychological test which was carried out in the Soepoyo Hall, many registrants showed up on time and looked very enthusiastic about doing it. Due to the great enthusiasm, the interview selection stage was divided into 2 days and was held in the Tower Hall. Applicants can directly meet members of the BEM FEB UNAIR 2018 Juang Cabinet and carry out interviews with extraordinary enthusiasm.
After the selection stage was completed, the selected applicants were warmly welcomed at the welcoming party on 7 September 2018. The series of events was made more relaxed so that the atmosphere was more fluid and enjoyable. The department gathering at the end of the event also increases the familiarity between applicants and the selected department. The hope is that by holding this event, the level of kinship will be higher so that the implementation of contributions will be more comfortable for the next half period. Apart from that, it is hoped that the contribution, soft skills and communication training can be applied in everyday life to improve the quality of FEB UNAIR students.
