Job Title: Application Engineer
Age: 23
Employment Level: Fresh (sort of...)
Experience before joining: 0
Company/Industry: Local/Cooling Services
Education: Bach. Chemical Engineering
Salary: Basic RM2,300 + RM250 car allowance if u have a car (but I don't =P)
Benefits: Medical, mileage, petrol reimbursement, lots of outstation traveling.
Working hours: 8.30am-5.00pm (half-day on 2nd, 3rd and 5th Saturdays)

I actually just switched jobs from a really hopeless department in my previous company. Despite not being an MNC but rather a steady SME, the people here are friendly and outgoing, ever-willing to teach and guide you, and always getting you to tag along with them on business trips.

IT Engineers (intermediate) in US get USD10K/month, so it's 120K/year, but the taxes and accommodation are expensive..

if we malaysian get the same paid as the american, then why american open branch here ...

lower "cost"
like most of the big companies open at china

okay, im sorry for being way out of topic, but this seems to be the place where all the "sifus" hang out. so here goes. will it be wise to study for 8 years to become an architect, or 4 years to become an accountant? which do you guys think is the better option? (im sorry cant seem to find an accounting thread)

You do not even have a firm decision on what you would want to be. Decide what you really want to do, no one here is qualified to suggest.

nope bro....

Seismic survey...

Are you in OnG as well....

So you're working onboard of the seismic vessel huh,...easiiii money...

i'm also in OnG but with drilling contractor..not drawing much allowance as you...

no doubt.....i say the easiest job in OnG industry....

moneywise...was good...since recession hits world it wasn't anymore....

yup mate..easy..easy...one of my friend was a Positioning Eng onboard of the vessel...got big money plus free tax...
always travelling...huhuhu...

But he was laid off during the recession time...enjoying the compensation money and now working with another positioning company and also based oversea...
