You graduated as in what course?

Normally, it would be the simple ones. Power theories, measurements, simple maths.

From what I had with SLB back then, types of filters i.e. LPF, HPF. And simple calculations, i.e. parallel resistance and whatnot.

Maybe for LWD-MWD, you need to know a bit on the mechanical side?

Ahhh .. crap .. I'm not accepted? cry.gif Even though it was from diff email address? I am having my fingers crossed that it is not.

what standards are their answers?

the questions were :

1) which country are you authorized to work in?
2) you're on a job. it requires your full attention. your colleague is in need of help. you knew the ways to improve his work. what would you do? pros and cons?
3) offshore, onshore and office. which work place you prefer the most and the least? why?
4) same as question 1.

Wow! 2 years ago?? What did you do for the last 2 years? What were you working as? All i know about the exam is that it is technical based. N related to general engineering. No clue what to prepare or expect. Just read as much as you can I guess. All the best. I haven't got any email stating whether or not I am rejected... Does it mean i am rejected? Coz some ppl got rejection email. I don't...

Btw r you applying to field engineer 2009/1010? University engineer?

R u authorised to work in Australia? Meaning do you have working visa or PR or citizenship there? If not, they will straightaway eliminate you. Baker Hughes doesnt sponsor employees as far as I know. You can apply for residence visa first then reapply again. But Australian visa is getting harder to get these days. Better luck in Canada or NZ.

Which position did you apply? I guess it really depends on the position you applied. U may or may not qualify. But just try it anyway. U still at phone interview stage? I wonder when they gonna end this phone interview and move to next stage... Is it malaysian division faster than indonesian??

BH is one of the top players in o&g services. No clue as to how the comparison goes...

If that's the case, that might be the reason why I am rejected. But then again, what about those posts in the US/UK which some of these guys are getting?

They may be from different companies, not BH. However, if you do have experience over 10 or 15 years n if the company is looking for placement urgently, it is possible for them to sponsor. As far as I know, BH doesnt offer any type of sponsor. With a few exception for important position with extremely small candidate pool under some unique circumstances n time constraint.

I suggest u to apply for working visa in Australia. Check their immi website. If I am not mistaken, you can apply for residence visa if you r working for more than 1 year in your occupation. Better if you have couple more years. But it is also depending on your occupancy, whether or not it is on job demand...

Without any visa, it is nearly impossible to get employed in overseas countries. Unless you got the skill and experience to say otherwise.
