hi mhyug,

If u wanna join shipyard, y not consider shipyard in SG? shipyard industry in SG are reigned by mostly malaysians, definitely u can secure a job there, plus u get 2.5x in currency and high bonus (some say 10 months) also... just wanna give another better options.

google keppel offshore & marine, sembcorp.com. good luck.

It's OnG, manpower supply way over the demand, they can be very cocky......yet rewarding until u wont get out of this community....

Prepare softcopy and scanned relevant document and send to all companie u want. Then, Pick several companies u have deep interest in and send in hard copy. Remember call them one by one asking them whether u received ur hardcopy or not. Just my 2 cents.......

I observed those so called T.A post offered to Grad eng only happen in local OnG service contractors, last time they called me and offered me verbally T.A post and they said will process the application A.S.A.P, then month aft month waiting, i called them again they said the (client side)has frozen the hiring due to contract expiry SOON, the manager itself reccommend me to go ahead if others offers come to you dun wait for them, now i had a trauma with those local OnG service contractors. I encounter this situation TWICE with 2 diff companies....

dear sifus, have u come across RS & L MARINE SDN BHD? i have interview for trainee position this friday. I've been told there's 3 hours interview process, anyone can enlighten me about the interview process?

The Effective , yet tiring ways is to knock every doors of OnG companies in miri + Labuan....

Well That's a lot of doors for u to knock in KL....

Those companies in miri, labuan, their hiring decisions is decided by KL HQ....and they only want the experienced candidates (3-5 working exp), that's y ppl like me (1 working exp) has to be cast out from their equation.

i think u're in marine and offshore industry dy( there's bigger player in miri like Shin Yang Shipyard ,Dayang) not OnG.....anyway, let's hope it good for sth..

erm....diff discipline, i cant say anything about that. let other seniors advice u on this....

Competency Based Questions:
Think of a situation and describe you're in difficult situation? how you handle it?What have you learn? (Building rapport)
Think of a problem you faced and how you solve it? What have you learn? (capability)
Think of a situation when you involved in group activities and how you lead them like project handling/Extra- cocurricular activities? (leadership)

Case Studies:
offered a few topic, choose one, ask you to comment about the topic. talk about 30 mins. They are more interested on they way you Think - Capability


Just my 2 cents, Cheers....

Mine was Phone ->SRD, sponsor me air tic to KL, 5 star hotel, sadly and I failed at the last stage. But i met a lot of interesting, professional ppl there.

Maybe because technip is opening a new branch in miri???

actually Petronas did offer scholarship/LOAN to SPM holder with extremely good results to study foundations in UTP. but if u got category one permit ( money), u can study at other foreign uni like nottingham, Herriot Watt Uni which may polish up ur resume. Which uni u come from with first class is only able to secure u an interview, the rest u need other FACTORS such as NETWORKING, PERSONALITY, to be able to secure u a job in OnG. Personal Experience. NETWORKING is freaking important in a small OnG community. Ppl used to know each others.

dude, u need to work it out (networking)urself instead of asking for advice here.

hi， nic88

Why dont you define YOUR preference towards these OPTIONS ?

I agree with endau02, bad students and good students are everywhere, regardless which uni (local/overseas/private/public),race, at the end of the day,it all depends on individual 's attitude towards job, how eager u wanna change urself in order to survive in workplace, how eager u wanna change in order for u to become high performer. Please do not stereotype. I've seen bad arses + smart arses from all kinds of uni (local/overseas/private/public) plus regardless race also.

yea , i'm interested, post it up please.

oh yea, i do have some links of LNG and the World of Energy Slides Presentation (files' huge), if you guys interested, PM me.
