1.check!
2.err..not sure.
3.check!

U even have the chance to choose?U sure? And all big companies? Nice. My advice is opt for small companies and learn more. During my internship in Miri I received hysys training everyday for abt 3-4 months. Small company, small allowance BUT u get to learn something. And the training I received help a lot during my final year as plant design required hysys skill so I have no regret. And I believe many O&G companies seeking people with that kind of skill too.

I'm not officially in the field but yeah, counting you in!

I am sooo sorry..Yesterday in JB now in KL,going to to Kch tmrw and Miri after that for interviews. Been travelling here and there suddenly got called for interview makes my plan a little mess, despite replying in this forum (can't resist not to reply) I'm a bit busy actually. Will send you my resume but pls don't put any high expectation.. Despite getting called by slb n baker my grade is not that good. And pls do comment on me (cover letter, resume) so I can improve.

Observing from this forum, I think O&G people are cool to hangout with!

Added on September 12, 2011, 4:47 pmHi there. As for now I have not yet received any interviews invitation through any personal connection. Having connection is way easier but doesn't mean you have to rely on them all the time. Keep trying! Might use my connection for final solution if I failed these coming interviews though. haha. Have to. Can't stay spending money without any income. Later kena halau dari rumah.

@hitsugaya Yep. Chemical-gas engineering, UTM. UMS, are you from KML?

@noyze thanks a lot for helping us here. :)

@positive energy convo coming in 2 weeks! Skb? Can't recall anyone I really know from skb. I heard one of u got into haliburton months back. ;)

@hitsugaya those big companies came to utm each year fr recruitment. But I never hv d chance since they want a 3.50 and above. I've applied for so many companies I can't list them here. A lot. Fr slb u hv to register first n then use the job search.

All the best to u too. With the website,yes you can still try.or else how did I get the invitation fr tomorrow's interview? just during the recruitment in utm its a very stiff competition among us I dont dare to try. Hehe. But there's few big companies who are very strict though. Like Exxon, they put 3.50 as their requirement.

Btw, its not FKKKSA anymore. Petroleum n gas combined into one new fac, FPREE. while new intakes for bioprocess, polymer won't be available starting this sem.

Skg; chemical-gas. Skb, chem-bioprocess. My results is still above 3. A little. Haha.

Just arrived in kch. If you're here,jom!

Come fetch me at the airport tmrw. hahaha. Done with 1st stage interview today. The recruiter is very nice.

Really? Haha. Cab driver in miri is rich.tambang pegi morsjaya pun dah 20. Maka 5 mnit jak.

yep slb. 1st stage is background checking only. I think I'm doing fine.. Its for FE position.

Not office. It was held in merdeka palace. I am sarawakian so thats why I think they do it in kch.

Ala..chill la..we dont know yet. I havent got the job yet. We are in the same boat. Two more stages for slb, and two more interviews next week. RNZ on monday and SGS on tuesday. Any advice on these companies guys?


Update: just landed in miri!

Haha.Not back for holiday, I'm back from holiday.

@positive energy, pls update me yr situation, didn't u get an email,calls n sms frm slb abt the venue? Did u make it there?

Miri office.. u got a friend there,why didn't u try to apply?

If fresh grad is not favoured then who is going to replace the seniors? Until when? If we we're not given the chance and get trained, how could we get into this industry? If I don't start my career in o&g now, then when should I? After 5 years gaining experience in other field? How can we become experienced when no chances given at the first place?

I was asked the same question and I thought legal right to work means you own a working permit/visa so I said no I dont have any.

Which means, i shouldn't have taken a degree in anything related to o&g at the first place. Zzz....

I'm not shortlisted. Guess I'm not that good. Hmmhh

Kuala baram ka sis? I even apply fr technician position. That's how desperate I am. I just want to work so bad.

Yea I think I know..I'm a woman btw, just balas balik the bro thing. haha
So I've done my interview with rnz just now, for freakin 2 hrs ++. I did my internship with their rival, how irony..haha



@azraeil now u make me eager to ask for their help. I'm just afraid that in the future people would say I got the job because someone helped me in, not because of my own ability. Those who supported my financial (not parents) during my studies already started to ungkit2, I don't want the same thing happened when I got the job with their help..... .
It's ok with friends though, I already sent my resume to a few friends..

Yea...betul jugak kan.maybe i should just pretend i didnt heard them mengungkit n just do my job.

And yes,i think it's asking fr helps. They're my uncles n to just chatting, it's like beating around the bush, he knows it is abt helping me to get in...

why ungkit2?you know these kind of ppl who like to show their so called good deeds n telling everyone abt it. Statement like "she is there because of me, if I'm not helping her she would never get the job" that is.....painful............

Btw seniors, need your advice here. Which one have better career prospect, flow assurance engineer or process engineer?

I'd smile and do this face. hahaha. maybe i should just stop being too sensitive kan.


I am currently in a company producing 0 barrels oil per day. Care to help?

Simple thing like this, I've done it few months ago. You're being sarcastic.

And still, no one is answering my previous question. Flow assurance engineer vs process engineer, which one hv better career prospect? I am not sure what a flow assurance engineer will do, is it a site work,or lab work?

Thanks mr ch_teo.. no one is owning anything to me, just feel ignored that the seniors were just trying to prove who is in the biggest company n all but no one cares to answer little midget like me.what I feel is more to unwanted actually. I've been waiting, checking and refreshing this site since last night. Sorry.....

Dear Mr ch_teo,do you think is it the same job as below?
