woah...really so hard to get in? (( no wonder nowadays when someone mentioned tht he/she is an employee of schlumberger, evrryone's mouth goes wide open, if the perosn happens to hold a high post position or is a Head Of department in Schlumberger/Shell/ Exxon Mobil or any hard like hell to get in kind of company...evryone faints .X_X

Yup, even Shell has its gruelling interveiws which will leave many excellent students also dumbstrucked...hmm, i guess to get a job at these companies is sometimes like betting on a lottery, no 100 % guarantees although you may have perfect cgpa, top varisty coco award, or whatever top award u can think of and u had achieved, luck plays tht 1 % vital important part of it.=)

Hi guys, im interested in pursuing petroleum engineering...but it seems very very few unis in malaysia are offering this course since its very rare compared to other "hot cakes" courses like mechanical/ chemical eng courses...does any seniors knw of any good unis in msia offering this course?

Oh thanks for the advice.=) any idea if UTP would be a good choice? thought of going for their petroleum engineering course...and bro may i ask if u dun mind, how do jobs revolving this PE/OnG industry goes about ? i mean...do most of the big players eg EXXon, SLB, SHELL recruit new peeps/management peeps thru job fairs in uni and thru internal connections..because i think if we were to browse thru classifieds daily just to look for any openings, its kinda impossible nowadays, hard to find unless on a very rare occasion.
