Hi guys,
I am asked to go for an interview in Kencana headquarter.
I am wondering what will they ask, and also how is the company?
Kencana Hl is in Lumut. Anyone work there or heard any feedback on them?
What is the basic salary for a fresh graduate in Mechanical Engineering Degree.
Thanks

I used to work for Kencana's account. My old company supplied them with the crappy ERP system the whole Kencana Group is on. The ERP software though, is stupidly buggy. So if any part of your work includes inputting anything into the ERP system, your life would be hell.

On the other hand, I did visit Kencana's HQ at Solaris Dutamas. Nice place to work in and shit in the toilet.
