I guess they really love musicians. but sadly, it is not practical to bring musical instruments together to offshore. hahhaaha.. speaking of my experience.

wahaha. u tried bringing? crazehh.

Im going to smuggle one of my ukulele.. yeah.. sorry off topic a bit..

since most likely w be bringing laptop might carry a mini synth w me. my prev job i traveled w my macbook + korg.

anyways, ive yet to go offshore. what do u guys pack for offshore? lets say for 4 weeks

Hmm.. sufficient toiletries, PPEs, laptop with a lot of movies and games (gamepad for multiplayer) it'd be fun, medicine if applicable, I Talk card if you need to use public phone (contractor), not too many clothes because you can send them to laundry 2 times a day.

mana ada chan...ps3 dah beribu batu jauh dr lokasi aku sekarang kehkeh...missing it lol.but at the same time every working day is an adventure.

coming to work every morning to be greeted by a semi-sub parked here hehe.


agreed with both of you.i also been milling around for 4++ months before getting an oppurtunity posted right here.tried my luck and got the interview and then the job.

Yeah, spawn89 covered most of the stuffs. Just pack light because you can send your clothes to laundry. But make sure not to bring your good shirts, pants and boxers coz the washing machine at offshore is pretty "hardcore". Don't forget selipar jepun and shorts.

BTW, a few new platforms got gym, and got music instruments like guitars. So no need to "smuggle" ukulele lah. Hahaha.

i got interview from sbm. anyone can tell me bout sbm? like benefit, working environment and etc..
Thanks

get yourself to sbm website; got all the info bout the company. nuff said.

I think what he is asking is just some info from those who have worked in sbm. I dont think websites give a clear picture of working environment (every company would like to say they have a conducive working environment). Websites wont give much info on benefits/pay too

i know the company information. I just want to know the working environment/benefit before i jump to it.

Did the HR call or email you to arrange for an interview? I emailed them, but they have yet to reply. Huhu.

call then follow up by email

agree and i personally think that some of the forumers@so called otai here blindly assumed everyone wants to be spoonfed. this thread has become a place to brag about their experience and shut down new comers.

Guys i saw this on my fb 2day... Not sure how genuine is this but I'll post it here....
If any1 wants to take advantage pls do so
The deadline seems very close but wth rite...give it a try... good luck

Yo guys, I just got called for an interview from the Nov fgs sdn. Bhd. (national oilwell varco) for a piping engineer trainee for 6months contract.. anyone of u heard of this company n working with them? wonder how much do they pay for a trainee, n not sure I could survive with the pay... Still do know whether I should go for it? Hope to get some advice from any big bro big sis

Nov fgs formerly known as Ameron Malaysia sdn bhd in senai, last time my friend worked there they paid rm2300, it was 2008, and he worked there for 2 years before cabut. Its a good place to start

so they would pay 2.3k for a trainee??

not sure it was 2008 when my friend joined them

does anyone knows about DF Engineering?
