i am picking up my offer letter today after 6pm, ahahahahahaha, after fiasco i put up at SRD, never thought they rolling me in, lol....so anyone working in SITI? Mind sharing the experience?

4 advise:

Be confident in anything you do / say in there, remember, there are no wrong or right answer.

Body language is very important, when i got my SRD results, they told me about me sitting like a slouch almost turn me off from enrollment.

Dont be closed mind, everything and i do mean everything, any articles, memos or statements they give to analyze even they seems to be in different issues whatsover can be related to one another.

Show them that you can lead, so them you can be a boss, show them you have what it takes to give example to others. It is ok to ask questions back to them. I did that almost all the time. Heck during the 1st interview, due to some trickiry, they were the one answering the questions im suppose to answer. hahahahaha. Manupulation is the key.

I can say my experiences during SRD, it is something you must feel it yourself, it is fun, it is something to build up your character.

there are no specific topics, period, it could be environment, it could be IT, it could be culture but it will never be related to oild productions unless that SRD session is target for shell oil productions

i will be based at Shell IT, Cyberjaya but with integration program they are doing, hopefully i get to travel around the world, hehehehe, dream on.

You will know your scores about say 2-3 days after the SRD, they will tell you whether you meet their requirements or benchmark, even if you do pass, its not a gurantee a place in shell, i joined the 12th January 2006 SRD series, it was fun, full of knowledge experience. And i got the offer right on the spot, but the process took about a month after that, due to some complications (my SPM results were missing and i had to obtain it from JPM), so yeah, i could have work there sooner and be one of the accessors, since during my SRD, one of the accessor was the previous SRD graduate.

as i said before, it is something you have to experience it yourself, be confident and you will be alrite, there is a briefing meeting 1 day before SRd, do go, you'll be more prepared the next day. They will tell you what to do, what to prepare and a reading materials for you to excercise at the end of the meeting and to study at home.

Basically the session starts (for me) from 8 am to 4pm, 1st part, analysist thinking, i assume they test you analytical skill, communication and interpersonal skills.
(1 hour to prepare for about 15 min presentation)

2nd part, they will test and look at (assuming again) thinking skills, how do you work in a team, your drive for your reasons, your ability to lead.
(15 min to prepare for about 15 min presentation)

3rd part, is critical in my opinion, must have a good analytical skills and at the same time provide ad hoc solutions, how you manage your time and what justify your reasons.
(10 min to prepare for 20-30 min presentation)

Topic wise, i cant remember it well, its alot of topics thats for sure (especially the 1st part), bind it all together, look for links.

This is as much as what i will share, cant bocor more, or else no more surprise, trust me, its not a brain damaging session, its fun, i made friends there, the cordinator is very friendly, Mr Ahmad, ask him anything, he is a fun guy to be with.

EDIT:
one more advise, if you finished your presentations ahead of time, don't look blur, be firm say its done, if they ask thats all, dont go ahhhhhhhhh yeah i think, add more goreng goreng buta buta, firmly say yes
