Hi, i got an email saying this: » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « With reference to your recent application, we are pleased to inform you that we would like to invite you to attend an interview. One of our interview coordinators will be contacting you in the near future to arrange this. I guess it is the first interview. Is SRD the second? Is there any other interviews after that? i realized that certain topics will be given for us to explain but i'm not sure whether it is in the first or second interview. From the previous pages I noticed that the second interview is very long. What do they ask till that long? Thanks This post has been edited by silverwave: Sep 21 2008, 11:14 AM

QUOTE(bezet @ Sep 21 2008, 10:43 PM) that should be your 1st interview, if u apply through the website. 1st interview is short questions. see how good can you talk and make sense... 2nd interview is whole day. you r not accessed one whole day, it will be divided into a number of section and you r not alone, that is why it took the whole day. cheers thanks for the reply. For the first interview, i read through the previous replies and it seems that a topic will be given. What do they expect us to elaborate? advantages, disadvantages, causes, effect and so on?

QUOTE(tishaban @ Sep 22 2008, 02:40 PM) Added on September 22, 2008, 2:43 pmsilverwave, in my experience at least they want to see how you analyze the situation/topic given. Think global was one advice that was given to me. If you're given a situation to analyze you'd want to think from your point of view, the company's, the customer, the general public, the media, your supporters, your detractors, etc. The interview was hard but I thoroughly enjoyed it  Thank you for answering that question. Seems like thinking outside of the box is very important. I applied for electrical and electronics engineering position. Just out of curiosity, are the engineers placed in selangor or transferred to other places? Just got a call for interview on Thursday. This post has been edited by silverwave: Sep 22 2008, 03:59 PM

QUOTE(Jasmine Chew @ Sep 25 2008, 11:55 AM) good luck to you silverware, oh ya, do you mind to share your exp later after your 1st interview, like what topics are given to you, etc. for those who have gone through the 1st interview as well, can you guys is like post here regarding on what kind of topics are given to you during the 1st interview section? thanks alot ya.. There were 4 topics given. 2 i had no idea coz it was so long, another was smtg bout company and one more was oil related. Btw, i got a call yesterday for second interview but it is in Miri. The person called me said technical jobs are there, so if i get it i will be placed in Miri itself.  Anyone knows how is the salary and working hours for a fresh grad in electrical and electronic engineering? Curious to know This post has been edited by silverwave: Oct 1 2008, 05:13 PM

hi guys, I have a very weird situation here.
I went for the first interview and i got a call 4 days later saying that they would like to call me for the second interview in Miri. She told me the date to book the plane ticket, the time of SRD and the briefing. A week later, the same lady called me and asked me if i got the conformation email and i said no. She told me i have to wait for the mail before i can go for SRD and she will contact me soon to confirm. I said ok. Then a week later, i get a call from Miri saying that they have checked with Shell KL and i did not clear the first level of interview, therefore i am not invited. 2 hours later the email saying that i did not make it arrived.
It seemed to be very weird to me. I don't think Shell can make such a mistake by informing the wrong person right?
Anyone been in similar position or have any advise about this situation?
