I see. bro kslee, did u study here formerly? and are u attached with a foreign company or a local one? smile.gif im very wry for myself cos i want to enter this field of OnG, but it seems the only way to get in is thru petronas, however, usually they give more priority to their scholars, im not one of them, and im also at an disadvantage bcos im not a bumi. sad.gif

Well,if you're good in academic plus excellent interview skill- that means good in selling yourself. It's companies who are after you.

I guess it depends from which department you're in. Production department 7.5 months make sense. Design Department, maybe. Finance department, dun think so.

Few stories from my colleagues regarding pay back loan:

Assumptions: If you have $$ issues.
1. Took Bank loan and pay lump sum.(provided they got a placement in Baker, SLB, Shell,EM etc)
2. Break the bond by installment (Budi Bicara).
2. Honored the 10 yr bond.

If you're Pet + FAMA scholar, i guess there wont be an issue.

Sometimes I just wonder  rclxub.gif , there are thousand of people outside looking for working with PET, yet they are not scholar with PET also. But those who got scholar and opportunity working with PET they reluctant and  thinking how to get money, loan to pay back the scholar  hmm.gif

Yes is all about individual dream and satisfactory, we can't force people to get wat they want. Hehehe...  doh.gif

Again, back to the individual edu background and career options availability question.hypothetically, there are a few pet scholar categories:
1. UTP
2. Overseas graduate (US/UK/IVY leagues etc)
3. Local Private universities

Putting yourself in their shoes, they actually stand better chance to have better options other than PET. just my 2 cents. PPL always want better job, better life. you're welcome to discuss. honored the bond or not, that's up to individual choice.

Years ago, I attended the 'ässessment day' of petronas scholarship. Their staff clearly stated it is a study loan & BOND during the opening remarks. I walked away because i felt deceived. Ended up in one of the top public engineering sch in malaysia, graduated with first class honors, it took me 18 months to land a job in OnG. If i were given second chance to go back to that moment, i would've chosen the same path. Out of so many scholarships out there for grabs, i'm surprised to see there are huge amounts of people took the STUDY LOAN and whine later. Petronas is a business entity, they invested in human development, they want return. There's no free lunch in this world.

Wow. even with 1st class honours, took 18 months to land  in O&G... In between also did some jobs in between?

yup, non OnG related industries. applied to numerous OnG players, only few replied. That was the dark time of my life. I attended big players interview, fell hard on ground. From interview to interview, i learned from the mistakes. I always remember those dark days where i have to buy Star Newspapers every saturday, hunting for jobs. Now i'm a man with yellow coverall.
