Ouh,ok..i did the same thing..how long did u wait before getting their phone call?

Sorry,i've no idea about geotechnicians..but I think it's more on the finding/discovering potential spots for drilling...you might try to google to get more info..

yea.... the most important thing is how are u making urself shine compare to other candidates... but, one point to bear in mind is that ''talk only what u know' cause their hr ppl are really tricky and smart.. every of the point u talk about will make them point out other questions which makes u need to go deep and xplain it with the real xperience or knowledge.

christine, how was the interview?

the interview is ok, just an informal chatting with 2geoscientist manager... they give me information about the job specification and information and ask some questions about me.... however, i still need to wait for around 2 or 3 weeks before they make the final decision as now is still the early stage of recruitment....

For those who already been working in O&G industry for long, i have a question to ask you guys and need your opinion and point of view on it. (It is only for those who ALREADY working in O&G!).

I consider myself is already in OG because now is still under training period. Until recently, i had a chat with one of my friend who working in one of the top drilling company (no name mentioning). He is LWD engineer. After spoke to him, he asked me why dont join the Upstream process, he can help me to check around with his boss for vacancy in LWD. But i told him that i will think about it after few years time in my current field (pipeline inspection specialist). Then he tell me why waste time in that field, where else i still need to learn everything from the beginning again if i change to LWD, and he say LWD's pay is where too much higher than my current field market just because of the different of upstream and downstream.

My mind keep on thinking shall i jump now if i got the chance or just stick with my current field and look at the situation first. Because the pay is what i concern about.

So for those "old horse" in this field, free to give me some of your opinion on this matter, ok? Thanks in advance, and have a present day.

Anyone knows other companies that providing services like Geoservices, Western Geco, Fugro etc?

I don't really know how to describe their services but I think it's more on data acquisition or whatnot.

Please, I really need the info. Thanks

any IT vacancy in OnG? How is the IT pay? hope to get higher pay...

yeah... i oso want to know is there career opportunity for IT grads in this industry?

guys, need info..
how many interview screening for schlumberger??
i will have group interview at the end of april.
im looking forward to work in this co even the works environment is tough.

some will face three. some will face five. i am very much envy of you. i really-really wanted to join this company since the day I graduated.

First, how old are you? They only want young engineer (preferably 26 year-old and younger) as field engineer. You will go through the HR interview. Then, another round of group activity if you pass the first interview.

i'm 24 this year. actually when i tried to apply the job online, i was unsuccessful. however i graduated on 23, 6 months unemployed, settling down the jpa scholarship matter.

but recently, my uni organized a career fair and one of the participated company is schlumberger. from there, i attend the talk, meet them, attend short interview and i passed. they give me a date to come to their group interview after that. well, it depend on your luck.

maybe you guys can try meet them in any career fair wherever they participated rather than applying the job online and the online feedback is not faster compared to walk-in interview with them.

hihi... me again for some question....

is there anyone working in DIALOG, http://www.dialogasia.com/default.asp
wish to work in OnG industry but since all those giant havent give me a reply yet...
so i decided to try others as well....

please kindly share some of your experiences in Dialog... thank you...

hi everyone out there.......im graduating this coming august and im facing a hige dillema now... i've been offered wt a job as a geotechnician in baker hughes, and at the same time, i've been shorlisted for the screening and the group interview by slb..... the only thing left is to wait for the result of the personal interview and the last interview in the kl office. which company between baker and slb is better if, i say if, im offered to work in slb as well?

honestly, it depends on the offer. i'm sure you can ask to hold the offer?

international contracts are much better than local ones. and also depends on what position you get in slb.

yea.... i do agree, but if i want to build my career, let say for 10years in the same company, which one will be a better choice?

does this industry have jobs for chem and bio college grad?

U can try working there.. good place to start. but mentally must be strong becoz from my experience they only offer a low salary especially to the freshie, and u must cover other position also even u just a freshie. and just prepare to urself to travelling. but u can learn from there for 1~2 Year and then jumping to other company. Quite easy to get a job at dialog becoz they have a lot of problem to recruit a staff, no one wanna work with low pay izzit?? gud luck to you.

if youre a fresh grad and you take a position as a field engineer what should you be expecting out there? do they dump you out in the field straight away? by yourself ?

and female field engineer ... any comments?

female engineer.. not many girl wanna working at site. so far i only found few. but as a field engineer that doesnt meant u need to come to site everyday. but if u come to site everybody will at you... but u will have advantage as a girl coz everybody trying to be nice with u.
