Hi, everyone! I have been reading through LY forum all morning and finally decided to log into my 2 year old inactive account to mingle with you lot! Like a lot of you I am a fresh graduate looking to get into OnG with a Mechanical Engineering (MEng) degree.

Well, I'm not really here to ask any questions (yet). But I think as the weeks of unemployment goes by *touch wood*, I'll probably start asking for some help from you veterans. =)

I just came back from the UK last Monday after a tiring 9-month job hunt over 80 companies. Now I'm trying my luck here and have sent applications to Halliburton, Deleum, Petronas, Exxonmobil, and a few other non OnG firms.

Again, nice to meet you lot. =)

Depends on the size of the company and how many candidates are applying. It may take as long as a month. Which company did you apply to?

I want to ask, if I take a job as a CAE engineer, will I be able to join OnG in the future?

Guys, according to the careers page of MMC

They said that fresh graduates who apply must be registered with the BEM. Is that true for most of the OnG companies or just for some?
