good..keep up your good study...do harder..push over the limit...feel the pain of studying hard because soon..you will feel the sweetness of it..don't worry about kind of engineering background..once u enter O&G environment or others..u will learn from zero actually..they just need your engineering aptitude and of course attitude to start everything..but keep in mind.. 3 pointers doesn't mean you could be 100% accepted in top big companies..to tell u the story..few years ago during my interview session me and one of my colleague were the only local graduates..the rest 98 candidates were overseas graduates...imperial college, MIT, Purdue, RPI, Manchester, uni of london..bla2..sounds like u are in deep shit, right?but at the end of the final stage interview..just two of us were selected..not to show off..just sharing long time ago experienced..wanna know how i fought for it?..pm me..

Sure i wish to know. thanks for sharing your experience. rclxms.gif

Trainee HR? Not the same as engineering positions, I guess you start off as an "executive"? Since it's office position, should be ok. Not many positions like these are being put up on their hiring website. try newspaper or emailing them directly.

Bro, how about engineering position? especially offshore. blink.gif

LOADS of them are out there. Just jump in and join lor. But you must know one thing about the OnG community, we might be a huge industry but we are a small community, hence most ppl in OnG know each other before some got into it, in other words, go rub shoulders with some OnG ppl and get them to pull you in. hehehe

Can pull me in also? Wanted to join OnG but find no road... hehe biggrin.gif

Dude, U wanna stay a sales engineer? then stick to SALES!!! u're a salesman not an engineer. Get your stuff sorted out dude.

As for pulling anyone in.. I dun see you guys rubbing any shoulders with me? so how? lolx. i'm currently based in Miri, sarawak, and i'm sure you guys are not cos if you are you would know how it works in O&G. Heck this is an Oil Town anyways.

Houston? I was based in Houston in like 96-99. Sorry am not there now lolx

For almost half year, I'll been trying all the way (website, forum, newspaper, oilcareer.com bla bla bla) to apply for a position in OnG. Same like bro pandikar, my luck also haven come... but surely i am not gonna giving up.

Bro Noyze, any suggestion for me? I desperately need some advise. Miri... wow. Hope i will be there soon.
