hi all,
im a fresh grad from UTM. i went to the shell recruitment day in miri last month and that got me realy interested in the oil&gas industry.
i didnt get the job with shell but i'm still looking for a way into o&g. any suggestions as to where i should be concentrating my efforts. i mean, what companies are good (in terms of pay and employee welfare) and is most likely to accept a fresh grad without much hassle?
FYI, i have a degree in electrical engineering majoring in mechatronics.
please help guys, i dont want to stay unemployed for much longer

whats the most effective way to apply for the job? because i'm not really convinced online job applications are very effective.
these companies must get hundreds of online applications each day. can they really sift through all the data?

join u in saudi arabia? r sure u wanna go?
seems really hard to get work with the big big companies but it also seems like a bit of a risk to accept offers from the smaller companies... or am i just being paranoid?
can sum1 explain the differences in terms of pay and employee welfare&happiness between working for a well-known o&g company compared to a small unknown o&g company?

QUOTE(iDk @ Jan 15 2009, 01:53 AM) There are not much different and most likely same as any other industry, big and small company have their pros and cons. In big company, you are nobody (dispensable), small company less benefit but you have the chance to meet the boss or director and discuss things. Again, for fresh, i would advice join mnc company, because small company are trying their way to fight and survive against those mnc company, so the employee in small company need to be elite, smart, correct working attitude and experience in order to contribute to the company, unless the small company not aggressive and everyday happy go luck. thanks for the insight bro. i'll focus more on applying for MNCs. i have to stop being lazy to go to interviews!
