Damn, you are good! Should write a book "shortcut to get high pay"... bravo bro... I read an article today, "Performance matters, Impression don't".. Any comment? Why an employer needs to counter offer if an employee is well proven as a performer? Why wait till he/she resigns? That'll look bad on both parties. Don't u think?

If current company counter offer 30% but the new company you want to jump is one of the "big sisters" with 10%-20% increment, which one you will choose?

(^__^)

To all sifu,

How is the OnG industry in sabah? is it booming? any opportunity?..

There is a saying that, "Be loyal to your company but never die for a company".

huaaa were jumping these past few post hehehe.

anyway thats the theme we get in the v5. cant tell how tranquil is now after i made my 1st jump. work is still hard, greasy and everything else but the heart is content and when i get back home there is a fulfillment about it.

jilat jangan x jilat

Here's a good article:

I'm kuli only... office boy.. it's happen everywhere...

you need to know what is "hard to be replaced" term.. this term apply to good drilling engineer, that is why one of my friend salary is USD 1000/day..

bro.. it is not shortcut to get high pay.. it is market rate.. promotion for well proven performer does not mean they will receive 'market rate' salary.. sometimes you no need to resign, you just need to highlight about it if you have balls..

Depends on individual.. example: maybe in next 10 years, if the offer come from KL and I want to settle down, have more time with wife and kids.. I will choose new company..

Thanks for the info bro..

Hye all pros.

Just want to get some expert views. Recently I received an offer from MMHE for graduate trainee programme. Should I accept this offer or wait for other opportunity? I am a little bit nervous in making my first step in this industry. My career goal is to join drilling later in my career.

Thx!

You still can pursue your drilling job while working.. however, kindly check the employment contract, maybe there is clause mentioned on 'bond'

Fasting month.. cannot simply jilat...

There are 20 months training programme. If successfully completed the training with excellent record, then will be bonded for two years. Is it a go? Currently I am also waiting for interview result from SK. Think I performed well in the interview. Plus, the interviewer mentioned that I may join other department such as drilling after one year working. Should I wait or just go with MMHE?

Thx!

As long you can resign without penalty during 20 months training programme should be fine. Check on notification period of resignation. Your training with monthly salary right?

Hi. I'm going to graduate soon by June 2014 with a degree in Geomatic Engineering. I would like to involved working in O&G industry. From my knowledge, my field in O&G industry is related to survey, mapping and navigating. So can u advice me the route I should take to apply for O&G company.

It should be Western Geco by the way, a Gecko is a lizard ....

You can work in the operators as well such a Petronas, Shell or Exxon because there are not a lot of people doing Geomatics and yes, the companies need Geomatics specialist to monitor the vendors such as Western Geco, Polaris, CGG veritas are doing a proper job of seismic acquisition. You also may need to come up with the seismic acquisition plans and programs. Lots of opportunities.

Sorry for my error. Anyway thank you for your comment and advice..
How about the interview conducted by them. Can you explain more about it to me. Their regular questions and activities to candidates.
As far as I know, one question they will ask is that would i use the same plate that were used to served bacon. tq

Seriously, if you berkira about this kind of thing, then maybe you'll have issues working internationally.

Haha.. no lah bro. im fine with it.. i just want to know the perfect answers for it.. and what other question they may ask..

I would expect (if they do ask ... though I wonder why they would ask these kind of questions) would a big NO. No, I have no issues.
