ya. read through.
however not much info i can found there.

Yeah. I wonder why are they so.. limited.

are u able to share some info?

just grab the opportunity ,any comments wont change your decision right?

yes, maybe can consider technip?

are you fresh graduate?

ya. any advise?

i guess they offering you trainee position in technip, technip never hire fresh graduate, but aker solution , yes, but the salary just so so...

is it mean technip a better choice, better future, better salary?
how is the salary different between technip and aker solutions?

Like i said, technip never hire fresh, if your position is trainee, don't expect much from salary...

Technip has secured many projects with petronas including 30bln pengerang gas terminal project

i guess you haven't secure a job with technip...

ya....no harm trying...
how about technip tanjung langsat?

No idea about tanjung langsat...

Secure a job first bro,

but secure also need to choose the right one to enter, am i rite?

if u have multiple options to choose, then yeah..u deserve to choose the right one to enter

if not, just make do with any option that u have

beggars are no choosers

again, secure a job first

appreciate input for both company.

do u actually received offer from both companies?

or r u just about to apply to them?

Nope I disagree with you.
Trainee position only application for internships students which last about 3 months only.
On the other hand, Technip do hire fresh graduate engineers and the pay is better than Aker solution.

I had received 2 offers from Aker solutions (grad engineer programme) and Technip (grad engineer), and Im currently working in Technip

oh, mind to share both fresh grad starting pay for aker and technip?

Now technip is offering 3.8 k for fresh graduate pos

thanks for sharing. u have been with technip for how long? mind to share the bonus and annual increment as well? how many months and %?

Grad Engineer its not consider as permanent engineer, its just a probation, within specific period, if candidates can fullfill company requirement, he or she will be converted to a permanent employment , its a normal practice not only in technip, there is no permanent position if the title is grad engineer.

Is technip or aker still open for grad engineer position now? I think I missed the latest intake

Lol, my tittle is as graduate engineer in technip . It is consider as one of the permanent executive level in the technip grading, one level below engineer and 2 levels below senior engineer. Btw , regardless of permanent or contract staff, probation period is conducted so probation is not a justification for not being a permanent staff. And I would like to repeat it again, there is a permanent position called graduate engineer. I'm saying this because I'm a graduate engineer in technip, I had fully understood offer letter, and yet whether I fulfill the company requirement , I'm still a permanent staff that under probation for now

Yea depends on the needs of different department , grad position is open throughout the year.

you are working inside?? I saw opening for structural grad engineer only but im frm electrical engineering discipline... theres is grad planning engineer oso but I like to be a technical specialist in my future career pathway

What i meant was, you have to serve for specific period even your position is permanent, after specific period, you will upgraded to real engineer(drilling eng, electrical enginr, structure engineer,commissioning eng)

What I don't agree with you based on your previous statements are :
1. Technip do hire fresh grads
2. Fresh grad is not a trainee
3. Technip do offer permanent pos fot fresh grad
4. Even though I'm fresh grad, I'm still able to check and review others people work , and had my signature on it , I would consider myself as real engineer now .

Yeap I join not long ago , from what i do , there are not many pos for electrical engineer as technip would prefer outsource them rather taking electrical engineer inhouse

is there any possibilities that I switch from electrical to let say drilling? im willing to learn

Lol just try apply online . But I think they would prefer mechanical engineer

actually I interested in Aker solution subsea engineer program but too bad application is closed now

subsea? Why dont you try for ABB in Subang?

thanks for the tips, just viewed their career section, malaysia only have 2 openings, sales department

Is there any post in Technip for chemical engineer? for Fresh Grad

I think the benefits for a staff who is a CONFIRMED permanent staff and a permanent staff UNDER PROBATION can be different. A couple of examples below:

(1) Resignation notice period - A permanent staff under probation can quit the company by giving a month's notice but a confirmed permanent staff is required to give 3-month quit notice. Similarly, the company may not confirm the permanent staff under probation and can ask the staff to leave the company at the end of the probation period. The company can only fire a confirmed permanent staff due to gross misconduct by the staff who has violated company rules and regulations, only after a few rounds of caution notices given to the staff.

(2) Benefits - Only confirmed permanent staff enjoy full benefits as stated in the employment handbook. examples (i) annual bonus - Usually annual bonus performance is given to confirmed permanent staff only. (ii) medical leave is not accorded to unconfirmed permanent staff and medical benefits are for staff only and not extended to staff's spouse and children.

You need to read your employment terms and conditions again and check with the HR whether you are accorded with the same benefits as the confirmed permanent staff. Don't take this for granted.

Process Engineers are graduates from chemical engineering.

Aker n technip..both ok..salary wise also the same..increment also the same..n usually technip take people from aker n aker also take people from technip..so juz choose which one u want..as long as u secure ur position in oil n gas company is ok..

yup its close..electrical in subsea usually end up in system..n subsea is hard to learn actually..subsea grad prog will be open every 2 years..so next year there will be no opening for subsea grad prog..maybe next 2 years..try to apply position that have junior in fornt, such jr.system engineer, or jr..piping..

In my opinion, it takes 1 to 2 years of on-the-job engineering training for a fresh engineering graduate to shift his 'student engineering' thinking to a graduate engineer thinking. And it takes a further 3 to 4 years of more rigourous engineering working experience for a graduate engineer to transform himself to a "real engineer".

Meaning there is position for process engineer in Technip?

haha..well come on man..give him a chance..he dont want to be treated like graduate..haha

Anyone working in aker solution? how is the benefit? how is the increment?

I have been offered an engineering position in Aker 2 years ago. but eventually i have to turn them down due to my personal issue. There were 2 rounds of interview. 1st round was interviewed by 2 seniors and there was an engineering paper test. 2nd round was interviewed by the department manager.

Benefit wise, each staff is given 3k on their medical claim (which i think its pretty normal/standard for ONG company). secured with a 13th month bonus and performance bonus. hmm cant remember much though. please correct me if i m wrong.

During my interview, the senior told me basically i was based in KL office to do the design work but have to go to port klang once a week for meeting. Also they will second their staff to other aker branch in overseas if KL aker is short of projects (which i think its also quite a normal practice for a MNC).

I don't see any process engineer position for fresh grad from technip.

When will Aker start recruiting for their Subsea Graduate Engineering Programme? From their website, it states that the programme starts may/june every year. Anyone knows?

If you dont mind, can you share with us what is the position and salary? or PM? I want to know whether Aker is fair in terms of salary and increment. Whether the salary will be adjusted according to after proving competency.

headhunter jz reach me for an IT role in there...
haven reply for interview...
anyone can share how is that in there?

Hi, can you tell me which headhunter is doing recruitment for Aker? I'm trying to apply for IT post..
Pls PM..
Thanks..

ive heard that Akers increment is pretty slow hence a pretty high attrition rate.. is it true?

how many percent is consider slow?
how about others company rate?

I mean low.. It's generally lower than other O&G companies.. many Aker staff leave Aker for other companies.. correct me if I'm wrong..

ic......what is the general rate of increment?

so where are you working now bro?

Guys, I got offer from Aker, port klang..how is the working environment, increment, etc over there?

For what position? different dept different env..benefit aker is one of the best, increment is the same compare to other same level company.

same level company is how many %? haha

3-7% per year should be normal

how about project manager salary?

Dont know laa bro..Aik? I thought u already work with aker before? n resign to continue study? now wanna join back?

Not sure under which department as I have yet to get the offer letter. Most probably under control system dept, i guess. So how is the working environment under control system dept? U are working with aker at the moment?

They are offering much lower than my expectation salary, currently negotiating - may or may not be joining them subject to this. Im curios if aker is tight on budget or the recruitment company has KPI to achieve.

Nope, I already resign from Aker last 3 years back, but I can say Im quite regret doing so, Aker is one of the best company that I have join ( interm of culture and benefits). Control system, its a good dept as most specialist in subsea come from that dept and also they are the core for all the subsea system. Good luck with that!

Is there any openings for instrument engineers currently

wat's your concern on this company?

What is the salary range for project manager?
