Quiksand, how did you know when you fail/pass your TA?
I went for TA last 2 weeks, email the PIC but no reply 😓

It depends on the PIC style. like mine, she mentioned that she will email those recommended about 2 weeks after the session. otherwise, she will send out the opposite later afterwards. but hey, just wait. u'll never know.

TA/SI assessors are not HR people - they r normally senior technical staffs. so, they are actually struggling to set a time for this extra responsibility.

good luck!

Yup, the two assessors are very nice senior staffs from same department but different disciplines. They both have vacancies each.

At the end of session, they did reflect on the TA session (maybe since I am a fresh graduate). But so far, it doesn't reflect on what they had told me. Haha

Nevermind, patience is the key right? Or I should move on in the meantime. Hiks!

Btw, thank you very much sir.

Mine wasn't a TA, it was a chit Chat Session.

My assessors (2 of them) were senior people, one was the HOD. After 2 weeks, the HOD emailed me saying that I did not make the cut.

Typically TAs are arranged by HR ( to my understanding ) and they should be contacting you. If you do have the HR contact, drop them an email. Be very nice bout it as they have hundreds of candidates to go through and they may slip here and there wink.gif

Just my two cents on the matter. When I started out as a fresh grad, I applied for jobs and attended as many interviews as possible. Reason being that I wanted to land a job quickly. I got turned down for most of them but made a few cuts, which gave me levarage of choosing the best option.

Waiting would have meant that I would have lost the option to choose. My suggestion is to keep seeking other opportunities while following up on the result of this TA.

All the best to you!

Can someone maybe share what's the structured interview like for an experienced staff >8 years experience? I read that there's 2 stages...1 on case study (it's individual or group) and 1 on behavioral interview. Any tips to share would be really good.

i got >4yrs and i reckon it's the same structure. the differs from <3yrs (fresh grad - where they've got role play). for experienced, role play is optional.

mine was a 2-parts session;

1- case study, they'll give u a short article and what u need to do is firstly summarize the article and answer the questions given in the article; it's something like pro/cons of the issue, what do u think - agree or not, how to overcome the disadvantages and all).
2-experience based - u just need to give situations where u settled a problem by using ur thinking capacity

u may click to my postings before - i've put it down in detail.

good luck! thumbup.gif

thanks for the info. i don't really understand on the process though. cos yesterday i got a call and he said that they might call me for an interview if shortlisted, and asked me to update my resume. any possibility that i'm already shortlisted? or is it like they are just reviewing and wanna check on my details?

Normally they'll ask u to update once u passed the interview....but, that should be a good sign tho. Because there r thousands of people who filled up the online form ( i believe he ask u to update the petronasdiscover profile) and u've been asked to update urs. huhu...

they dont have time to flip and put aside or hold. maybe they r interested in ur current (last update) cv and would like to know more about what u've done in between.

if u digest the whole thread - the golden rule (mcm Shell pulak) is to have patience and do not put too high hopes.....if it's urs, it's urs.

oh i see. sounds great. good if they are interested and if i have the chance to be in the interview. i never put high hopes on this though, as my past experience applying for petronas (which was last year), they never called until yesterday.

the only thing that the HR guy told me yesterday was to update my resume and he'll proceed with shortlisting. i was told that it's for supply chain management dept. smile.gif

Hey everyone! I'm interested in applying for a job at Petronas but I pretty much have little to none info about the jobs offered there and what they often do in each job, etc. Anyone can help explaining? What is the minimum qualification to apply there? Specifically in Sabah.

Thanks in advance!

when you applied, did you wait when there is an opening of your field in the website or you just applied and release your profile to their recruiter without any specific job application?
