sure - I wanted to share it yesterday, but gosh, I missed my flight back to Kuantan!  so, I slept on the benches at KLIA and got on the next flight yesterday...what an experience. hahaa...ok, enuf about me.

anywy, there were 5 candidates for Mechanical (Piping) position. They got 5 each for every other dept as well (MCI - I guess this is material corrosion, IC - instrument control and Mechanical (Static).

I was the last to get in, literally - 5:20pm    the HR and the interviewer kept apologizing for I had to wait that long - but definitely OK with me.

Since the session was running late, they kinda speed up things. there were 2 panels.

it was really a chit chat session at the beginning - relaxed mode.

then the real session started; 

1. introduce urself - just about ur self, if u have working exp, just save it for later - there is a dedicated question along the way.
2. they will guide u with simple questions
3. technical part - they asked for what u actually do - how do u conduct/plan ur tasks
4. technical question - since my applied position is piping - the question was about piping; material, wall thickness calculation -

# ps: if u don't know or don't do anything they ask, just say NO. it's completely OK. like myself, I don't do wall thickness calc (since my job related to brownfield (modifications - no need to design new piping), so I just say no - but I took extra effort to prepare - tried to write but missed the formula by a component - they say, it's all good.   

5. what code and standards u referred to - ASMEs, APIs, PTS ( at least mention basics one like 31.38.01.11 for general piping)
6. name projects that u've done - they'll jot down from there - not flipping thru ur cv - so remember ur projects by heart - name and briefly what it was about.
7. what is the pull/push factor for application
8. what is ur extra credit - mentioned things I do besides job scope - added value to the company - things like committees
9. ended with - last word from u.
10. they'll contact in 2 weeks time, if pass then move to SI.
11. now they r actually creating a pool of candidates - so, they'll rank everyone and offer them accordingly as time permits. so, just chillex.
All in all, it was a great experience. basically they'll ask basic things - at least things u do. not so technical, but more on concept.

feel free to ask more, since I think it's better if I ask what u want to know since I can keep rambling all day. hahahaa 
pss: don't do this during interview - keep it short and simple and convincing. if u good at English, it's a big chance to nail it. just my observation. 

Yeah, going to call them today or tomorrow. Now busy meeting meeting meeting for Petronas Carigali Turkmenistan project.

I really doubt they can give what I expect, at least 7k lah.

Thank you I have a picture now. All the best !
