Might as well share it here:
Job Title : Geologist
Job Description : Assisting Geotech engineer in Site Investigation work, design slope and ground treatment with minor terrain mapping involved.
Years spent in company : 2 years 5 months
Company : Geotech Consultant Firm
Industry : Geotechnical Engineering Consultant
Tenure : Permanent
Employment Level : Fresh
Experience before joining : None. I even got accepted before my graduation.
Age: 25
Highest paper qualification/ education background : Degree
Salary : RM3k
Benefit: Insurance, bonus (2 months), some token for birthday (usually rm100 Jusco Voucher), Company annual trip.

I think I might be a little underpaid here. Plus, my experience in geotechnical engineering won't get me many places with my degree, unless I take another degree in civil engineering. Any thoughts?

What is the difference between geotechnical engineering and civil engineering?

well in civil, u have a lot of sub-subject. People with degree in civil engineering can choose either they want to do structure, drainage, highway, bridge, geotech. Its a general thing. While geotech is the sub-class of civil. in Geotech, mostly u deal with piling stuff, ground treatment, site investigation work, settlement analysis. basically all ground improving work as a base for building.

Why didn't you try for OnG companies?
I'm sure they pay way more than RM3.9k for your experience and qualification.

Yea I tried that, but no luck. Shell, Petronas, Nippon Oil, all no luck. So I thought maybe I will venture into management field, gain more exp, then I will go into OnG.
