Guys, help me decide which job offer shall I take.

I just finish my mechanical engineering degree.. And currently waiting for my final semester results.

I have two job offers; let's call them Company A and company B

Company A, where I previously did my internship. The pay is about rm2,300 until my results are officially out. Once the results are out, they increase my pay by 1k. I'll me doing mostly mechanical and procurement in this company. In this company. Here I know I'll learn a lot with the guidance of my previous supervisor. The current job offer puts me directly under him. He is one of the reason I'm considering as I'll learn a lot from him.

Company B is a start up company. Currently the company only consist of two people and they are the partners that started the company. So basically I'm their first hire. They  are offering about rm3,500. Here, I will also learn a lot about helping managing the company, meeting clients and other stuff.

Both company are in the oil and gas industry but in different area. I'm aware of the risk of Company B where it can go bust and the job is less secure compared to Company A but starting and building the company from scratch seems like a good platform where I can learn also which is why I'm interested to go there.

I have also previously worked with one of the partners of Company B and I know that he has experience and can be a good mentor to me.

So I'm confused.. Help!!

B hands down...

u'll learn to do licensing (e.g. petronas supplier self service, govt bodies PKK, UPK, CIDB etc) business proposal apart from technical..get to know many ppl in the process....being jack of all trade but master of none. The knowledge you gain is very precious if u were to start ur own business in the future.

Wasco energy, I think their main office is in Singapore and they are related to Jutasama the fabrication company.

They are all under the Wah Seng group if I'm not mistaken

If you want to know more about geology stuff you have to dig at Ver 3, 4 and 5 thread where Azreil has been discussed this matters previously. Use search function.

well I would say it really is open to how you want to develop yourself (and the opportunities given by your boss/mentor).
you can either be the type that just do reports, do the planning / tracking , etc repetitive job, or you could choose to take this opportunity to learn most of the things overall as you will be more exposed.

I believe it is both technical and management job since how can you manage if you dont know the technicalities of it.

whether its a dead end up really differs from people and from companies. From my experience I've met project directors / managers / team leaders from planning background and yet also some planning engineers who just stay as planning engineers for many years.

Hi guys, I am invited by Scomi to join Assessment Center next friday for their management trainee programme. Anyone here has experience or currently working at Scomi or has information about the assessment day? I have been googling but got only few information about the assessment. Hoping to get some tips on how to approach the assessment. Thanks.

was offered Engineer post after passed the MT math, english, iq, verbal, listening tests, group discussion, cases analysing tests, interviews back to year 2007. no MT post for me as i have few years construction technical experience prior joining, succeeded all the assessments.
lot of good exposure for their MT at various business units with mentor.

go and try out yourself and all the best! no tips for me last time and all by myself (no any guidances/ advice), just present yourself and try your best. drool.gif

For turbomachinery, what can be the niche? machinery diagnosis? operational performance?
*
field service for turbomachinery. normally consist of a team with 1x to hundreds field service members/engineers. depends on the thousands hours of overhaul/inspection.

in a field service team for outage, it may be day and/or night shift, subject to customer requirements.
it may be borescope inspection, rotor inspection, combustion inspection, hot gas path inspection, major inspection subject to the running hours.
it may be a GTG engineer, instrument and auxiliary engineer, QA/QC, T&C engineer, etc, depends on the outage and agreement with the customers.
some of the posting require minimum 5 years experience with proper qualifications or 10 years experience with proper qualifications. some start from fresh graduate program to become niche, some switch from aviation.
