I'm facing the same problem as most of the fresh graduates here.

Here's a little about myself. I graduated from the Russian Federation with a degree in Aeronautical and Rocket Engineering in 2011 and I've been working in the aircraft maintenance industry since then. I've been trying to secure a position in the oil and gas industry, preferably drilling and mechanical. But I've never gotten positive feedback from any of the companies I've applied to. The closest I've ever gotten is a phone call from Nabors but they never got back to me. I even tried Petronas Cari Gali for their operations in Turkmenistan because I speak Russian fluently but they were looking for experienced employees. I'm Sabahan but currently working in Terengganu. I've been away from home for the better part of the decade so location is not a factor for me.

So should I just give up on Oil & Gas?

How about an inexperienced candidate but eager to learn? Can I try?

Yeah, I did read your previous posts.
This is the first time someone has suggested MWS to me. Do you think that I'm more suitable for a position in that line? I'm sorry. I know very little about MWS.

I've never considered that. But to be honest, I'm looking to stay in the private sector.

Haha. Buli baaa
Thanks for the advise. I'll do just that.

Thank for the advise, bro.
Any idea on which companies should I approach for the above position?

Most accurate and honest comment I've seen on LYN.

Has anyone heard of MRA International Sdn. Bhd. before?

So..
By any chance is there anyone from Shell HR here?
LOL.

I'm very interested about this as well because I'm trying to get a job as a drilling engineer.

Looking for advice from the Otais here

A friend of mine recommended taking up a basic O&G course from think-plus academy.
From what I understand, it's a recruitment agency that provides practical and specialized courses as well.
Their upcoming course is "Basic Oil & Gas Enrichment Course". I was thinking of signing up to increase my chances of getting recruited.

It costs RM2500 for a 3 day course though. Should I go for it?

True. I asked them the same questions regarding the post-course possibilities. They didn't give me anything concrete. They just said that I'd be given priority when submitting applications for vacancies posted on their website. Thanks a bunch! I was already quite reluctant because of the cost of the course.

Thanks!
I totally agree with you.
I'm interested in drilling. I've been signing up for drilling engineer programs for the past 2 years but I haven't been successful.
My biggest problem is that I have a Russian degree in Aeronautical and Rocket engineering. The Russian education system doesn't use the CGPA system. It's either you have 1st class honors or just like everyone else. If you fail, you don't get a degree. It's that simple. So I always don't know what to put in the CGPA column. I don't want to put in a false figure just to get an interview.

I've written to a few companies.
No reply.

Hi,
I got an interview invite for the post of equipment engineer in one company.
I've googled this position but every site that I've visited has pointed me in the direction of rotating equipment engineer.
What's the job description of an Equipment Engineer?
What equipment do you work on?

Anybody here has heard of or worked for OAG group?
