hi everyone.
is there any of you here been to GE interview?
i have been called for the session next week for commercial leadership programme.

Greetings guys, I am a electrical engineering grad who wants to give up electrical field entirely and be a drilling engineer. Below average cgpa, but very much willing to work offshore.

Current experience includes; power/utilities (TNB for 3 mths), IT/business project management (Accenture for 3 mths), Facilities O&M (Intel Corp for 7 mths), and project/construction/commissioning (Klang Valley MRT Project for 3 mths and counting). Qualifications none.

I have tried applying in many companies but obviously yet to be called for interview. I would like to know what qualifications can I arm myself with to obtain higher chances of being called for an interview? I have tried for Shell graduate programme before (passed all online tests), but never got called to the SRD. Thanks for all inputs.
Also I'm somewhat intrigued in the project management side of things, there was this experienced professional who was sharing his experience about O&G project management in Sime Darby Oil. He mentioned that work was hectic, bosses stuck in office for long hours, staff sleeping/take bath in office, and projects keep on coming which causes staff to juggle multiple projects at a time. Is the situation still the same or has everything cooled down? I am very intrigued in this field also, so mohon share how to get into this if being a drilling engineer is not possible.

And also, mohon mod update link pdf Instok. Very powerful pdf, but I lost it. Thanks.

Its fun to read all the conversations here, but segan nak join.

I guess people have heard of onesubsea, I got offered to their GRDP (sorta like graduate program) with 4 years bond (2 years rotation, 2 years work) and quite an ok pay for fresh graduate. Its more manufacturing even though ada nama O&G. Contemplating since im from chemical background.

The thing is their offer comes too early. I havent done exploring, but scared as well, yang dikejar tak dapat, digendong sudah cicir. LOL. I still wanna go to interviews. Hahaha.

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.

For turbomachinery, what can be the niche? machinery diagnosis? operational performance?

thanks for feedback...right now still working with Scomi?

hi guys, im a fresh grad degree in Material Science fr UKM and im planning to involve in OnG field as future my career. As i see some of seniors are really make a fortune working as a NDT eng etc. and it is quite a huge field to explore too.

So I need helps from all seniors here to  give me some advice and guidelines. thank you

BTW im planning to take OGSP in niosh as my first step. Isn't ok?

Wanfauzan, we're in the same boat. Just have 2 years exp, really difficult to market myself, my contract last on may, one month gone without a salary.     

Because everyone keeps hearing about how good the industry pays. Which is correct to an extent but most don't know anymore than that and if they don't know more than that, it is very very hard to get in.

Haha, you'd be surprise too that there are those office-based peeps from low-to-mid tier level that got there because:
1) They f**ked up too spectacularly in the field, costing their company $$$ and thus moved out (to office) by boss to minimize damage!
2) Those who hush-hush hurry for any opening in the office (coz wifey says so)!

Not starting a flame war between office vs field guys - but just from my observation laa...

Hello everyone,

Just hoping to get some opinion here. Same here, graduated with a chem eng degree last year. Been working in a project management role for almost a year in the oil and gas industry. Am hoping for a more technical role in the future. Was gonna leave my comfort zone and do a full time master degree. Some say that this is a suicidal mission and that probably i wont make it back to the industry.

I received offers from Heriot-Watt, UTM & UTP albeit its research mode in UTP and taught for the former two. I am in a terrible dilemma. So should I do a research mode master degree or a taught one? Negative thoughts has been running all over my head since and that research masters are less recognized by employers. Is this true?

Fees is a factor here. Assuming that I do not want to continue phD after masters, which is the best choice for me given my current scenario. However, I also hear that some people say that companies employed people based on their accomplishment which is an indication of their capability and that their research title is secondary (even though its not related).

P/s: Research title is on EOR.

Help me pleaseeee. Desperately wanna hear an opinion or two.

That JV called Al-Shaheen must not been doing too well then. Funny thing is Baker hasn't been getting the jobs there either. Must be SLB and Sperry then...
