Hi all. Just want to share my story. I passed my SI in September 2013, a week after I had it. Then I've been calling HR for every to weeks and until at one point (maybe late November) I stopped calling them. Then in late January I called up again to follow up. The HR was well aware that I've been waiting since September. Then the next day they emailed me saying that they could not find a position for me and wish me good luck for my future. I was a bit confused actually. Does that mean I didn't get any job and got rejected? Or does it mean that particular HR division does not have any suitable position for me? Then they called me confirming that what they meant by it, is the latter.  Phew so there's still chance for me. But honestly speaking, I don't put any hope anymore. If there's rezeki then adalah kan. So they put my name under another HR. What got me upset is that whenever I called them, they never tell me any updates and just told me to wait for their call.
I was happened to have a friend whose her husband works in HR at Petronas as well. He told me that he can check the status of my placement and the result is currently there are 2 Operating Units that are considering me. Lucky me again, happened to be that my dad's friend is a senior manager at Petronas then he helped to check my status. And I got more accurate result; PETCO is currently considering me and will finalize it by end of this week (if lucky), should they not be able to put me in, they will push my CV to another OPU.

So here I am now, still waiting for them to call me if they want to take me in. Thank God I'm currently working so it does not really matter how long it would take. But I hope it won't take too long. Moral of the story is, KEEP ON CALLING THEM if you're in the same situation like me. I should have called them continuously till they're annoyed and do something about it.

IMHO, you were already KIVed when they said you needed to wait a period of time. They were just being polite by keep on saying they will push to other units

My friend who just graduated end of last year and passed all the tests including medical and he will be going to Kerteh in this FEB month. Seems like he waited not that long. 

after 2 months waiting, yesterday i got an email from one of their HR, stated they have recently received the confirmation of my position details and they will now proceed with the employment pack approval.

They target to issue the medical examination letter by end of next week.

Does it mean i already got the position in some department?

Petronas HR has their own way of doing things and they always think that their process is the best but obviously its one of the worst.

Hi there
just curious, it is job that is offered by petrns strictly suit to your engineering discipline??as i am PE, if they were to offer me, will i only get job strictly relate to my background eg reservoir eng., petrleum economic, etc??
Tq.

wat position?.......some of my friends working there got 4+2 months bonus...

Not necessarily.

Most likely it will be something related to your study i suppose..

Nowadays does Petronas still give priority to UTP students for hiring?

I wonder...
