hi, congrats. normally your position will go on rotation, maybe after this you'll be the maintenance supervisor, atleast that is what i heard from the operations team. Just make sure you learn as much from the technician offshore, they have extensive experience offshore.
Goodluck

Dear Sifus, what does reserved candidates mean?

in the email the HR said im a reserved candidate, they have problem issuing the offer letter because she said...wait for it......"they have no office space currently"...ikr lol.

the department she mention was pcsb drilling.

Imagine you are in a queue. But I ain't sure whether or not it's first in first out. I have a strong feeling whenever there is a candidate under the same HR who did better than you, they will be put in that queue as well but could be in front of you. It sucks to know you're in a reserve list. I was once there too but thank god I had to wait only for 2 weeks. Patience is a virtue but it's a pain in the ass too. Do some sort of systematic follow up or in other words keep bugging them but don't over do it. I fear that they will get annoyed and that could hinder the process of you getting a job placement

EDIT : Oh shoot, I just noticed you've been waiting for 6 months is that correct? I was told our SI result is only valid for 6 months then you gotta re-attend the SI. Correct me if I am wrong but has anyone else heard of this too?

hi, i have almost the same case like you..but in my case, hr sent me email saying that i passed SI and subject to placement.. they never mentioned me recommended..but untill now which is almost 2 months after SI they never give me an updates about the job placement...last time i make a called to the respective HR they told that they are finding suitable opu for me..then try make a second call few weeks ago but they never pick up my called...so now i just wondering what actually happened in the process of job placement that they were telling us after passed SI..is it confirmed we will be a part of petronas family soon? hehe

heard their benefit is decent, beats the other gas station

see you tmrw mate. will be in the same pipe session!

well i will systematically follow up with them as quite a number of my frens are in the same situation as me.
sad to know that im still in a queue after so long.

Why there is always no vacancy in Finance & Account position? Anyone can refer me to go into...

Thanks a lot...

does Petronas ICT (formerly iPerintis) share the same benefit & remuneration as Petronas now?

Petronas is a great place to work at!

still waiting for my offer letter even though im just make it as a contract staff

going to work hard to convert myself into permanent staff

being sarcastic, no?

From what I understand all new Petronas hires are contract before being converted to permanent, plus their benefits are significantly less. These include ICT and regular folks.

FWIW I don't work in Petronas but I know someone who just started.

Not being sarcastic at all, it really is a great place to work at.

What is so great about it then?

not true

Depending on your department and division or business unit, good pay with good bonuses and great working hours.

well that is not totally wrong. when u get the offer to work in PERONAS, they give u sorta like training in which they call probation. the duration is 6 months and if PETRONAS finds that ur overall performance meet some sort of expectation after that period, only then they'll confirm ur position.

probation is something everyone will go through, regardless of the companies they go to. some 3 months, some 6 months

but there is a difference between being hired to fill a permanent position and being hired as a contract staff. Contact staff work for 1-2 years (as stated in their contract), and if their performance is satisfactory (depends on other reasons either), they might (or might not) be offered a permanent position.

Petronas? Environment depends much on whos yur superior & section colleagues. Get shitty ones, feel like shit everyday.

True story. Still, good company as stepping stone for career. Plenty of tolerance to screw up and learn.
