I used to work at Petronas b4 as vendor.i think Carigali is the most 'stress' OPU compare to others.U attached to what OPU?

Hi, just wondering when did you attend their structured interview? Did they send you letter? Mine got no reply, so I assume I did not make it.

this is like asking....."tell me which Genting top executive is a bumi?"

this isnt benefitting anyone

tun haniff omar ex-igp

Genting group have its casino business, would you like to join the company?

Anybody know whats the starting salary like? for fresh grad? Research department just have a chat with me the other day but then i think i blew my chances by telling them i hate office environment.

circa 1998, a Petronas engineer fresh grad will get around RM2300
dunno about today though

starting pay is 2510 for fresh grad.

you might need their reply as long as six months

yea, usually they'll give you 6 months period..the best thing for you to do is, call the hrm department, then ask them for you interview status..if your status is recommended, then just wait for vacancy they will call you..but if you are not recommended, then you have to wait for another 2 years then you can apply back.

That is pretty long! I have actually written several emails but no reply.

Thanks for your reply. Are you working in Petronas?

How do you think about working environment of Petronas compared to Schlumberger? Which one is better in term of life, environment, safety, benefits and etc?...thanks..

which bussiness unit?
dagangan? gas? engineering?

engineering

just go..

then u will start complain lots of things.. such as underpaid (compare ur counterpart in other company), workload too much while ur technician overtime more than what u have per month..

gain knowledge.. gain exp.. 5-6 years.. then u can start to make a move..

even u are in engineering.. it doesn't means u will work as pure engineer.. some will works as executive such as planner, contract, procurement.. don't expect much on that..

hi how has you stay at petronas been? Ive been offered a position as well, will be joining in july.

Actually 6 months is quite long. But some OnG company still practise such policy. I think there are alot of opportunity in petronas. Its a place you can learn and develop skills. i heard they provide lots of training. And when the time's right or you feel you're worthy you can start thinking on joining other companies with the current background achieved.

*seventh7* utpian? cause I recalled seeing such name before in the IRC.

Yes, they are racist, so?
Uh! I thought we all knows everthing has something to do with bumi will be considered as racist.
If you know already then dont join. Got prob with that?
~Sick with this kind of mindset.

I use to have the similar mindset during my studies years. But once i'd started working with them, I'd realized that there are some whom posses capabilites far beyond our reach. Don't generalized bumi as a so called puppets in an organization. For them to come up to that level, they too have their skill and competence. Yes they have earn my respect. If there's one bumi boss whom you clarify acts as a boss and does nothing then who is the boss? clearly the one in charge behind sure cannot tahan and resign due to underpay and overworks. Please change your mind set. everyone of us is human. we are no different from earning a bowl of rice. Difference might be on the amount. If you're good a company is willing to hire you with large sum of money regardless of position. At the end of the day, its completing the job till the deadline that counts. So don't be a stereotype.

I heard slb offers much higher salary for freshies compared to pet..IMO, actually work wit any company at the beginning also the same..like wat most of the ppl says,gain experience 1st..with tat xperience u can hop to other OnG companies u like..try 1st loe..u wont noe by juz opinions frm other ppl..see frm yur eyes n u`ll noe better..if it`s reli `hopeless` to work wit them,then try to jump to other companies..luck man
