Base in Kerteh?
I got this offer too (different post, base in Kerteh/Contract Staff/Project till middle 2015) but now waiting for official letter.
Yesterday they called me to email them my current salary slip, and this is my 3rd time sending the same salary slip to their HR  .

Project Scheduler / Planner as 2nd officer, will be working with current Planner @ Kerteh.
Will PM u later, would like to know the contract staff benefit etc.

i have the same experience, interviewed from contract basis to permanent basis. my first interview, which is TA is for the contract basis. from my understanding, once you passed the interview, you don't need to attend SI (correct me if i'm wrong), even the HR handle my application also said that. he also mention that if they want to offer to permanent basis, there will be another call for SI session. around 10 days after that, i got a call from HR to attend SI interview.

i will be start working with Petronas this coming July.

well, SI is not really hard compare to TA, of course it was separate into several section. as for my case, if i'm not mistaken, it was separate into 3 section. for experience candidate, they don't have to do role play. other than that, it was quite similar to fresh candidate interview.

TA stand for Technical Assessment, normally experience candidate will have this interview. for fresh candidate, they will have chit chat session (correct me if i'm wrong)

SI stand for Structure Interview. basically, this interview will be conduct by HR.

patient is the key when dealing with petronas HR.

sorry bro, i think you kind of confuse with my early statement. i was not offered contract position after entering Petronas. i was during the interview stage.

let me explain again to you, when they 1st call me for 1st interview (TA), they invited me for contract position. 10 days after the 1st interview, they call me again for 2nd interview (SI). that's mean, they have change from offering contract position to permanent position.

the chronology is like this:

(1) Called for Technical Assessment (TA) for contract position -----> (2) called for Structure Interview (SI) for permanent position -----> (3) Issuing GL for medical check up ------> (4) Issuing Offer Letter for permanent position

hope this help

What about if they offer you a contract position.?
The payment is not that high.
It will be on project basis.
Should we grab that opportunity??
