Looking at this thread, I can make summary that UiTM grads in general are looked down upon. However, there are many quality grad. But due to their policy of giving chances for everybody, there are many misses too

On my case, I think I'm harsh to that doctor. I don't really know much about the case. Maybe both are right. I'm not a doctor. Looking at comments their medical grad do quite well in competition

I just hope in future they can accept non-Bumi like Matrik. 10% but it goes a long way for integration. Even KJ said that right?

Awww janganlah butthurt

How to know which doctor UM and UITM

sofya dyana uitm grad.. u see la..

It's like reading a result from 0.00001% of whole UiTM population.


Nothing to see here.

Lol nurse said

If nurse butthurt um doctor and putar halim

How

HQ u work there before?

Wow, what field? Guess they are not sure what they are doing, lol

Cannot stand this mentality, but I suppose it's just normal IRL. I understand that one would want to make enough for daily life, but why go around like peacocks strutting around showing off money? That's why people go around like Qu Puteh or that D'Herbs guy fanning themselves with ringgit bills. That seems to gain people's respect in our current culture.

So what if they someone doesn't make a lot but they're happy? Or they're just starting out? Or they understand that money is a means but not the ultimate goal?

You would think that with higher education, the mentality of the person would be of a higher level as well. Also, I have met so many "graduates" nowadays that can't even figure out simple problems (graduates from all universities, not just a particular one)

Are those actually "friends" btw? Gossip like desperate housewives?

nope..but my relative works in ytl at the bukit berapit quary there..u hq in kl ka? u know every engineer & manager who office at the once perak hanjoong quarry?

But got travel to perak also. I know their GM for quarry. If not mistaken there is only one more staff under the GM for quarry. The rest are subconscious.

Actually its true. I feel like they should abandon the high school mentality but in reality, it still exist.

I dont get gossiped much, only that time when I was barred from 2 subjects because of the attendance.
Those who dont get much salary in the intern we all know laah. Who gets the highest we also know from mouth to mouth! Hahaha

Not desperate housewives laa, guys also gossip. By guys, I mean the gay guys..hahahha

Which degree from UTP? I noticed most of them can speak really well and give good impression during interview. But, when it comes to actually walking the talk, it's a different story... Not all of course, but seems you got bad luck in hiring 5 bad apples there... :-)

All of them in Chem Engrg.

Hired 6 (at different times), 5 of them absconded without completing their engrg internships. One of the abscondees is a handphone addict. She spent 90% of her time tapping away at her phone, even when at site. Had she not run away I would have sacked her for dereliction if duty.

However one did very well and went on to bag a one and only technical job in Petronas.

Perhaps these students came from privileged backgrounds and thus are unaccustomed to working under tough real life conditions.

I hired one student from UITM. His English was rather good despite hailing from Kelantan. However he made a lot of mistakes (who doesn't?) that resulted in money lost but what brought him down was that he blamed his mistakes on me. He developed extreme prejudice and poor attitude and ran away.

The other UITM young man was better. Speaks very good English. In fact he's more comfortable in English than in Malay. He finished his internship (I'd rate him a B in performance) but as a JPA scholar have to return to govt service.

I was invited and recently gave a lecture in UITM and I believe UITM has many talents but like any other universities graduates have to grow up and learn to take up responsibilities and not run away at the slightest obstacle.

Bad apples errwhere esp since commericialization of higher education. The bitterness comes from the fact that public u is so much cheaper than private u n yet learning the same things.

wait till u see doctors from russia

Our company offer RM1.9k as starting salary because the job is not that hard. Customer service face to face (information counter at shopping mall). This is the only company that willing to pay high for this kind of job.

Other mall offer way below than that. I know other mall offer starting RM1.5k only.

They don't want to take it because not challenging enough for them I guess..

Probably the easiest job there is. I would take it rather than unemployed. Most of the time just watch hp only

I'm not uitm graduate, and I can only speak for accounting.

I think uitm and public uni are the best place to do accounting. They can get MIA membership by just graduating degree, they can do internship at Big 4 (IIANM, got quota for local uni), thereafter usually after grad can easily secure job with them.

All that for dirt cheap fees. That's a great package really, fact.

Sure, bad apples happen everywhere, but it doesn't change the opportunity it presents.

IMHO, uitm is not really to blame for bad apples, uitm is just a place, an institution. It's up to grads' own motivation to become who they wanna be. The bad apple's issue is more towards generational problem, of how now they're becoming too pampered or disconnected. Can't fault uitm for that, it happens with grads from any uni.
