b4 this i never heard about dis company..myb i not alert the exist of this company...
last month,i was being ask to attend the interview for call centre post done by this company.quite blur bcoz don't know the operation of this company..

on the interview,the participant was more than 10 people.b4 interview,need to take test...need to take 4 test...on my thought,i assume that there was an interview between interviewer and participant only..

after taking all the test,the interview only take about 5-10 minutes..really quite..
i was given an offer and need to go to training for 2 months.the allowance is rm500 per months and located at pj. but,i need to finish my study before joining the course.

after i have graduate,i need to contact them if i interested with their offer and if there any scholarship available for me..

I know this is not about working in Scicom, just to answer some questions about the training conducted by Scicom.

The 4 tests were very easy. english, some math, iq and i forgot what else. The interview session was not really an interview, more to the person explaining to you what the program is about, whether you're interested, advantage taking the course bla bla bla...then he'll give the offer letter, you sign you go home.

Intake once every 2 weeks I think. Training conducted in Stamford College Jalan Barat PJ and the Menara TA One, depends on which batch you are in.

This program is sponsored by Mdec. Job Camp Training in something Call Centre Operation something....2 months, teach you communication skills, english, presentation, grooming, theory about contact centre etc...the class was fun, met great friends, the trainers were awesome, some have experience working as agents, some don't.. Learnt a lot. Have to do assignments, presentation, role play,class activities.

One of the condition is you cannot work with Scicom but only with the 'employer partner'. Very smart, them to have that in the contract. That way the graduates can't force Scicom to offer the grads the jobs. So no questions about bonding whatsoever.Because the job guarantee is a lie, they can't even offer us an interview guarantee. The employer partner don't come that often to conduct the interview session. Have to wait weeks before one comes.Many graduates still don't have chance to be interviewed yet ,that now we are looking for jobs  ourselves, which we don't mind doing except we were promised in the beginning we are going to get a job easily after this training. Some poor friends of mine even quit their jobs before joining this program.

Allowance is not RM500 permonth but RM25 perday. If it's public holiday and no class that day, you won't get paid. Sometimes you get paid once  a week, sometimes you don't. Many excuses were given..blablabla...

If you don't have anything to do, not desperate for job. have money to survive with rm125 a week,no car loan, house loan to be paid and you just want to brushen up your soft skills, then you can join. You'll learn something out of this and you'll be given a cert from BTEC Level 3 call centre something. That cert might come in handy, who  knows.

but if you are desperate for job, have many bills to be paid and tempted by the 'job guarantee' line. then DON'T! DONT and DON'T! You'll get a job as a Steammeat agent faster than you'll get an interview after the training.

scicom have offer me the training..but now still thinking want 2 accept or not?
so the job guarantee was a lie that want to make us attract with their offer?

i need to think more further ..n in dilemma...
i know this program can give benefits but the job guarantee make me reluctant to accept it...
although scicom have made promise that after finish training,they will be given 2 week to search job...a promise is a promise..can't really depend on them...
