No news yet. Did HR call his friend before releasing the offer letter? Wondering what is the exact starting date in April?

Might need to prepare in advance (accommodation, transport, and so on) if they release the offer letter on short notice (hopefully). Congrats to his friend btw!

I just received call from Petronas yesterday and luckily I'm shortlisted. They might start to contact candidate on this week bcs the earliest date is actually 31st March 2021.

What does HR told you? Can you share a little bit? Did they email you the offer letter?

Steady 👍

Woww didn’t expect for petronas to actually call.. because i asked someone on linkedin who is currently a gees apprentice and she said that petronas never called her, they straight up sent her the offer letter through email.

What did the HR person tell you? Mind sharing with us?

How to apply for this? Experienced worker can apply?

Hi! Based on the requirements written, you have to be a fresh graduate unemployed for 6 to 12 months. And i think you have to be between 18 to 26 years of age. But I have heard that a lot of people selected for the programme have been working for quite some and they have to resign in order to join GEES. Thats why a lot of people rejected the offer to join GEES

Chances to get absorbed by the company? I don't think it's a wise decision to resign a permanent job to join this 12 months so called OJT with no guarantee future employment. I just wondered how many participants for this coming intake? If let's say 50 participants per batch with 3 people getting absorbed by the company.. Wao it's still competitive. IMO better look for or stay at your current permanent job instead of joining this.

Hi Minana, why don't you try to apply shell graduate program? If u get the offer I think chances to get absorbed into shell is way higher than petronas gees. Also, u gonna have the chance to travel all around the world just for training.

Thank you for the suggestion 😁 i didn’t even know shell had something like this because i never saw any advertisements for it. I have searched for it and unfortunately it seems like they are not interested in IT Multimedia graduates.. most of the courses they need are engineering courses and some for business.. welp just not my luck i guess 😅

Second this. Take note on the fixed salary for this program also.

Seemed like a lot of candidate put up a high salary expectation in their resume when applying this, plus some are even already employed (no harm to try anyway).

I think if experience is what you're looking for, do apply.

I'm just wondered, accomodations will be provided during OJT in petronas?

For OJT, no. You have to find your own place to stay if its far away from home. But for the class training, they will provide accomodations and food for the whole 2 months.

I just received offer letter from petronas yesterday. They call me before this on feb asked my availability. Then 2 weeks after that I received offer letter from them.

Congrats! Mind to share when is the exact date the programme will start? Are you from technical background?

Congratulations!! Really happy for you! I also would like to know when the program is expected to start And what department they gave you? Is it related to your Degree?

The exact date will be start on 1st April. Report duty and onboarding session will be held online. Yes, theyre offer me department that related to my degree, its finance department.

Aaaa i see.. is it fully OJT for 12 months or do you have to attend soft skills classes too? And is it fully WFH or will you be able to go to work in office? Waaah so many questionsss im so curiousss

If I send a resume, not CV, do you think it's acceptable?

Congrats, Vicenzo.
Finance, huh? I have a Bachelors in Accounting and I still didn't get anything... *sigh*
I guess I didnt make the GEES train again.
