I just received a call from Petronas yesterday. HR said the 1st intake will be started on 1st April and for 2nd intake in July.

I'm actually curious about this too.. because I don't have a CV yet, just a resume for now. Someone who got accepted for the programme, I hope you can answer this question

Any engineering background get the offer?

Hi, congratulations on getting accepted as well. I also received the offer letter from Petronas yesterday. Did you know anything about our training schedule?

I send Resume as my CV. I put all important information in 1 page only. For me (as fresh graduate), I don't have more work experience. If I do I will make a CV more than 1 page (in detail).

Hi, congratulations!!! Did they sent you the namelist of participants as well?

Unfortunately they didn’t. They only attached few documents and my offer letter. They did mentioned that the programme will starts on 1st April.

Thank you! (forgot to say that in previous reply hahahahh)

It's me. HR called me to confirmation and give me the offer letter by next week.

Aaaa so same with what I did.. thank you for answering ya 😁😁😁 I almost had to make my resume 2 pages because there was just not enough space to put everything lol

Hi..
Minana..
Did you receive the offer yet?

Anyone else here who haven't gotten a reply back from Petronas?

To be honest I'm lowkey worried that I didn't get it :((

Hi! Unfortunately not yet might have to pass the interview first before getting the offer.. which is quite surprising to me because I have never heard of anyone getting interviewed for gees before 😅 but i guess this is just my luck.. hopefully i can do well for the interview

You can do it!! Get your choices open..do you prefer other company too?

Thank you I always keep my choices open.. because this gees programme is not a permanent employment, so im still gonna have to consider other jobs in the future.

Not to break your spirit but having petronas on your resume is good but basically you are going to be cheap labor. My friend's son join protege (not sure similar to GEES) back in 2019 and after completion, he did not get hired. For almost 1 year looking for job here & there and finally landed a job in pertama ferroalloy.

I received the offer letter from GEES as well. Idk was it a bad decision for me to take it since I left my current employment for just a "training" program. But I had always wanted to be in the field and even with knowing i will be "Cheap labour" I still took the offer. I wondering anyone that did completed GEES (and not other proteges programs), were they hired after this program ended? And if not did it really not make a positive impact in their career direction?

It depends on the company, not every company is the same. And I think everyone who applied for this programme already knows that Petronas never guaranteed employment after the contract ends, they literally stated that in their website. In the end, it depends on the person’s performance and vacancy in the company, also a lil bit of luck.

I am just grabbing whatever chances and opportunities that I get because only the Lord and people in the same shoes as me can understand how difficult it is for us to get jobs right now, so we are just doing whatever we can to survive at least we have jobs and can earn some income for at least a year, while waiting for the pandemic to pass

All the best dear young padawan! May the force be with you.

some of my friends applied for this programme early last year/ end of 2019 and were called at the end of last year
