why the hell there are so many dupes lmao

Have you already got the link?

Have you receive the link for reprt duty?

I received the offer, and I haven’t received the link for report duty. Have you?

Have you reply back all the forms? I havent got mine.... so Im kinda scared actually

Yup, I’ve replied all the forms. Yeah me too.. I haven’t heard from them since i replied all the forms

Pm!

I still havent gotten anything from Petronas yet. Outlook is looking kinda bleak tbh. All I can do is remain hopeful.

There’s no definite answer to your question imo.. it depends on your mindset honestly.. was your previous job satisfactory to you? Was it what you always wanted to pursue? What about the salary? Was it waaayy more than GEES’s allowance? Did Petronas offer you something that fits your dream career’s job scope? Or at least something along the lines, it doesn’t have to be exactly what you want now cause you can always climb your way up, but also sometimes our preference and interest just change over time. If you really wanna up your chances of getting hired, then you really gotta give it your all, good performance and luck of having vacancy in the department, and you might be getting some good news soon!

Hi. Can I know your job responsibilities later when you join them? I guess they told you during the interview.

I took the job because at that time I needed a job to sustain. It was a good offer, a graduate program actually. But it was totally unrelated to my field. The salary..was wayyyyyy more. hahaahaha. I was on probation, but had permanent staff benefits. Everything was good from the benefits to salary. BUT the field was never what i wanted. I am not performing in it even after 4 months.. but it was a good experience trying something out of my field. When i got the PETRONAS gees, I didnt think twice because working in PETRONAS was always my ambition. The positoin they assigned is abit baffling, project cost controller? But its okay, I am willing to learn and try my best..

Yeah honestly if you’re okay with the job scope, then I see no problem with it.. because personally, I would rather pursue something I’m passionate about and get less wage, rather than doing something that i hate but get a lot of money from it.. cause we’re gonna be working for a loongg time, not just a year or two.. but idk this is just my opinion, one person.. a random person on the internet 😂 you should also ask someone else who you trust too, like parents or friends

May i know what is the graduate program that you’re talking about? What company? Sounds quite interesting, I might apply for that if it suits me lol..

Have anyone received a reply from Petronas after sending back all the documents?

What is your background for them to assign u as a project cost controller?

my background is civil engineering.

i can PM u on this. duwan let my employer know im here

oh..its suitable for your background IMO..MS project, P6 primavera civil engineers must know how to operate.

In your opinion, after a year of training as project cost control, would it be easy to jump to another place as project engineer? Since it is still under the project management branch?

Im not qualified to answer your query. All i can say is project control falls under project planning, and to master planning i.e. understanding the project work flow etc. you need to be hands on i.e. being on site and learn the process e.g why task A require 3 days to complete why task B require 2 days to complete. From there you move up to become planner / project control then can become project manager since you already understand the process.
My take is that since you are new in the job market, to gain more technical knowledge, working with the vendors i.e. construction contractors (since your background is civil eng) is better in the long run to shape your technical competence.
Not saying working in pet is bad, its good but in the long run it grooms you to become manager but not a better technical person. What do managers do? they delegate, delegate & delegate. Not much technical competency is required depends on your skill group.
