Yes, you have to leave if they don't convert you to permanent. If you want more info, you know what to do (Read: ask me in private).

Not necessarily. It doesn't matter if you're a high performer with a Department Level Award (quite a high level award in PDC) given to you during your tenure as a GT, no headcount to convert means you tapau and go home.

seems like there are different version of stories around..

Intel Penang Design Center will be holding a career talk and walk-in interview in MMU tomorrow.

if u are good they will take u in rather then ask u leave..unless u not there gang or cant perform then just back KL..Look for new job at there..

Whether or not a GT can be converted to a regular employee will depends on 2 conditions:

1) The performance of the GT
2) The overall hiring restrictions (if any)

Condition 1 must be fullfilled.
Condition 2 is out of your control, during bad times, no department can do any hiring, unless the hiring managers get approvals from very-very-very senior management. No hiring manager is willing to do that unless you are super-super-super bright.

This is not unique to Intel. Many factories (particularly American ones) are also doing the same by hiring fresh grads as GT or contract workers first.

Hi, Anyone knows how much a senior manager in Design Centre earns? I am just curios because one of my relatives works there.

That is true!!

so how was the career talk and interview held in mmu?

Snr Manager Design cnetre maybe around 20k per month bcoz Snr Manager manufacturing adly earn 15k so those designer will earn around 20-30% more..

Recently I get an offer of EGT program (Analog IC Design).
But I saw a lot of unknown and question in this program
Cause Intel ppl even the person in charge can't confirm for everything in this program.
So any comment about this program?
The chance of getting hired after the contract end is low?

hi there...from what i seen on this threat, there seems to be many people are unhappy with GT program especially a lot of them cant seem to get hired after the contract ends..i wish to get that clarified also to be frank

hi guys, wana ask how much is a senior engineer pay in intel, say with 6-7 yrs experience? thx

Snr Engineer got many dept..depends which dept you go. some may get 6-7k if you been hired. some even get 8-9k...

Anyway good luck.

For GT program depends luck. If you are lucky you can be convert to their acct. Luck,timing and people is make sure right on it.

thanks bro. my field is more on factory process/equipment instead of design. so 6-7k is average i assume.

Hey guys, I am a fresh grad.

I just got the chance for an interview on 15 June later for the post of Community Affair Manager. If I got the offer, I will be working with Intel but my hiring company is actually NCS IS Sdn. Bhd.

I got this job opportunity coz of my friend's friend is looking for candidates for this post.

I got call after an hour I sent out my resume. Any opinion on this? I will be interviewed by Dr Siek in PG9.

Wow manager for a fresh grad ur a fresh grad from masters i assume? Well im an ex-NCS intel staff but my side is more to technical part. My advice is to request higher salary from NCS if you're contract base. Then as a green badge u're not entitle for any privillage that blue badges have. Facilities such as gaming room, gym is not allowed for green badges.

Added on July 5, 2010, 1:04 amBtw.. would like to ask, any Intellers from IT department here? I got a called from Intel HR asking me about a training job. It's a 6 months training with allowance and after 6 months might be converted into Permanent staff. During the 6 months im there i'll be a blue badge staff. She's not sure bout the actual position because there's a lot of position in IT dept. She said she'll pass my resume to the hiring manager. Anyone knows bout this? And how high is the possibility of being converted into permanent staff?

Hi Scott,

How's it going to the Community Affair Manager position?

Hi Alex, I guess you're my friend's friend? O_O~ Didn't know you're here!

I passed the interview and they said they are gonna hire me. But I am still waiting for the black and white to be ready. THanks.

Added on July 5, 2010, 12:45 pmErm, the post is a new post and nobody is actually working under me, so no big deal to have the title as a manager. I am just a Bachelor's Degree graduate, not Master's.

I am not sure about how much others receive there but I cannot complain much as a fresh graduate and the salary they offer is within the range I was asking. I know as a green badge I can't enjoy the perks like lunch allowance and also bonus from them. But I take it as I want to learn from MNC though. It's good for my future.
