QUOTE(nanogen @ Apr 19 2010, 05:48 PM) Hi guys, I have been wondering that when Intel hire u as an engineer (fresh grad), you will join as a permanent staff but in probation period or have to to through the graduate training program first. Fresh grads are hired as Graduate Trainees (I'm talking about Intel Penang Design Center, not sure about other organizations in Intel Penang). It's a 1-year contract, with NO GUARANTEE, at all, that you'll be converted to a permanent staff. It all depends very much on headcounts that they're willing to open up to convert GTs to permanent staffs. Right now, they want to hire senior people with many years and relevant experience because Intel PDC is too overloaded with young people (either fresh grads or fresh-grads-turned-permanent with 2-3 years experience only). Chances for conversion to permanent is not high now. |

QUOTE(nanogen @ Apr 20 2010, 08:03 PM) So is it saying that it is not worth joining Intel right now since the chances of converting to permanent is quite low now? Only you can answer the question. If you want long term career advancement, it might not be a good idea since you're not guaranteed to be converted to a permanent position. |

QUOTE(nanogen @ Apr 20 2010, 09:20 PM) I actually wish to develop me career in Intel but what worries me is that they won't convert me into permanent after GT. Does it mean that I have to leave Intel if they do not convert me to permanent? Since I am staying in KL and I got to go through some trouble to look for room to stay in penang 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). QUOTE(johnjenin @ Apr 20 2010, 09:27 PM) if you from KL, they should offer you relocation fee which is ur one month salary. but not sure this allowance still apply in 2010. better check with HR. Intel might extend your GT period if the manager still interested with you if there is no permanent position available. its all depend on your performance. all the best! 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. |

QUOTE(thesoothsayer @ Mar 10 2011, 06:36 AM) I think you could do a lot worse than Intel. Don't worry, people there like to b****. I've friends there saying they want to quit all the time, but they'll be collecting their 10th year service award later this year. And many of my former colleagues who have left Intel tend to return after 1 or 2 years outside. I think it's probably the best MNC in Bayan Lepas. I kinda miss Intel after quitting. If I were a Penangite, I won't be working anywhere else... Anyway, I was a GT. I guess I haven't experienced the worst  |
