the technical test (or aptitude test as they put it) is pretty basic engineering stuff. 45 questions, answer in 1 hour. nothing too complicated. just revise your thermodynamics on power gen a bit. i think someone said its SPM level? for me, fortunately most of the questions i can still somewhat remember what i learned in uni so it wasnt all that difficult.

the interview however, you definitely want to revise your power gen or at least thermodynamics. learn about how power is generated in power plants, and the main question during my interview was, how do coal fired power plants work. other than that it was quite laid back. interviewers (3 ppl, 2 engineer 1 hr) were quite friendly as well. got into stage 2, they said they will tell me the result this week.

edit: applied for graduate engineer position

its subjective, but most of the questions are 1-2 words answer. 1 hour should be plenty. i think there's only 2 stage. for me the first stage was the test and interview, 2nd stage online profiling test and essay. lemme guess, u went for an interview with prospect consulting first and just got an email to interview with the client (malakoff)?

i applied twice actually, one through the consulting firm, the other one direct. the direct application already got me the interview with malakoff (around 3 weeks ago) so i declined the one from the consultant. im also considering another place at the moment so malakoff isnt really that high on my priority list. good luck with your interview! another interview tips, try finding out other independent power producers in malaysia.
