It’s never a sin for you to dream big right? Oh well, at
least I’m trying. In my last post I’m having this really big thought of doing
Industrial Training at some big company but alas, I get none. It’s just some
big talk from me and the reality is it is hard to get into all of these big
companies after all.
And so here I am. It’s has been 3 month since I’m doing my
Industrial Training in this semiconductor company. This company/factory is also
known as ST Microelectronics Muar. It is located in, oh my! Isn’t it obvious
already? Muar, Johor of course. This company produced an Integrated Circuit
(IC) for cars, mobile phone, electronic devices and bla..bla..bla..
And so, how do I get
into this company?
It’s quite simple actually. You send your resume to their
Human Resource Department. Do it by post. I mean you send your application via
post (pos laju or etc.) and not by an email. Google for their address and sent
your resume away!
What? You said you’re too lazy to Google for their address?
Oh well, here you go;
Human Resource Department.
ST Microelectronics Sdn. Bhd.,
Tanjung
Agas Industrial Area,
P.O. Box 28, 84007 Muar,
Johor.
Is it easy for my
application to be accepted by this company?
Err.. I have no idea. But based on my experience, they will most
likely to accept your application since this company really loves to have
students to do their Industrial Training at their company. Plus, it’s in Muar,
so the competition to get in here is lesser. Oh! And one more thing is your
Industrial Training must be more than 3 month. Less than that, they will reject
you.
What do I learn
through my Industrial Training?
In this company, I guess there are a lot of things for you
to explore. From the prospect of learning process, working environment and the
real situation of work life, I would say yes! You will learn a lot.
What is my daily task
as a trainee?
Theoretically, all you need to do is to be your supervisor’s
assistant. Hence, what you need to do is to follow your supervisor for a task.
All of it is really depend on your supervisor. But practically, the workload
that you will have is not predictable. Sometimes, you will feel very busy with
lots of work to do but sometimes you will feel very bored to death!
How about the entire
employee and my supervisor?
Oh well, they are great! Yeah really! A bunch of a very nice
people surrounds you. Very kind to each other and a very healthy working
environment are being practice in here.
What is the working
time for a trainee?
Working time for all trainees is from 8.30 am until 6.15 pm,
Monday till Friday.
What about the allowance?
Oh! The crucial
part isn’t it. For degree level, every month you will get allowance up to
RM450. While for diploma level you will get RM 250 per month.
In conclusion?
I think this
company will serve as a great medium for you to learn more about working
environment (i.e. factory environment for sure) and such. And it’s become even
greater if you’re planning to permanently work in here since they will most
likely to hire you if you perform well during your time as trainee with this
company. But working in Muar? Mehhh! But it’s all coming down to your
preferences. If you are up to it, why not, right?
