Petronas' GEES training boosts prospects


Rodhiah (seated) and Azilah are among the graduates who have successfully found employment after their GEES stint at Petronas.

WITH nothing more than a Mechanical Engineering degree in hand and her future hanging in the balance, Siti Rodhiah Lamree took a bus from Kunak on the east coast of Sabah and travelled westward to Kota Kinabalu on a road trip that would later prove to be one of the most important in her life.

It was not a journey of a thousand miles; it was just about 460km but throughout the long and winding road, she kept on rehearsing in her mind the interview she was about to attend in the state capital.
