Hi all, i was interviewed on friday and woke up on saturday to a letter with an offer of employment! It was last feb i applied so was shocked that i was even offered an interview!

I told them upfront that i had provisionally accepted a position with another subsea company as a mechanical tech, so they told me they would let me know asap if i was successfull.

Im over the moon, good luck to all who are being interviewed this week and ill hopefully be seeing some of you at the beginning of march Smile

I have 10 years experience as a mechanic, city & guilds lev 3, various other electrical & hydraulic courses over the years, as i worked on alot of agricultural gear and when CAN-BUS and fibreoptics were introduced to cars I had to be trained in these areas. The past year or so I have been offshore in Denmark working as a hydraulic tech/mechanic. I know I still have lots to learn and I was very clear about this at interview, but I love a challenge and the whole subsea industry is something that fascinates me. However seeing as I applied last JAN/ FEB I'm pretty sure I had no offshore experience on my CV at that point, only motor trade experience. I honestly think it was fluke I was selected for interview, either that or I narrowly missed last years intake of trainees and they kept my cv on file...I have no idea!
Has anyone else heard back from Interviews?
Sorry for the essay above!

Your background sounds a little like mine, mechanics c&g 3.
I then moved into electronic systems for the last 17 years with some hydraulics included, so thanks for updating us on your skills, it gives me new hope!
I applied to Fugro for this intake but as of yet have had no reply either way.
Don't know quite what to make of it as I see some people have received rejection letters?
Anyway enjoy your new start and thanks for the boost of hope!

Mike,

you said on another thread you were offered a position with Bibby but turned it down. I'm afraid you cannot afford to be picky, you should have taken the job if only for a year or two just to get experience on your CV.

Yeah, hope everyone who got one of these positions enjoys it. I was too slow off the mark to even apply for one of them before the closing date haha. Good luck guys, I'm sure it'll be great.
