Involved in real civil engineering projects. Site exposure was excellent. Stipend around RM1,000. Culture is very professional and safety-conscious. Good for engineering students.
Big 4: better brand, more structured, better exit ops. Mid-tier: more hands-on work, clearer visibility of the whole process, sometimes better work-life balance. depends on your learning style.
Modern office, great tech stack (Cloud, AI). Good mentorship. Stipend RM800. Culture is a bit more hybrid than the main Petronas group. Excellent for CS students.
High-tech manufacturing, strict safety protocols. Great learning on process engineering. Culture is professional. Stipend around RM900. One of the best foundations for any engineering grad.
Very high intensity. real modeling work. Culture is competitive. Stipend RM1,500. One of the best brand names for anyone wanting a career in high finance.
Heavy on safety protocols, production line exposure, and quality reporting. Great for supply chain understanding.
Logistics operations exposure. Culture is GLC-paced. Team was friendly. Stipend was RM700. Decent for logistics or supply chain career.
Admin internship in the finance dept. Slower pace than corporate. Team was kind. I handled billing reconciliation and reporting. Interesting to see healthcare operations from the inside.
Different from corporate. Very mission-driven people. Sparse resources mean you learn to do a lot with little. Pay was RM500 (volunteering essentially). Rewarding if you care about the cause.
Expected glamorous design work. Reality: AutoCAD for 3 months, model making, and a lot of printing. But you learn the craft. The draftwork makes you faster and more precise. Important foundation.
Full ownership from day 1 which was terrifying and great. Built a campaign tracking dashboard that the team still uses. No formal structure so you have to be very self-directed.
Client pitches, campaign reports, content calendars, and analytics dashboards. Practical skills are high. Pace is fast. Agency culture is either great or chaotic. No in-between.
Very structured environment. Conservative culture. Good learning on trade finance and retail banking. Stipend was RM900. If you're heading into banking, the discipline you learn here is valuable.
Very competitive intern cohort. Actual modelling work. Long hours (10โ12hr days expected). RM2,500 allowance โ best I've seen. If you want IB, this is excellent experience.
Budget breakdown: RM1,500/month. Rent shared room: RM550. Food: RM400. Transport: RM150. Internet: RM50. Misc: RM100. Savings: RM250. Tight but doable if you meal prep and avoid malls.
Utilities company, very structured. Got assigned to a real engineering project. Site visits included. Safety culture is strict. Pay was RM800. If you're going into power or energy, solid baseline.
Companies expect fresh analytical skills and energy from interns but pay RM800. Some interns build tools that save thousands monthly. The wage hasn't caught up to the skill expectation.
At most companies, yes. Many graduate hires are converted interns. If you performed, they'll remember you. If not, they'll politely say there are no openings. Your intern reputation follows you.
Marketing internship. Good mentorship, structured programme. Brand is fun to work with. RM1,500 allowance which isn't bad. Real projects. Would be a strong retail/telco internship on any CV.
Corporate real estate and retail internship. Got exposure to tenant relations, lease management, and events. Quieter pace than startup. Team was professional. Good if you're targeting property or retail.
