Thankfully, I got a job that pays much more. My advice for the AC is just be prepared to wayang a lot-- they like those who display a positive attitude.

Haha completely agree with you on this one. My course mate & I experience this first hand last year as well. Their so call positive posing is really ridiculous compared to other
ACs.
During break when I was chatting to some of the staff there, I sensed they are a bit deluded pie in the sky type - they seem to genuinely think that they are the best paying company and everyone is just dying to get in. There was this guy who told me he used to be from government and went on and on about how Shell is so much better. I was thinking in my mind you should be comparing to other top MNC, how come keep comparing with government?
During AC, I could tell all the candidates were trying their best to act like CEO/CFO when they don't have a farking clue what they are talking about. I stumbled in the first part because I thought they were like other
ACs looking for actual team leadership and how you organize things efficiently.
The subsequent parts I learn from mistake just unleash one bombastic CEO phrase after another, i.e. just try to remember as many academic sounding buzz words you learn during school and next thing I know HR inform me I passed the AC. What a joke!
As for pay I don't know cauz I wasn't offered anything despite passing the AC (wasting my time really), but anther distant acquaintance told me it was 3.3k which if true is really a joke and even below a civil service offer.
