Matrixx 3rd Gear April 28, 2009 Share April 28, 2009 Hi bros... I just got a call to go for an interview for Asst Electricity Trader... but I don't really know anything much about the job... Hope any of you guys here got experience can give me some advice? Thanks in advance! I don't know if I'm right, but most probably this job is about liaising with the various electrical vendors (Seraya power, Tuas, Senoko, etc) to trade on electricity, i.e. buying of electricity from them. By the way, which company you going for the interview? PM me if it's inconvenient to reveal here 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karoon Turbocharged April 28, 2009 Share April 28, 2009 you will probably assist the guy who sets the half hourly price in the NEM. if you need reading up, this will be useful to impress the interviewers http://www.ema.gov.sg/doc/introduction_to_...ngapore_NEM.pdf but don't overdo it cos they probably chose you because they want a freshie without any baggage in the industry Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matrixx 3rd Gear April 28, 2009 Share April 28, 2009 Ya, I think the article from Bro Karoon is a very good article regarding the new energy market, especially after the de-regulation in the electricity sector. Basically, in industry with high electricity usage, say constantly 10MVA, it would be wise to package a deal with one of the electricity retailer to get a good price. Sometimes its about playing with the contracted and uncontracted capacity rates. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff69 Hypersonic May 9, 2015 Share May 9, 2015 Hi all, Recently place an ad for senior sales manager. One of the interviewee reason for leaving his current company was sales policies kept on changing. The interesting part was, during the interview, he showed me his sales targets and achievements and how he managed to increase sales over the years. The part is what do you think of someone who actually show you some private info of his company sales target during an interview but not in details , just very surface, like how much increase per year Can some bros share with me the different angles to look at it Thanks ↡ Advertisement 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
