The interview process at Ranhill was quite challenging, especially considering my background was primarily in railway infrastructure, not in airport or BHS (Baggage Handling System) environments. During the interview, I was asked in-depth technical and situational questions that were specifically related to KLIA airport operations, which were new to me at the time.
I was upfront about my lack of direct experience with BHS and airport-specific systems, but I emphasized my strong foundation in M&E works and my 17 years of experience in the construction sector. I also highlighted my proven ability to adapt and learn quickly on the job.
Despite not having airport background, I believe the panel saw my potential, wide-ranging project exposure, and strong problem-solving skills. I shared examples of how I quickly adapted in previous roles and how I consistently handled complex issues under pressure. That helped me stand out.
Overall, the process was tough, but it pushed me to reflect on my capabilities and reinforced my confidence that I could contribute meaningfully to the project—and I’ve proven that through my performance since joining.
