Sharing my experience in the oil industry

[Trefusis25]

I've worked for several service companies and just like any other jobs, finding a job depends on your skills, experience, and connections. Many times, my bosses in different locations were people I had worked with before. in the Southeast Asia, the North Sea and even Canada.

I was never out of work for long. I took any job that came my way because to me, any job was better than no job, don't you think? hope this helps anyone here who plans to enter the industry.

I did a survey many years ago on the subject and most of the people who answered similarly to your comment. Networking and adaptivity seem to be essential in this niche and it's a good advice for anyone looking to get into this and succeed.

You've hit on some really key points!
It's true that even in specialized fields like service companies, the core principles of skills, experience, and connections remain paramount in job hunting.
And taking any job to avoid being out of work is absolutely a practical and solid strategy, especially when starting out or in leaner times!
Thanks for sharing this valuable perspective!
