Why not? You can if you believe it ! Those doing it there are not better than you. Or are they from Mars or Pluto? Send in your letter to them and see wonders if you got the faith |

IsaacNewton869: Yes you can. Keep an eye out for when the IOCs start accepting applications for internship, prepare a good cover letter, your cv, make sure you have good grades. Acceptance is usually based on merit. Good luck 3 Likes 1 Share |

IsaacNewton869: . Yes you can by the special grace of God almighty. If u r 'super intelligent' and u follow d right steps, there'd definitely be a slot for u. Those companies value integrity. They take in a lot of persons based on MERIT. Others can come in through slots like "host community considerations/compensation". And finally, the well connected ones I wasn't super intelligent. Just average. I wasn't from a host community. No connections. Hence, I didnt get such opportunity when I tried. Did a lot but it didn't work even though I studied petroleum engineering. Hopefully, someday... God's light would shine on me. The needed connection would locate and connect me to place of grace. But in the meantime, I'm keeping busy/paying off d bills through copywriting , making of telegram bots and trading bots, logo and Flyer design, and sales of premium softwares like: Grammarly premium, Quillbot, Canva pro, turnitin, VPN, etc |

You can get an internship placement with any of these companies if you have a good grade in school and also if any of them comes to your school to conduct an internship aptitude test in order to select students for internship. You can also get a job with them without knowing anyone. I work for one of these majors in Nigeria although I won't mention the particular one. However,the most important thing you need to focus on now is working on your grammar, diction and tenses as you can't get a placement with any of them with what I read up there unless you're connected to the who-is-who in Nigeria. Also have it in mind that the best you can get as a job with these oil majors , with heavy connections, is a contract position. They don't compromise on quality while recruiting their core staff. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Young man, you can get a placement in any of the oil companies without connection ( but not really). You need to be a scholar - if your HOD or Dean recommends you, based on your CGPA, people tend to respect that and would give you a chance. If you are an average student, why do you think you should get a place before a scholar? If you are average then you must be exceptional at something even if it is just sweet talking. |

3, do oil company employ geologist and geophysicist as an explorer or a drilling engineer You could be employed as either though you often would be taken as an explorer. 4, who did they need most between geoscientist (petroleum geologist, geochemist, geophysicist as an explorer, geological engineer, reservoir geologist) and Engineers ( chemical engineer, mechanical engineer, civil engineer and electrical engineer) Who do they employ most Thanks Oil companies need all skillsets - yet engineers are mostly preferred for their versatility and high numeracy. Of course, there are more engineering projects going on from pure building and civil works (don't let the name fool you - all engineers are need here) to drilling and operations to facilities, pipeline etc. 1 Like |

Back in 2006, when I did my IT at ExxonMobil Qua Iboe terminal Ibeno, it was possible. You only had to pass the aptitude test which was hellish and almost impossible. What you can also do is find local oil services companies that do jobs for Total, Mobil, Shell etc and voila! you're in. 2 Likes 1 Share |

IsaacNewton869: Short answer: NO! Long answer: These companies are highly sought out by fresh graduates, and the sad reality is that graduates less qualified than you are probably going to get the jobs at such companies if they are connected to well placed people. My Advice: Don't give up your hope to intern at ExxonMobil but at the same time be realistic and expand your options to include less exalted companies. |
