Thank you so much for this,but do they employ graduates from poly??

They sure do.

There is space for everyone my dear.
Just pray for God to make your own not pass you.

Just 2 weeks about 20 of us were nominated for an advanced fire fighting course, from Onshore/offshore.

When a list of personal details was passed i saw someone with school cert.
I just held my breath.

So my dear, all things are possible.

Wiinnd:
Oga do you know any Festus Osifo?? Dark Complexioned gentle man.

Be careful how you call names here please.
Different people are on this platform.

Very nice guy.
Selfless.
Humane.

elegantslayer:
can't u be of help since u work there

My dear, it doesn't work like that.
Different people with different experiences.

Some get In through contracts given to a 3rd party.
The 3rd party employs them, sends them to execute the job at the oil coy location.
While on the job, they meet with points/key men who takes interest in them, some are seen as being just too good/sound/smart/intelligent to be let go.
Few people like ladies or highly social fun loving guys melt the hearts of an oga who just likes their personality and wants them around so as to frolick together. This happens wella.

As the contract ends, the guy/geh is not let go, the key man finds him a very small, low paying job role that can still be accomodated within the Dept's budget till a better opportunity comes up.

This is where the God factor comes in.

Imagine having a friend within that same department whom you feel should be able to help, he can't do Nada. Because he doesn't have the power. He has superior colleagues who also have their candidates.
All of them just wakes up one day to see that the guy on a 6 momths terminal project is still here even after 2 years.
They all can't contest it because they knew the guy has been around, he is sound, dey love him and to top it up, they might even think he came from another location/dept within the organization.


Long story short, there are several angles to this.

But one thing I can tell you is that these companies do not do long leg thing when it comes to employing their permanent staff.
Once there is opportunity, they advertise it, set up test/interviews or highest they do internal adverts/conversion test so as to convert contract staff to permanent staff.

I keep advising people to be aggressive on job sites especially for the IOCs.
Visit total/shell/chevron/agip etc sites.
From time to time they do skeletal recruitments.
Even if it's for other affiliates outside Nigeria, keep applying.

Last week I saw shell advertising several openings for their Quartar affiliate.

For your information, there are a number of oil servicing firms that psy far higher than oil companies.
Talk of Schlumberger, Halliburton, Baker & Hughes, FMC now TechnipFMC, GE OIL, These are the big ones

Then smaller ones like AOSORWELL,Geoservices, Librod, Montego etc also pay well.

Finally,join LinkedIn, ensure you have a very captivating profile on there.
You can pay the right persons to do this.
Go premium i.e pay monthly/yearly subscription, see this as your own investment while you expect ROI.
Now this gives you exclusive access to certain previledges not enjoyed by normal members.
Some premium recruiters are sent profiles of premium members.
Some get called straight from LinkedIn, interviews conducted on skpe ,employment given,I mean foreign jobs.

If you want the above normal,do the extra ordinary too.
Nothing moves until you move.
At least let it be said, that you tried all you possibly can.

All the best to us in our search.

joshuaidibia:

halimzytohfresh:
will surely work here #AGIP in sha Allah...

wait oo..can a graduate of cyber security science get job in an oil and gas company??

Why not, remember there is a department for Information Technology.
Different companies with different nomenclature for this department.
This department encompasses specialities/professionals like:
Hardware engrs, software developers, SAP experts & Consultants, network & Security, User support services/intervention team, Help desk etc.


Please be informed that these companies employ more contracted personnels than permanent staff.
If you have a staff strength of say 3000, be rest assured that about 2500 are contract staff.

Now,contract self get levels.

Some are mere service contract while a few are labour contract and each has its own perculiar benefits.
Most times when soveniers are shared, they are shared to every one not minding your category.
Every one is also entitled to meal/meal ticket which you can convert to cash or use for shopping at staff coop supermart.
In some oil companies first oil benefits are given to mostly permanent staff and maybe labour contract.
This ranges from 500k to 3.5m per person.
This is cash shared for producing the first oil at a location onshore/offshore.

Even as a contract staff, if you are not greedy, you are a good manager of resources you can easily live an enviable life I tell you.

All in all,the oil industry is a place to be.

theoldpretender:
Yes...only on the 'who will they sell NNPC too'....which is a valid question.

Not just on who will they sell NNPC to, but also on the % to sell.
He favours the sale of BTW 41 to 51%, while Atikuloot wants to sell a whole 90%.

Trust me, Nigertia will regret selling 90% of NPPC if Atikus plan is implemented.

As much as there is so much money being wasted, so much scam happening in NNPC, it still pays Nigeria more.

A bulk of the money shared monthly amongst the Federal/state/LGAs comes from NNPC.
Any month NNPC under declares her income, wahala done dey be that.

Partial sale (40-50%) , Yes.
Not 90% as proposed by Artikuloot,

Absolute rubbish.

Why create new Institutions when you cant even fund the existing ones.

Alejof:
I see things!

Be there be seeing things that are not as though they were.

Purplekush:
I read everything too as I always look out for the bad deals to avoid. Well, the first step is to have a laptop and an internet enabled phone. If you have those 2 down, you should be then start looking at the startup capital which should be anywhere around 50 to 150k. Not much when compared to the tradition brick and motar biz models.

Get these down and then we can talk more. today alone I got like 11 orders of a 21k product. And I'm still a learner in my niche

Wow. Nice one
