Thoughts: Why is it so hard these days to land a good position with an excellent team in the oil and gas industry? This is for all personnel with experience. It should be easy, but it's not. They overlook you're experience and go with personnel who have never been in the industry. But if I look at a different industry to go into, they tell me that I have never worked in this field before, so here comes the rejection for the position! So please explain. What can a person do differently to land a good position?

Marketing experts make more than drilling engineers. Here are the US averages and does not include bonuses or shares: Average Drilling Engineer III makes $156,614 annually. Average Marketing Communications Director makes $193,371 annually. (Credit Salary.com) I want to be clear that this is not an ego post. There's a large discrepancy in the oil and gas community when it comes to prioritizing marketing. Industries outside of O&G pay much higher for marketing expertise. What I've noticed is O&G hires an inexpensive marketing major who ends up being a glorified admin. Why is that? I have some thoughts but I want to hear yours. 👋👋👋 Hey I’m Rick and I’ve been in the oilfield. I’ve worked rig moves, supported midstream engineering staffs and had countless roles in the pumping unit servicing business. I’ve been around Oil and Gas the majority of my career and I’ve picked up on a dire need: Better marketing for oil and gas service companies.

97% of people who come to your website are NOT ready to do business with you. This is why it’s so important that you have a way to capture their email. Using a creative and valuable lead magnet is the best way to do that. After the potential client has signed up for your lead magnet, you can then put them into a five step email sequence to build trust and close the sale. This is a sales funnel and the majority of oilfield service companies don’t use one. Want to know how to do it? I have a free resource for that in this blog below ⬇️ 👋👋👋 Hey I’m Rick and I’ve been in the oilfield.

When applying for Oil & Gas jobs, it’s best to always assume your reader knows nothing about what you do. It’s also best to stick to covering EXACTLY what they’re asking for - nothing more, nothing less. Sometimes when you go above and beyond what’s asked in a job description, you come across as overqualified rather than landing in the top 1% of candidates. It also means that you shouldn’t assume your audience knows that your technical background can translate to something else. When I’m doubt, spoon feed your reader what they need to hear. This means putting ‘10+ years of experience in regional drilling fluids technical sales’ in the top of your resume if the job description SPECIFICALLY requires these things. Yes, you may have 18 years of experience. But they’re looking for 10+ years of experience. And writing ‘10+ years of experience’ also allows your content to align more closely with the job description in an ATS. Hope this helps, O&G friends! #oilgas #oilandgas #jobseekers #petroleum #energy #energystrong #drilling

This is one of the better cold emails I've received in a while. (I usually get bad ones.) It's not perfect but I appreciated the following: 👊 It's easy to read and to the point. 👊 They talked about how they're qualified. 👊 They don't ask for the sale. Where it could improve: 👉 Make it more personal. Add my name and something they know I'm interested in. What's the best cold email you've received? 👋👋👋 Hey I’m Rick and I’ve been in the oilfield.

If you specialize in oil and gas asset management, then you need to keep these two things in mind when searching for a new job: 1) Numbers speak louder than words. Especially if you're interested in working for private equity firms, data will speak volumes when it comes to showing - rather than just telling - what sets you apart from the competition. And you WILL need to stand apart from the competition since this line is work is so competitive. Focus on quantifying ROI and break down your M&A project experience. 2) Your titles will be wonky. It will be rare for you to see a job title that's right on the nose and has 'asset management' in the title. Instead, many of your ideal titles may look like this: Senior Associate, M&A Director of Business Development Commercial Advisor Senior Manager, Strategy & Planning Typically, technical production and reservoir skills are mixed in as well. Have you run into this issue in your job search? I'd love to hear your thoughts! #oilgas #oilandgas #petroleum #jobseekers #energystrong

When do you need two resumes to hit an Oil & Gas job target? When you have technical AND management goals. For instance, a completions engineer might want to target high-level technical engineering roles as an advisor, SME or consultant. At the same time, they might also want to break into a management role where they need to highlight their skills in collaboration, supervision, and/or departmental direction. Sometimes you want to be more in the weeds and other times you’ll want to be more high level. The tricky thing is that if you try to walk the line between both with one resume, you may come across as a 50% fit for both types of roles. Have you run into this before? I’d love to hear your story! #oilgas #oilandgas #petroleum #engineering
