Here's how you can explore entry-level positions in the Oil and Gas sector.

For entry-level positions, it's important to understand the job requirements and align your interests accordingly. Additionally, ensure you've reviewed your fundamentals and possess a strong grasp of your subjects.

Recuerdo mi entrevista, no estaba preparado cuando ingresé a la industria petrolera, la honestidad es un factor importante, claro se debe cuidar al comentar acerca del proceso, en cual tu quieres participar que por eso debes documentarte bien, para se denote tu interés en participar en ese proceso y hasta donde estás dispuesto a llegar por cumplir con las metas y objetivos planteados.

Sometimes when we look for a job we don't do things in the right order, for example, we design a CV and then we look for a job. Maybe it is better to ask yourself what type of job you want to look for, then you research the skills required for that job and try to get them and finally you design your CV. This way it is likely that you will have a better chance of finding the job you want to apply for.

Muito importante também conhecer o mercado e o posicionamento das empresas que vai bater na porta. Empresas internacionais contribuem também para conhecimento de nova língua e novas culturas.

For entry level position, you will do well to have a good knowledge of the theory of your profession. Since you don't have experience at this point, your strongest selling point is the knowledge. Then develop good emotional intelligence. Learn how to work amicably with teams and know some basic information about the company and the role. Figure out you intend to perform those roles even without your experience and convince the interviewers as much as you can

Conectarse de manera inteligente tanto dentro como fuera de la organización, aplica también a dirigirse de manera auténtica y humilde, sabiendo de nuestras propias limitaciones. No querer aparentar experiencia o conocimientos que recién estamos adquiriendo.

Start your career by becoming indispensable in your entry-level role through hard work and specialized skills, making it difficult for the organization to function without you. As you progress, you'll likely lead a team—treat them with respect, understand their strengths, and provide opportunities for their professional growth. By fostering a supportive environment, you'll help your team excel while advancing your own career, positioning yourself as a valuable leader within the organization.

Ganhar experiência prática na indústria de petróleo e gás é essencial para uma carreira bem-sucedida. A experiência permite aplicar conhecimentos teóricos em situações reais, desenvolve habilidades práticas, e oferece oportunidades de networking. Ela também proporciona uma compreensão profunda das operações diárias e fortalece a confiança e a capacidade de liderança. Essa combinação de teoria e prática torna o profissional mais competitivo e preparado para as demandas e oportunidades do setor.

My vote goes to volunteerism here. It's worked for me with the Society of Petroleum Engineers but there are other professional organizations within the industry also. You generally have to apply AND be accepted for internship and apprenticeship positions. Not so with volunteering! Just show up with the right attitude and you will gain leadership experience that can tick all those boxes that are asked for in job descriptions that ask for 5 years of experience for graduate positions :p
