How do i go about getting a job on an oil or gas rig?
Hi Dave, You would need to find out the name of the Rig Operators/Owners and write to them. This means that you would make a Speculative Job Application and specify that you are interested in unskilled work on a drilling rig. or, You could ask that they send you an application form. Meanwhile, gather together all or any school/college or university certificates along with employment references and make copies. Never send original documents with a job application. You can always say that you will produce the originals at a job interview. You should also visit your local library and seek books on the subject of Job Search, Resume Preparation and writing cover letters. You may get help on making Job Applications at your local Job or Welfare Centre. Best wishes.
