Do you want your oil job resume to be read or not?

Of course you do, then tell them what they want to hear!

Cover Letter

This is vitally important as it catches the readers' attention helping them to decide whether to read your oil job resume, file it or throw it away.

The covering letter should be precise and to the point. It should guide the potential employer to your particular employment wishes.

Oil Job Resume

By now, you've probably mailed out some oil job resumes.

Add up the cost of the stationary, resume and envelope printing, putting resume in an envelope and mailing it - all this can really add up!

If you send it cheap, folded and stuffed into a regular sized envelope, you have no chance. Unfortunately, in the employers' eyes it will look unprofessional and probably won't even be read. To send your oil job resume in a full sized envelope so that it looks professional will cost you as much as $3.00 - just to send one nice professional oil job resume!

FACT - At $0.37 per stamp, in postage alone you would spend over $165 to send your resume to 500 of oil and gas employers! (Most people are unable to find 500 employers who want their resume).

The following is a typical example of oil job resume:

My name is < your name >. I am very keen to work in the offshore oil industry.

I am willing to start at the bottom and work my way up within your organization. I am therefore looking for a job as a Roustabout...

Please see my resume below.

Here are key phrases that offshore oil companies love to hear. Choose the ones that suit you best and include them in your cover letter:

• I like to fit in and get on well with people.
• I do not mind being away from home for long periods at a time.
• I can take and carry out orders.
• I can be left un-supervised to get on with my work.
