When I graduated in 2010 from a school down in Texas with a BS in Comp Sci, I was constantly being solicited for interviews with the big guys...Valero, Chevron etc.. These companies also had a very large recruiting presence at all the career fairs.
So at least at that time I know there was a need for development positions in this field. Just like most large companies there are plenty of internal tools that need maintenance and development.
- allsystemsgo 14y agoRight, I guess what I want to avoid is maintenance of some sort of reporting tool and make sure the role helps me learn about how a particular area of the industry works, to allow for some upward movement. I guess that's why I'm partial to data mining
- kyle_t 14y agoJust out of curiosity are you only interested in Oil/Gas or are you open to other fields as well? If yes how come? (purely out of curiosity, not judging either way)
- allsystemsgo 14y agoMainly because I know so many people in oil and gas though their roles are not technical, and because of my proximity to Houston.
