By building a detailed profile on our site we are able to match you instantly to positions posted by over 2000 recruiters. Your profile also becomes your own free online CV / Resume that you can link to from all over the Web. Candidate profiles are visible to Search Engines and a special link can be used to give recruiters full access to all your contact details and employment documents for free.
Oil and Gas People has been created by people who work in the oil Industry, who have experienced firsthand the flaws with traditional oil and gas job sites. Our model means you will never miss out on suitable positions again. By simply updating your availability at least once every 60 days, your profile will stay live on the site and be instantly matched to positions you meet the requirements for.
How our match process works
When recruiters post a position on our site they also set their candidate requirements. Recruiters can state basic candidate preferences such as location, qualifications, experience and certification. More advanced options allow them to search candidates by previous job title, areas they are authorised to work, language skills, previous companies worked for and by keywords.
After positing positions recruiters are given a preview of suitable candidates returned in order of those who are the most accurate match. We only automatically return candidates who are live on our system having updated their availability in the last 60 days. It means recruiters don’t have to waste time trying to work out who is available and candidates don’t receive lots of cold calls when they are not looking for work.
