ExxonMobil Corporation

Exxon Mobil Nigeria is hiring graduates for the 2011 Global Geoscience Campus. The locations are: Australia, Canada, Germany, Indonesia, Libya, Malaysia, Nigeria, Norway, Russia, United Kingdom, USA
2011 GLOBAL GEOSCIENCE CAMPUS

They are looking for a diverse group of talented geoscientists with the ability to integrate knowledge, ideas and skills to solve geologic problems across exploration, and production functions; Judgement and speed in application of geoscience tools and techniques; and, a desire to maintain their competitive advantage through advanced training and superior technological understanding.
They Need Exploration and production geologists and geophysicists
ExxonMobil is interested in finding outstanding scientists who have a strong fundamental background in the earth sciences, physical sciences, and mathematics. We have excellent proprietary capabilities in teaching petroleum science and technology, and therefore do not require new geoscientists to have any prior petroleum course work or experience.
There is, however, a requirement for demonstrated leadership, adaptability, teamwork, excellent communication skills in English, and a commitment to high safety and ethical standards. The company regards its global and long-term approach to hiring and career development as the foundation of its future success as a company, and as a source of great opportunity for scientists who want to grow their skills and capabilities for a long-term career.
Opportunities for Researchers
Geo science careers with Exxon-Mobil also offer the opportunity to perform basic and applied research in seeking new ways to find and recover petroleum supplies.
Our research programs reflect exploration and production business strategies; for example, pursuing attractive exploration opportunities, developing production from new fields, and maximizing economic recovery from existing fields. We maintain close relationships with Exxon-Mobil operating organizations around the world. A primary means for transferring technology to Exxon-Mobil operations is through research applications in which results of recent research are applied to a wide range of exploration and production problems.
In many cases, these technical experts are made available to Exxon-Mobil operating organizations through temporary or regular assignments.

Fresh Graduates, OND, HND, BSc Jobs Search: Education & Learning

Hi, How are you treating life?
As I was preparing to give you the latest jobs in Nigeria, I stumbled upon these Vitamins for minds from one of the people that I respect alot.
If all you can do is to digest these words, I assure you that you will get your dream job very shortly.
To your success.

Education & Learning

Formal education will make you a living; self-education will make you a fortune.
We must learn to apply all that we know so that we can attract all that we want.
Learning is the beginning of wealth. Learning is the beginning of health. Learning is the beginning of spirituality. Searching and learning is where the miracle process all begins.
If someone is going down the wrong road, he doesn't need motivation to speed him up. What he needs is education to turn him around.
Don't see the mind for more than it is, but don't misread it for all that it can be.
Sharpen your interest in two major subjects: life and people. You will only gather information from a source if you are interested in it.
Education must precede motivation.
While you are in school, make sure you get the information. What you think about it, that's up to you. What you are going to do with it that will soon be up to you. But while you are there, make sure you get it. In fact, my advice is � Don't leave school without it!
Never begrudge the money you spend on your own education.
If you step up the self-education curve, you will come up with more answers than you can use.
