    Won't most of the customers be O&G?

    To keep this slightly on topic, how goes the job hunt ES?
    Slow. I lost out on one good one, one other good one seems to be stalled out and may be no longer happening (been 7 weeks and I know they haven't interviewed yet). Have had a really interesting discussion with one multinational. No posting for that one, and if they pick me they won't be posting at all, they'd be making the role specifically for me. Been working this opportunity for about 5 years at this point. Probably a long shot, but I've been hired into roles made just for me previously, so never say never. The biggest benefit for this one is that it takes a weird skill "stack" that I happen to match perfectly. Would probably pay pretty darned well too, although base salary is not my primary driver these days.

    Waiting to hear from about 6 that I've fired resumes to, but It's really apparent that without a personal introduction to the hiring manager, your odds of getting a job from applying to a job posting are extremely low.

    Do you have a resume on the major job sites that employers can see? I've given up posting jobs and just search resumes now. I've had far better success this way.

    I have it up on a few, but just for the lurkers (who message me for advice) what ones would you recommend?

    Indeed at least. Mark yourself as available to work.

    Getting an employer account on these sites is arduous and it costs money to see resumes with contact information, so depraved a-holes can't just steal your stuff.

    My father-IL was randomly found by a employer who found his resume on indeed for an unposted job last week. Seems worth it.

    i agree with suntan, being able to search resumes has helped.

    I can't believe some of the instances that they choose to name people now. The poor idiot who said "vagina! Enormous breasts!!" during some virtual APEGA lunch & learn gets fully named because he doesn't know how mute works while most guys who couldn't size a PSV on a fuel tank get anonymity.

    "The Complainant alleged that the Registrant suggested that they should change
    their name to a more “anglicized’ sounding name to avoid losing customers"
