The Time is Now…

If you have yet to consider the energy industry as an industry to build a career in, to advance further, or perhaps you’re considering learning more about it—now is the time!

The OGM is at the heart of the industry, but most people don’t realize the vastly unique and diverse employment sectors the industry has to offer. Times are changing and so is the nature of the organisations. There is a cultural shift with an increased focus on work/life balance, additional training and development, focus on educational advancements, and compensation that allows you to sustain a lifestyle with an above-average Canadian salary.

The energy industry is hiring—corporations are looking for distinct and diverse individuals who don’t just ‘fit the traditional mold’ but instead bring new entrepreneurial flair and creativity to the table. Different perspectives are being valued.

One of the latest hiring trends across the industry is hiring new employees who are ‘entrepreneurial minded’. Yes, the industry is encouraging risk takers and creative thinkers like never before, because it is now believed the best way to sustain growth, innovation, and efficiency is by breeding creative visionaries.
