Now they hire experienced and/or straight out of tech. schools thru an internship program. We get a lot of interns who want to work offshore, but end up not taking the work cause of the 14/14 schedule. Shell has a Skill Based Pay system. You have to prove you can do more than one craft in order to move up. If you only do I&E work, you won't make more money. You have to be willing to cross train in other crafts. It is a pain, but the pay is worth it, if you get hired on. We get a lot of contract workers who get on thru the experienced hire process. But that is about once a year. The internship hire process is done year round. We will be hiring around 50 experienced hires and 40 thru tech schools this year, and about the same next year. shell.com/us |

Thanks for the feedback Ray. If I would do special projects it would be in houston for 2 years working a 9/80. I don't like the Houston or the 9/80 part, but I think it will be a great learning experience.

You should try to work my schedule. It is called can till can't. In the service industry there is no schedule. You go on a job and unless you have some prior engagments you stay from start to finish of the job. Granted you are ampley compensated,but it would be nice to not have to work that long. I am currently in Trinidad and I will be looking at a rotation of 35 and 35. Out of that you travel on your time. You have to think about your time at home and don't swet the time you are at work. That is what I think.
