Writing your CV

When writing your resume it is important that your CV will be independent from the rest of the CV's and stand out, then you will have a great advantage over other applicants in successfully obtaining a job onboard an oil rig. Some ideas include a color picture or colored, well-presented paper.

If you have any questions on offshore oil rig jobs or general employment in the industry, please don't hesitate to get in touch with us.

Ensure that your resume is brief and includes all information that is relevant to the job such as training, experience and skills. The CV should include a brief description of your hobbies, interests and references from previous work. It is ideal to create the best impression for potential employers, so be sure your resume is spellchecked and all sentences are coherent.

If you are sending the CV yourself then be sure to add a cover letter that will clearly and briefly suggest why you want the job and what you can offer them as an employee. The following is an example of how a cover letter could read.
