They also provide you vital information about the company such as their company size, headquarters, revenue and when they are founded. The main goal for this website is to provide you a good starting point whether or not that this company fits you. 1.1.2 Company’s value and culture. This criterion is one of the most important factors for me to consider when looking for a job. Personally, I prefer company that love to innovate in new technologies, hardworking, and most importantly helping each other to move forward in the industry. For you to learn about any company’s value and culture, you can visit their
Job specifications “identify the eligibility requirements or qualifications needed to perform a job” (Baack, et al., 2014, Ch. 4.4). Job specification can be defined as the profile of an ideal candidate. Job specification dictates the specifics of what is needed from the employee such as required amounts of experience, education, physical and technical abilities, as well as desired social skills. Job specification is used to screen the applications sent in by candidates, and job
3. Job analysis is the next step to consider the skills necessary for employees by job functions. To achieve the job analysis process one must consider the skills necessary for employees’ separated by job title or function. Employees can understand what the vital aspects of their jobs are by analyzing the entire job function and process. This process should include an explanation of primary job functions, how to produce them, and who is responsible for all parts, and the qualifications needed for all steps. Defining the key duties of each job function will benchmark all key elements to determine a systematic process. By identifying each job title or job function will allow management and staff to outline performance standards more
Choose one (1) company that you believe would be an ideal company to work for based on working conditions, salary, opportunity for advancement and work involved. Use the Internet to research.
As a company, their goal is to search for and find the most qualified applicants who are high-performing, highly motivated, and bring with them diverse experiences and talents.
Easy to attract quality applicants due to culture, profit share and Employee Share Purchase Plan, and decent salaries.
One of the last thing to check into is their reviews and ratings. You can do this by checking the company's social media page. There is a section on the page for people to leave their opinions of the company. Do they have good reviews then go with the company. If they have several bad reviews you know to keep looking. Another thing to check out while on their stoical media page is how the interact with their followers. Do they answer questions in a friendly timely manner or do they ignore the questions. You want to work with someone who is trustworthy and takes pride in their relationship with previous
I personally chose this company because I have first-hand experience of the environment as a former employee. I believe this job has extraordinary entry level opportunity and gives every employee an opportunity to build their
The company has a great culture with nice and friendly employees. They have a challenging and fun culture which balances competition, camaraderie, and teamwork.

The goal of selection programs are to capitalize on individual differences in order to select the applicants who possess the greatest amount of particular characteristics that have been assess to be the most important for job success (Cascio & Aquinis, 2011). This goal can be met by utilizing a classical approach to personnel selection. The classical approach to personnel selection starts with the job analysis. From the job analysis sensitive, relevant and reliable criteria are selected on a basis of importance to describe the job specifications that represent knowledge, skills, abilities and other characteristics (KSAOs) that potential applicants are desired to have for the job (Cascio & Aquinis, 2011).
Attractive to Potential Employees. Corporations are generally able to attract and hire high-quality and motivated employees because they offer competitive benefits and the potential for partial ownership through stock options (U.S. Small Business Administration, 2013).
The momentous step of venturing into the Graduate Program is towards the desired career in research and innovation. I chose Texas A & M University because of its meticulous research work, excellent academic faculty, and diverse student base. The research works by Dr. A Daniel Hill, Dr. Ding Zhu, and Dr. Hisham Nasr-El-Din have inspired and influenced my thinking processes. My research interest pertains to production engineering from scale formation evaluation, stimulation, to unconventional resources. I am also encouraged by Dr. Hascakir’s work in areas of asphaltene study and enhance oil
Petroleum engineers have a firm background in geology, mathematics, engineering, economics, and physics course work. Consequently, this means a petroleum engineer is qualified in extracting and producing hydrocarbons from subsurface sedimentary environment. "Petroleum engineers design and develop methods for extracting oil and gas from deposits below the Earth 's surface (Bureau of Labor Statistics).” There are always good and bad ways to accomplish responsibilities, and it is an engineer 's job to determine the safest and most economically sound method for success. The same thought process is applied when it comes to extracting hydrocarbons. Petroleum engineers "study geological and geophysical (UNSW, 2015)” maps to determine the most efficient methods to drill, and they will use reservoir simulators to help predict the economic value of the well. Over the years an increase in technology has helped the industry to create new ways to extract more oil from the reservoirs. The industry has helped to "...develop ways to inject water, chemicals,
