Somewhere I read that 90% of jobs are never posted anywhere.
Every job I have ever gotten including a few restaurant jobs and a job as a univerisity tour guide has been because I knew someone inside who handed my resume to the person doing the hiring to get an interview.
I do not believe the O&G is any different than other industries.
