well im graduating from A&M (BS in mechanical/ manufacturing engineering technology) and looking for an engineering job.

im pretty flexible as to the kind of job, oilfield jobs interest me.

i live in cypress so somthing on the west side is prefered.

my TS SCI clearance should be going through soon so somthing that uses that would be a plus.

thanks

Brook, Mechanical Engineering or Mechanical Engineering Technology?

ME's and MET's will typically have different opportunities available and different starting salaries.

My company is hiring entry level ME's (offshore oil/gas installation contractors). I can ask about MET's

alot of the jobs ive been looking at were looking for ME ( well thats what they posted/said) and my degree has been fine.
pay is aboutthe same also

theres not alot of difference in the 2

Actually, there is such a company. Powerchoke is near 290 and Huffmeister and is (or was) owned by a couple of aggies. They're a small company and I understand that they've been bought up by a larger company. But the owners are still there I believe.

There's alot of companies on the NW side:

Weatherford (FM 529)
Oceaneering (next door to Weatherford)
Baker Hughes (290 and beltway, a new facility)
Varco (West Little York)
Stewart and Stevenson (Telge and 290)
Cooper Cameron (Beltway 8)

Theres tons more but those are the ones I can think of right off the top.

if its down in the clear lake area i think id have to pass. that would be one hell of a drive. ive been driving to college station every morning for school ( 1 hr drive) and it would be great to find something close for a change

Oceaneering used to be in Magnolia right? or is that another location of theirs?

as for moving, that wont happen unless its a really nice 6 figure income.

What are graduates getting these days? I've heard 55k but I've also heard as much as 80k.

aggiez28

iTrader: (19)

i would say 55-80 sounds about right. the kind of job is going to have a big part to play there. offshore jobs tend to pay quite a bit better.

the company I work for starts out fresh grads in the $50-55K range base salary, but the bonus plan is in the 15-20% range, plus offshore time. Offshore oil/gas industry rules
