Best oil and gas job boards 20175 min read

Renewable energies are gradually replacing fossil fuel, especially because the available ressources are running out (fossil fuel is the energy produced by the burning of coal, oil or gas). However, it remains a sector that still provides employment. In this article, we will give you an updated ranking of the best oil and gas job boards in 2017, specialized in the energy sector (all types of energies as well). Of course, remember that you can find offers for this sector on generalist job boards. But sometimes, you can have a much more efficient recruitment campaign or a more successful job search if you use a specialist job board that will connect you with the most adapted candidates or recruiters.

1. Rigzone – United States

This is not a surprise: Rigzone is still the best job board specialized in oil and gas sector jobs in 2017. It is the leading website that covers the United States but also the UK, the United Arab Emirates, France, Singapore, Qatar, Brazil, Saudi Arabia, Australia, Vietnam or Mexico and it has around 1 million visitors per month.

3. Chemie.de Karriere – Germany

In third position we have the German job board Chemie.de, which is not only a job board but a ressource for information about the chemistry sector.

This national job board is not specialist for the oil and gas industry, however, you can definitely find offers for the sector, in the “Chemie” section. Note that as it is a national job board, the website is only available in German, so this might not be very helpful for international users. However, we don’t doubt that with more than 1 million visitors per month, Chemie.de is a very efficient job board in Germany, for both recruiters and job seekers.
