It makes sense taking up a job in the energy sector the way we heading?

I was just asked to apply for a position in a fairly large company but I may also have a contract with them as a small contractor. Conflict of interest.

Thing is, I like the job, but the contract is a nice piece of money as they also said they are expanding and would need equipment I supply. Have contracts with other companies so I have side income. I wont be able to give my business the kinda attention I give it if I have a full time job. It even make sense taking up the offer?

No way for full disclosure and you do both?
I see people in some bigO&G companies and I am surprised by the compnies they own and get work right there.

I will ask HR.

But I wont get the amount of time to soend behind my business. Thats something I taking into consideration.
Plus I already have another job. I like this job though and they specifically said they need people like me. Esp since I grew up in the area and know every hole as well as the power supply. Havent met much of a problem I couldn't solve at my last job and was doing taska way above my pay grade. I was not authorized to work on 12kv and 6kv lines. Lost track on how much I worked on and at all hour the night.

I know, I tried applying but couldn't complete the process since they said I did not meet the minimum requirements for the position (as EI&C intern) but could also be because I attended UTT. As such, I'm still sharing it incase anyone else is interested.

Just cause they put out an ad, that doesn't mean they looking for people. Usually Graduate programs are reserved for the children or relatives of the high ranking people at the company...

I used to work there and every Graduate I met had a relative in there.
But this is usually the same policy in point lisas as well from my experiences...

Its called networking but basically bullchit as it has always been like this.

One of only places where there was fair employment was when Ispat was here . Those Indians only wanted the best grads , but it was hard work for them and Ispat made them work.

The company does not ONLY take UTT grads, they take people from UWI and if a company is looking for only UTT grads they would send the posting directly to the UTT alumini association for them to forward to graduates that are interested, instead of having to go through unwanted applications.

This could also be through, because I have applied to many companies for graduate programmes in order to get work experience at not once has my application been acknowledged nor was I ever contacted for an interview. I suppose getting through would involve you having the right links.

In the early days of PPSL, now IPSL, there was a time when Brian Manning, Carlos John's son, and Neil Jones daughter were there as interns.
