Am I suited for this kind of development?
Thread Content
I majored in Oil and Gas Storage and Transportation Engineering and graduated with a bachelor’s degree. I currently work at a small design firm, where I am involved in pipeline-related tasks. However, my foreign language skills are good – I have passed the CET-6 exam in English and the level 4 exam in Russian. Given the extensive energy cooperation between China and Russia these days, I’m thinking about moving towards a career in construction. There are no foreign projects at this design firm, so how can I find a better environment where I can make better use of my skills? Thank you
Construction work requires spending time outdoors throughout the year.
Well, as long as it can demonstrate my value, that’s fine. I think my current workplace is too idle; it’s just a place to waste time
At large state-owned enterprise design institutes, opportunities may not appear right away, but they will definitely come
Some people are too busy to have time to learn*, while others who are free don’t bother to learn*:lol
I’m not sure how many years the original poster has been working; if they are interested, they can come to our company. We are a manufacturer of skid-mounted equipment for oil field applications, and we have been working on projects overseas. The working language is English, and most of our projects are carried out in collaboration with international engineering companies, which often requires business trips abroad.
I wonder where your feelings lie? I work in equipment design and want to get into construction
We are in Beijing, and our job involves design, manufacturing, installation, and on-site commissioning – we have to handle everything in a comprehensive manner. The work is demanding; there are many issues that need to be dealt with, but it allows for rapid growth. After 3 years, there should be significant changes, both in terms of salary and experience.
Beijing is a bit far; I’m in Xi’an.
It’s better to stay at the design firm; construction isn’t carried out on a flat surface, you’ll understand this in the future
Right, once the construction starts you’ll regret it
