Make your career connection at ACE in Houston! The
AAPG Career Center is THE place to find your next job or next qualified
geoscientist! Our Career Center recognizes that job seekers and employers within
the industry are looking for opportunities that maximize their resources
at
the same time limits the amount of time they would otherwise spend searching for
each other. AAPG’s reputation makes this a logical and reliable resource for
employers and job seekers within our industry.
The Career Center offers a variety of resources for attendees to connect with
employment opportunities. Bring your resume and/or job listings to the Career
Center and post on our bulletin board at no charge. While all attendees may post
their resume on the bulletin board, AAPG members have the additional benefit of
posting their resumes on our Online Career Center for maximum industry exposure.
Volunteers will be onsite to assist with this process, as well as schedule
interviews, assist companies with posting jobs online or review resumes (with
paid package), and establish times for company representatives that wish to
occupy a table and
meet job seekers that visit our onsite Career Center.
