Generally, oil and gas-based companies have a set way of hiring people. As a recruiter, one needs to have the skill to coax the companies and make them believe what is going on in the job market today in their field by giving them facts and statistics of unemployment, and how new talents are emerging in the oil and gas field that could benefit them. How, by letting go of the old process, they can recruit better employees for their company.

2) Locate hard to find talent:

Do not give your company people who may provide saturated works to their employer. So, use social media recruiting to scan more and more people. Research about them and try to find out how they can be different and bring creative output to the companies.

3) Sales and Marketing Skills:

This skill is the exemplified tenfold now in the recruiting business. Not because you need to market yourself, but in order to recruit better, you need to brand up the company you are working for. You have to become the face of the company that you are hiring for. You need to be personable and be able to sell the company to the candidates.
