How long did you work field/in-house before you scored the gig with Andarko? Also, I guess one of my concerns would be job security. You have any input on that aspect?

If you are seriously looking to go the in house route, a PLRM degree from ULL will not do a great deal of good unless you have connections already. I graduated from there with the PLRM degree and at the time only one major E&P was recruiting for internships and that company is not longer recruiting there. Almost every person I graduated with is still an independent.

It's nearly impossible to get on with an E&P out of school without an internship with that company.

I had a couple years of field experience and 4 years in-house before going to Anadarko. I also had an offer from Conoco and Shell but I preferred the feel of working for an independnent. We recruit the PLM/Energy Management schools pretty hard but ULL isn't one of them. From what I've gathered, the majors love recruiting the Energy Management kids from OU. I work with a ton of then at my current job. We also hire a ton of attorneys from various schools. There is currently a need for 5-10 year in-house guys but not really for inexperienced ones.
