I'm not the expert, but from word of mouth I think you pretty much need a degree to get into some of the entry-level training programs at the likes of Halliburton, Schlumberger, etc. Doesn't matter what the degree is in, or really even your grades sometimes.

entry-level training programs


Sorry I was a bit confusing. Some of the trainee level jobs I was referencing would be something like a technician trainee that would fix certain equipment or some trainee that would help move equipment to the site and help set it up. They didn't seem like they were a skilled trade or anything.

It seemed like very low level entry type positions for someone with no degree or experience, I just didn't know if you basically had to start at the very very bottom as a roustabout or if you could potentially start at something like that.
