Five years have passed, and Brazil is starting to overcome the crisis in the oil and gas sector, and the demand for professionals with technical and higher education is being requested by major companies in the sector. Sign up! 50 job openings for high school and higher education to work at the multinational General Electric
In 2020, 4,500 new jobs will be created in Rio de Janeiro, only in the area of exploration and production (E&P), according to studies by Firjan, in addition to doubling the volume of jobs in exploration, production, and drilling activities in 2022.

But be aware that if you are hoping to re-enter the oil and gas market and receive one of the highest salaries in the country, you will need to invest in qualification, said Firjan’s Oil, Gas, and Naval Manager, Karine Fragoso.
Although salaries in the oil and gas market are on average six times higher than in other industrial activities, it requires that the professional be very well qualified. Knowing how to speak English is currently a significant differentiator, as most companies are multinational.
For each new direct job in the oil market, eight opportunities are created in the so-called multiplier effect, explains Karine. This means that with the recovery of the segment in Rio, the expectation is that new positions will also open up in logistics, manufacturing, retail, hospitality, among others.
