Re: Right and wrong way to apply!!!!
Sorry - know nothing about Oil and Gas, though that could have been different if I'd finished my Naval Architecture degree at Strathclyde Uni... anyways...
Clarendon Parker are the best recruitment agency around from what I hear and I know the company very well, offices across the region etc... (don't pay for CV doctoring - that's crazy)
HOWEVER - there really is nothing like coming here and setting up face to face meetings... that's how we did it - gave ourselves about 3 months budget and arrived with 2 bags. I got my job within 4 weeks. Still here after three years and now we have more cats than bags we arrived with and it would take a container to move us...
Anyways - don't think you're doing wrong, but consider planning a trip here if you're serious about a move here.
Good luck!

I was hoping to get out for the oil and Gas show that is on early next month, but due to work commitment here in Aberdeen I just wont be able to make it, but will certainly consider a trip soon.
