Your Career in Your Hands
Risks and Opportunities in 2006
In recent years, the engineering and construction job market has
become more and more candidate driven. With skills in the technical
sector in shorter and shorter supply, major projects and hiring companies
are increasing aware of the importance of good candidate management.
As a professional in our industry, demand for your skills grows
ever greater and there are many options available to you in managing
and driving your own career.
One of the major changes in the way employers operate in the search
for key skills is the rise of technology solutions. Traditional methods
of recruiting, with small networks of relationships grown from personal
contact are becoming redundant in the global market. It is no longer
practical for engineers to rely on personal relationships alone to
guarantee themselves access to the most lucrative contracts or significant
career moves.
EPCglobal have been at the forefront of development in bringing
the engineering community closer together, increasing the efficiency
of our clients’ search for experienced professionals and empowering
our candidates to find new opportunities and be found directly by
the businesses that need their skills so urgently.
The danger for professionals in this industry is not an absence
of opportunity, with such sustained investment in infrastructure
across the world, but rather in the risk of missing the perfect opportunity
simply by being unaware of it. Today, thousands of engineers are
not fulfilling their true earning potential. Thousands more have
not advanced to the level of responsibility and recognition that
their skills deserve. Access to all relevant and available information
is crucial. It is not enough to know that projects are underway,
nor is it enough to have a vague understanding of market rates. It
is vital to gain a clear picture of the industry in detail, to know
who exactly is looking to hire you, what you could be doing at this
stage in your career and what you should expect to be earning.
Epcglobal.com is now the only fully integrated recruitment solution
available to professional engineers that combines the infinite reach
of the internet with the personal support and guidance that ensures
your career is managed discreetly and with clear focus by experienced
professionals who are accessible to you and understand your requirements

community directly via epcglobal.com. As a member of this community
