I am offered for a Material Planner/Procurement position in an O&G service company. May I know what is the future prospect of a material planner/procurement engineer in O&G or any other industry? BTW I am a fresh grad with mechanical engineering degree, not sure if I make a correct decision to take this offer... very confusing right now

QUOTE(kevin1mil @ Jun 12 2008, 09:23 PM) Hmmm, well material planner and procurement mainly is to manage between Vendor and Client. Mainly dealing with bidding process, preparing quesionaire to pre-select some of the vendor. So if you are a fresh grad and if you think u not a very technical person maybe it could suit your needs but after few years you might forget how to design a valve or pipe, your job is mainly preparing documents for vendor to bid and to help client to choose which vendor and the procurement process took quite a lot of details also. Anyway its a challenging job too cos it deal with money hahha..... as for future palnner u can become Contract manager cos you will deal with a lot of contract between client and vendor. But it just base on my own opinion just as a reference, the choice is still in your hand. Thanks for your reply, I have decided to accept the offer. Actually I would prefer a position involved more on technical stuff as my first job, but I guessed learning how to deal with people ain't that bad also  I hope i made a wise decision
