The employment direction of geology is mainly in the following aspects:
Geology team, mainly running the field, the use of geological methods, physical methods, geochemical methods, as well as geological remote sensing to find minerals, mostly concentrated in the metal minerals, such as China University of Petroleum, mainly engaged in the exploration of oilfields. It is very hard to go out to the field for 1 or 2 months. In the north, the time spent in the field in a year is about 6 months or even longer, and in the south, the time spent in the field is even longer. The details depend on the size of the project, and there is a certain field subsidy.
Survey and Design Institute, also need to run some of the field, but more technical guidance, out of the time is generally very long, and the geology team is similar to the situation, the difference is that: the survey institute a month there will be 6 days or so, left to the free arrangement. Treatment compared to the geology team will be better.
Mining enterprises, do not like to go out in the field can be to the mining enterprises, due to the existence of mining enterprises, often lead to the development of the surrounding areas of economic and cultural development. Like Panzhihua in Sichuan, Datong in Shanxi, Jinchuan in Gansu, Chenzhou in Hunan and other mining cities belong to this model. However, the general scale of mining enterprises is often insufficient to form too large a scale, most can only be formed compared to the local economy is developed some of the township.
(I once interned in Huangshaping, Chenzhou, Hunan province, which is a town of 20,000,000 people, with basic cultural, entertainment and economic facilities. It is 7 kilometers away from the county town, and many technicians live in the county town and work in the mining area. (I've seen Mercedes and BMWs many times during my internship). The best way to get a job in a mining company is to be careful, and it's a good idea to actually look at the mine environment, the size, the benefits and the treatment of the technicians.
No matter what unit of employment, undergraduate out of a year after the matter of assistant engineers, and then after four years after the examination of engineers, about four years after the examination of senior title, that is, senior engineer. After the examination on the senior engineer, they can take some private work, money faster, but still need to go out in the field, this is the nature of the work of the industry decided, many 50 years old senior engineers, and even professorial senior engineers have to go to the field work in person.
The nature of the work of this industry is such that it is more difficult, relatively high income, to the field after the situation depends on the treatment of the specific unit, some of the better will be rented private housing, there is a certain amount of field subsidies such as meals, the benefits are not very good may be a bit more arduous, tents or their own construction of a simple place to live. I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this.
The actual inspection, employment, more than ask the unit specifics, this is very important!
Haihe University of Geology is good, there is a certain competitive strength, it is recommended that the employment of some high profile, good luck!
I hope you can help.
I hope this will help you.
