<p>Hi guys I need to find a contact for an interview from the Colorado school of mines. Does anybody know someone from the Colorado school of Mines that I can interview.</p>
A warning to those interested to go into oil or gas or mining. Oil and gas we had so far massive layoffs. Many companies have cancelled job offers and internships to students at the Colorado School of Mines (CSM) and other schools due to low oil prices. These layoffs (over 100,000 by now) started last year and keep going through this year with Shell, Chevron, BP, ConocoPhillips and other companies having very very limited hiring (mostly PhDs) and massive layoffs. The CSM most likely will not give you or give you very little financial aid. Try other majors such as Mechanical Engineering or Chemical Engineering that can provide you a job by graduation. I was lucky to be a student at CSM with internships at big oil (Shell, ExxonMobil) and finding a job in oil and gas was a nightmare. Going to CU Boulder or other engineering school maybe more cost effective and will provide you the same job and same salary as a graduate from CSM. Good luck.
Over a year old post. No need to dredge this up when you’ve already said the same thing on multiple threads.
