"ARAMCO"

Working at the Saudi Oil Company "ARAMCO" actually is my future job. In fact, many of the Saudi citizens dream to get a job in that company since it is the best place you may imagine; it will provide you all the benefits you dream to have. This company is located in Dahran city, which is one of the largest industrial cities in Saudi Arabia.

For me, it seems a little difficult to get a job there, because this company specializes in oil and petroleum businesses, and I am a student at the school of pharmacy; therefore, the medical or health jobs are not available in this place at least for now. However, one of their future plans is to create a hospital in order to offering its services to the ARAMCO staff, and this is my opportunity to have a business that matches with my study experience. The things that make working in this place quite special are great salary, medical insurance for the employees and their families. 60 day off-working every year, free Villas, academic scholarships for employees' children, and when retiring, the employee has the right to get what they call a "golden check" which means the employee gets $100,000.

The only advantage about careers in ARAMCO is that working in it usually takes 18 hours per day, and surely this is too much work. Otherwise, this is something we could understand since if we want to enjoy all these benefits, we sometimes have to lose a little bit of our free time.
